Dharma honcho Karan Johar dropped a new motion poster featuring Big B. In the photo, he can be seen sporting a rugged and rough look with cuts and bruises on his face. He can also be seen holding a 'sword of light'.

"Ek aisi Roshni jismein hai… har andhere ko haraane ki Shakti. Here comes GURU! The Wise Leader who holds the PRABHĀSTRA: The Sword of Light!," Karan captioned the poster.

Meanwhile, the trailer of 'Brahmastra' is all set to release on June 15.
