More about 'Kalki 2898 AD'

Directed by Nag Ashwin, 'Kalki 2898 AD' draws heavily from Mahabharata, set in a dystopian future. The story revolves around four central characters: Sumathi (Deepika Padukone), Ashwatthama (Amitabh Bachchan), Yaskin (Kamal Haasan), and Bhairava (Prabhas).

Amitabh Bachchan's portrayal of Ashwatthama garnered praise, with the actor humorously recalling his initial reaction during the film's pre-release press conference, 'When Nag Ashwin came and explained his idea to me, for the long time after he left I was thinking, ‘what the hell is Nagi drinking?'.
