MUMBAI: There has been so much conjecturing and guesswork about who would play the role of Dev in the Ayan Mukerji directorial Brahmastra 2, which stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in the lead. Recent reports had indicated that KGF star Yash was roped in to portray the character. Karan Johar has now broken his silence over the casting of Dev.
When Subhash K Jha asked Dharma Productions head to confirm the reports of Yash being considered for Dev in Brahmastra 2, Karan denied the rumours saying, "This is all rubbish. We haven’t approached anyone.”
Earlier, rumours were saying that the makers of Brahmastra were keen to bring Hrithik Roshan on board as Dev. However, it seems that since he was already packed with two VFX heavy films, Krrish 4 and Ramayana, he, apparently, refused the film offer.

However, this new report states that the makers are still considering Hrithik and he is one of the top contenders for the role. Hrithik, too, is very excited to portray the character. But the possibilities seem minimal as Hrithik will be busy with his own superhero Krrish franchise. If Krrish 4 goes on floor in the next 6 months, it is highly unlikely that Hrithik will give his nod to the project.
We have heard that Ranveer Singh is eyeing the role of Dev if Hrithik decides to opt out of it. Earlier reports had suggested that Ranveer and Deepika Padukone would lead the cast, along with the Part 1 pair, Ranbir and Alia. While it is sure that Ranbir and Alia will be seen as their respective characters from Part 1, it is yet to be confirmed whether Ranveer and Deepika are doing the film.
