The film was first conceived by Mukerji in 2011, with core elements inspired by Indian history and stories he heard in his childhood.

In ancient India, a group of sages in the [[Himalayas]] collide with the energy ''Brahm-shakti'', which produces many celestial weapons of great power called ''[[Astra (weapon)|astras]]''. The strongest among them, the ''[[Brahmastra|Brahmāstra]]'', has the capacity to destroy the world. The sages use their respective ''astras'' to tame the unstable ''Brahmāstra'' and become the ''Brahmansh'', a secret society to protect the world from the powers of ''astras''.
In present-day [[Mumbai]], [[Shiva (Āstraverse)|Shiva]], a [[disc jockey|DJ]], falls in love at first sight with Isha Chatterjee, a [[London]] resident who is visiting India for the [[Durga Puja]] festival at her grandfather's ''[[pandal]]''. Soon, Isha reciprocates and expresses her feelings for Shiva. Shiva tells her that he is an orphan who never knew his father, and that his mother died in a fire when he was a baby. Meanwhile, in [[Delhi]], scientist and ''Brahmānsh'' member Mohan Bhargav is attacked by Zor and Raftar for a piece of ''Brahmāstra'' he safeguards. Mohan fights back using the ''Vānarāstra'' but is ultimately subdued by Junoon, who works for the mysterious evil named Dev. Under Junoon's possession, who was using Vash Mukut, Mohan reveals that the second piece of ''Brahmāstra'' is protected by an artist and archaeologist named Anish Shetty in [[Varanasi]]. Before he can reveal the current location and ''[[guru]]'' of the ''Brahmānsh'' (A''shram''), Mohan throws himself out of a balcony.
Shiva has a vision of Mohan's encounter with Junoon, as she has a piece of Agneyāstra tied to her one hand, and Shiva is somehow connected to it. He and Isha head to Varanasi to warn Anish but are interrupted by Raftar, who now wields Mohan's ''Vānarāstra''. Anish defeats him using the ''Nandi Āstra'' before escaping with Shiva and Isha. While going to [[Himachal Pradesh]], where A''shram'' is located, they are chased by Junoon and Zor in a truck. Anish gives the second piece of the Brahmāstra to Shiva and stays to fight Junoon and Zor, only to be killed. Shiva and Isha are chased by Raftar to A''shram'' where Shiva kills him using his power of fire after he tried to kill Isha. At A''shram'', they learn about other ''astras'' and Shiva is forced to join ''Brahmansh'' by the ''guru'' Raghu for information on his parents. He meets other new recruits Rani, Raveena, Sher and Tenzing, who are all trained by Raghu on how to use their respective astras and Shiva also gains control over fire. As Junoon gets closer to them, Raghu reveals that Shiva is the son of former ''Brahmansh'' members, Dev and Amrita. Dev actually awoke the ''Brahmāstra'' as he was the only person who was able to control multiple ā''stras'' at once.
Dev's wife Amrita (pregnant with Dev's child), who wielded the ''Jalāstra'', defeated Dev in a battle on a remote island and both of them seemingly perished in the battle. Amrita's boat was found in the ruins of the battle, brought back from the island, with two broken pieces of the ''Brahmāstra''. The pieces of the ''Brahmāstra'' were given to both Mohan and Anish. The third piece was believed to be missing, with Raghu and Shiva concluding that they both survived the battle. The third piece of the ''Brahmāstra'' is in Amrita's ''Mayāstra'' disguised as a [[conch]] shell, which Raghu releases by dropping Shiva's blood on the conch. Junoon and her army arrive at Āshram for the ''Brahmāstra'' and hold everyone hostage. Shiva defeats Junoon while also killing Zor, who wielded Anish's ''Nandi Āstra'' and releases everyone. But Junoon manages to take the third piece from Isha. She seemingly sacrifices herself to activate the ''Brahmāstra''. The destruction begins and Isha is in danger, but Shiva gains control over the ''Brahmāstra'' with newfound strength stemming from his protectiveness and love of Isha and reunites with her.
In the [[post credits scene]], Due to Junoon having activated the Brahmāstra, Dev, who was imprisoned as a statue on an unknown island, is freed.

