A passion project for writer-director Nag Ashwin, the film was shot over four years, interrupted at times due to the pandemic. More than 25 sets were built at Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City. Nitin Zihani Choudhary’s production design included working models of specially designed vehicles, like the fan-favorite, AI-augmented Bujji chase car.

Like last year’s Rrr, the Telegu-language Kalki has crossed over to a broad audience partly on the strength of its all-star cast, earning over $18M at the U.S. box office alone when it was released this past summer.

Could Kalki 2898 Ad Be India’s Biggest Contender for the Academy Awards? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Kalki 2898 Ad has been one of the biggest pan-Indian successes of 2024. It boasts an impressive cast, including Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, and others. The film significantly impacted the box office and on streaming platforms like Netflix. Recently, rumors circulated that Kalki 2898 Ad was being considered for an Oscars 2025 nomination.

According to these reports, the movie was being discussed for a potential nomination in the Best VFX category due to its cutting-edge visual effects and futuristic themes. However, this rumor is not valid. Despite the film’s high-quality VFX, the buzz about it being shortlisted for an Oscar nomination is false.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, which shared a list of potential Oscar 2025 nominees, Kalki 2898 Ad did not make it into the top 26 contenders for the prestigious awards. Additionally,...

The hit Indian science fiction film “Kalki 2898 Ad” is set to expand its universe with a sequel and new related projects, according to producers Swapna and Priyanka Dutt. “Kalki 2898” earned over $140 million globally since its release in 2024, making it the highest-grossing Indian movie that year.

Filming for the sequel is currently 35-40% complete, and the producers aim to finish by the end of 2025. “The first part did very well in India, North America, the UK and other areas,” said Swapna Dutt. “We want it to reach more audiences before the sequel comes out.”

In addition to a follow-up movie, the sisters plan to develop what they call the “Kalki Cinematic Universe” with multiple connected films. While not directly copying global franchises like Marvel, Swapna acknowledged the success of such properties provided learning experiences.

With a reported budget of 600 crore rupees (around $72 million), “Kalki 2898 Ad” featured stars like Amitabh Bachchan,...

Screening Kalki 2898 Ad at the Busan International Film Festival (Biff) this year, producers Swapna Dutt and Priyanka Dutt told Deadline that one of their goals is to secure distribution for the film in China and Korea.

Raking in $140M at box offices globally so far, sci-fi epic Kalki 2898 Ad is the highest-grossing Indian film of 2024. With a reported budget around 600 crore rupees ($72M), the film is also estimated to be one of the most expensive Indian movies ever made. The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani.

Kalki 2898 Ad sequel and other films in production

A second instalment is on the way and the producers, who are also sisters, said that around 35 to 40 percent of the shoot for the sequel have been completed. They intend to pick up production again in the second quarter of 2025 and complete the film by the end...

Join us as we dive into the mesmerizing world of Kalki 2898 Ad, screening at Busan, directed by Nag Ashwin! Set nearly 900 years in the future, this epic sci-fi saga features Prabhas as the morally ambiguous bounty hunter Bhairava and his trusty robot companion, Bujji (Keerthy Suresh), navigating the perilous, corruption-filled streets of Kasi.

Drawing inspiration from iconic films like Dune, Mad Max, and Baahubali, Kalki 2898 Ad is a visual feast. While the plot may feel chaotic at times, it delivers non-stop action and unforgettable set pieces, particularly the epic battles between Ashwatthama and Bhairava.

Disha Patani and Mouni Roy recently melted hearts with their adorable friendship moments on Instagram. Disha shared some sweet photos of the duo, capturing the essence of their bond.

Prabhas has indeed faced a rough patch with recent releases like Radhe Shyam and Adipurush, which failed to meet expectations both critically and at the box office. However, it’s worth noting that the trajectory of an actor’s career in the film industry can be unpredictable, and comebacks are always possible, especially for someone with a massive fan base like Prabhas.

His upcoming projects like Salaar, directed by Prashanth Neel (Kgf fame), and Kalki 2898 Ad (formerly Project K), directed by Nag Ashwin, hold significant promise. Both films have generated a lot of buzz due to their strong directors and high production values. If these movies resonate with audiences, they could very well mark Prabhas’ strong comeback and reestablish his dominance.

Amitabh Bachchan is enjoying some light-hearted moments on the sets of Kaun Banega Crorepati (Kbc) 16. The shared behind-the-scenes video shows him humorously interacting with his makeup artist and the audience. His witty comments, especially about the focus being on his nose, had everyone laughing. His playful exchange with an audience member, where he charmingly turned the attention back on her, highlights his natural charisma and ability to engage with his fans.

Aside from hosting Kbc, Amitabh Bachchan has been busy with significant film projects.

He was recently seen in Kalki 2898 Ad, a futuristic, mythology-inspired sci-fi film featuring an ensemble cast that includes Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, Prabhas, and others.

Additionally, he’s currently filming Vettaiyan, an upcoming movie directed by Tj Gnanavel, set to release in October. This film also stars Rajinikanth and other prominent actors, making it one of the most anticipated releases of the year.

The release of Kalki 2898 Ad has sparked significant debate among movie enthusiasts, with opinions sharply divided on its merits. While some hailed the epic science fiction film as a masterpiece, others were less impressed, feeling that Amitabh Bachchan’s portrayal of Ashwatthama was the film’s only redeeming feature. Among the critics is actor Arshad Warsi, who, in a recent interview, praised Amitabh Bachchan, calling him “unbelievable, unreal.” However, Warsi expressed disappointment with how Prabhas was portrayed in the film, bluntly stating that Prabhas came across as a “joker,” a remark that didn’t sit well with many, including Telugu actor Nani.

Nani responded strongly to Warsi’s comment, implying that Warsi was seeking attention and suggesting that this might be the most publicity Warsi has received in his career. This remark led to a significant backlash from Warsi’s fans, who quickly took to social media to defend the actor.

Kalki 2898 Ad, a dystopian sci-fi film by Nag Ashwin, is now available on both Netflix India and Prime Video India. The Hindi version streams on Netflix, while the original Telugu version and other regional languages are exclusive to Prime Video.

Naturally, concerns have been raised about the potential impact of these factors on the film’s box office prospects. While some trade analysts predict that the ‘A’ rating and extended duration could hinder the film’s commercial success,...

There are ample options at the ticket windows, but cine-goers have undisputedly picked their top favorite. Prabhas and Deepika Padukone‘s Kalki 2898 Ad continues its glorious run despite running way beyond a month in theatres. Ajay Devgn’s Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha witnesses growth due to Bogo, but it isn’t enough. Scroll below for a detailed analysis of ticket sales on BookMyShow within the last 24 hours.

Two more films arrived at the theatres on Friday – Ajay Devgn and Tabu led Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha and Janhvi Kapoor‘s Ulajh. Unfortunately, both films opened up to mixed reviews from the audiences and have struggled to bring decent footfalls to the ticket windows. The pre-booking sales did not live upto the expectations either, and the not-so-favorable word-of-mouth has made the journey more difficult!

Modern Masters: SS Rajamouli, directed by Raghav Khanna and Tanvi Ajinkya, is a documentary that takes us inside the mind of the prolific filmmaker and gives us a sneak peek into his entire creative process. I believe “Rajamoulis” are created when one is passionate about what one does and is not afraid to put in the hard work. I mean, if you love anything like Rajamouli loves films, you are bound to become successful. Here was a man who had spent his life on film sets, who had seen what it felt like when people didn’t come to watch the cinema you have created with so much hard work. He is the kind of man who knows what loss is and what it means to fail in life, and it could be said that his experiences have been his biggest teacher.
