Brahmastra became a box office success but also entertained people with various memes and videos about the film. One of the videos, posted to Instagram by a girl who often imitates Alia Bhatt, pokes fun at the way character actress Isha uses the name Shiva throughout the film. Alia stated that the video was funny and not offensive.
‘Brahmastra’ director Ayan Mukerji and Ranbir Kapoor, who played Shiva, revealed why Isha keeps screaming ‘Shiva’. They exposed Ranbir when the Brahmastra team had a group chat called “Brahmastra Feedback” where everyone shared reviews, memes, critiques and made fun of themselves. Ranbir says everyone enjoyed the process because such discussions only happen when films become part of popular culture.

In an interview with NDTV, Alia Bhatt responded to a popular Instagram video of her talking: “This is one of my favorites. There is a girl who imitates me. Chandni, she imitates me very well. She performs meme of alia from the Brahmastra. She talks about my voice, and she is awesome”. Ayan explained the reason for the conversation, saying, “People making fun of this . But I think when I talk,I keep taking people’s name.So that also stayed in the script and got into the movie.”
Ranbir Kapoor said, “I want to tell the public that Alia and I always ask Ayan, ‘Yar, her name is Isha, my name is Shiva, should we keep saying the name?’ But Ayan told, “If they are in love, they are free to name their loved ones. And I think it makes sense.” Ranbir and Alia also explained that this is not the case in real life . Not only this They get worried that they might have done something wrong when others take their name.
