In a climate which is not favourable for Bollywood films these days, Ayan Mukerji's 'Brahmastra' has managed to put up good box office numbers in first few days of its release. For some reason, Kangana Ranaut is finding it hard to accept these numbers and on multiple occasions, she has accused the makers of faking the box office collections of this project.

Recently, the actress took to her Instagram stories to question the hit status of 'Brahmastra' since it is still had a long way to go recover it's cost of making. She wrote, "The film has been declared the biggest hit at mere Rs 144 crore (cost 650 cr) this is only to put in perspective how movie mafia works. It’s they who decide which film will be declared a hit and which will be called a flop regardless of its collections or recoveries. They choose who to hype, who to boycott. Here they stand exposed.”

Previously, Kangana had slammed Ayan Mukerji for taking too long and wasting money on the production of 'Brahmastra'. She had stated, “Everyone who called Ayan Mukerji a genius should be jailed immediately… He took 12 years to make this film, he replaced 14 DOPs, he shot for more than 400 days for this film and changed 85 ADs and burnt 600 crores to ashes. Also tried to exploit religious sentiments by changing the film name from Jalaluddin Rumi to Shiva last minute, because of Bahubali success… Such opportunists, such creativity deprived people, success starved greedy people if called geniuses then it’s not manipulation but a well thought of strategy to call din ko raat and raat ko din…”