In ancient India, a group of sages in the [[Himalayas]] collide with the energy ''Brahm-shakti'', which produces many celestial weapons of great power called ''[[Astra (weapon)|astras]]''. The strongest among them, the ''[[Brahmastra|Brahmāstra]]'', has the capacity to destroy the world. The sages use their respective ''astras'' to tame the unstable ''Brahmāstra'' and become the ''Brahmansh'', a secret society to protect the world from the powers of ''astras''.
In present-day [[Mumbai]], [[Shiva (Āstraverse)|Shiva]], a [[disc jockey|DJ]], falls in love at first sight with Isha Chatterjee, a [[London]] resident who is visiting India for the [[Durga Puja]] festival at her grandfather's ''[[pandal]]''. Soon, Isha reciprocates and expresses her feelings for Shiva. Shiva tells her that he is an orphan who never knew his father, and that his mother died in a fire when he was a baby. Meanwhile, in [[Delhi]], scientist and ''Brahmānsh'' member Mohan Bhargav is attacked by Zor and Raftar for a piece of ''Brahmāstra'' he safeguards. Mohan fights back using the ''Vānarāstra'' but is ultimately subdued by Junoon, who works for the mysterious evil named Dev. Under Junoon's possession, who was using Vash Mukut, Mohan reveals that the second piece of ''Brahmāstra'' is protected by an artist and archaeologist named Anish Shetty in [[Varanasi]]. Before he can reveal the current location and ''[[guru]]'' of the ''Brahmānsh'' (A''shram''), Mohan throws himself out of a balcony.
Shiva has a vision of Mohan's encounter with Junoon, as she has a piece of Agneyāstra tied to her one hand, and Shiva is somehow connected to it. He and Isha head to Varanasi to warn Anish but are interrupted by Raftar, who now wields Mohan's ''Vānarāstra''. Anish defeats him using the ''Nandi Āstra'' before escaping with Shiva and Isha. While going to [[Himachal Pradesh]], where A''shram'' is located, they are chased by Junoon and Zor in a truck. Anish gives the second piece of the Brahmāstra to Shiva and stays to fight Junoon and Zor, only to be killed. Shiva and Isha are chased by Raftar to A''shram'' where Shiva kills him using his power of fire after he tried to kill Isha. At A''shram'', they learn about other ''astras'' and Shiva is forced to join ''Brahmansh'' by the ''guru'' Raghu for information on his parents. He meets other new recruits Rani, Raveena, Sher and Tenzing, who are all trained by Raghu on how to use their respective astras and Shiva also gains control over fire. As Junoon gets closer to them, Raghu reveals that Shiva is the son of former ''Brahmansh'' members, Dev and Amrita. Dev actually awoke the ''Brahmāstra'' as he was the only person who was able to control multiple ā''stras'' at once.
Dev's wife Amrita (pregnant with Dev's child), who wielded the ''Jalāstra'', defeated Dev in a battle on a remote island and both of them seemingly perished in the battle. Amrita's boat was found in the ruins of the battle, brought back from the island, with two broken pieces of the ''Brahmāstra''. The pieces of the ''Brahmāstra'' were given to both Mohan and Anish. The third piece was believed to be missing, with Raghu and Shiva concluding that they both survived the battle. The third piece of the ''Brahmāstra'' is in Amrita's ''Mayāstra'' disguised as a [[conch]] shell, which Raghu releases by dropping Shiva's blood on the conch. Junoon and her army arrive at Āshram for the ''Brahmāstra'' and hold everyone hostage. Shiva defeats Junoon while also killing Zor, who wielded Anish's ''Nandi Āstra'' and releases everyone. But Junoon manages to take the third piece from Isha. She seemingly sacrifices herself to activate the ''Brahmāstra''. The destruction begins and Isha is in danger, but Shiva gains control over the ''Brahmāstra'' with newfound strength stemming from his protectiveness and love of Isha and reunites with her.
In the [[post credits scene]], Due to Junoon having activated the Brahmāstra, Dev, who was imprisoned as a statue on an unknown island, is freed.
