In the realms of anticipation, Nag Ashwin's forthcoming venture, Kalki 2898 AD, stands as one of the eagerly awaited projects of the iconic Prabhas. Veiled in secrecy, the team has guarded the storyline, yet a glimpse was shared by Nag himself at a rendezvous held within the hallowed halls of IIT Bombay. Amidst the event's splendor, a spontaneous call to Prabhas upon a fan's request became the talk of the evening, but amidst the buzz, Nag divulged some insights.


Dispelling notions, Nag addressed the inevitable comparison drawn between Kalki 2898 AD and the venerable Star Wars franchise. With clarity, he proclaimed, "Kalki is not Star Wars. It's India's very own - Project K, Kalki, a singular cinematic journey; that's the essence we aim to encapsulate." While dismissing notions of a parallel universe expansion, he did nod encouragingly at the prospect of a sequel, buoyed by a fan's fervent theory.

The arsenal of Kalki 2898 AD sparked debate post its teaser release. Nag elucidated the challenges faced in crafting these futuristic armaments. "We forged these weapons from imagination, grappling with trial and error due to the absence of reference points," he revealed. Stressing their uniqueness, Nag emphasized, "Our endeavor was to birth originality; these arms were not mere recreations but bespoke creations. VFX will further embellish their essence, addressing feedback to enhance their visual impact."

Intriguingly, despite its sci-fi essence, Kalki 2898 AD intertwines with ancient mythology. The choice of 'Kalki' as the film's title holds a deeper significance, as Nag articulated, "Kalki signifies the ultimate manifestation of Vishnu. Beyond its futuristic setting, the film threads a narrative that weaves into our historical tapestry, an element to be unveiled on the screen - a connection to our past in a future tale."

Beyond Prabhas, the stellar ensemble of Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani adorn this cinematic voyage. With filming underway, the curtains are set to rise on this spectacle in the impending year, promising a fusion of futuristic wonder and mythological resonance.
