"Before the fans were saying it, we were also saying that ourselves. When we were shooting the sequence in 2019, we were also saying on sets. As we discovered the personality of the scientist, we said, 'Yaar, we have to do stuff. We have to do the origins story of the scientist!'," Ayan Mukerji was quoted as saying by Indian Express.
Moreover, Ayan Mukerji spoke of the character 'Dev' in Brahmastra Part One and revealed that the second part of Brahmastra will be all about Dev, the villain.

Talking about the character, Ayan said, ※I can answer very few things about Dev. The idea was to create a very clear indication about where we are going next with the storytelling. Now we are really getting into the story of our antagonist. Decoding it, giving you some hook to hang on to for part two. Dev is the fulcrum of the entire Brahmastra trilogy.§
Reportedly, titled Brahmastra Part 2 每 Dev will be released in December 2025.
