How Kalki 2898 AD Became An International Success
Here are the reasons I think that led to such a huge success of Kalki 2898 AD that led it to create 1200 crore rupees in a year.
- Star cast is one of the biggest advantages of the film. Audience of Indian cinema goes to see their favourite celebrity on the screen more than the actual film.
- To promote the film the creators aligned with developers to create an animation series on 2 of the most beloved characters in the film – “Bujji and bhairava”
- One of the most interesting storylines is of Kalki. They have adapted the scene and essence of Mahabharatha and ancient Indian mythology where they are depicting the future of this “Yug” or era.

Some of the reviews of Kalki 2898 AD are
“Kalki 2898 AD is one of the best movies I have seen this year. It has drama, fun education and it made me closer to my heritage. The movie has depicted Mahabharata beautifully and is totally a hit show. The movie has next level VFXs and it was so fun to watch. I will definitely be waiting for part 2.”
“The movie had the best VFX I have seen this year and the outstanding performance of AMITABH Bachchan. But I am really disappointed. Prabhas did a terrible job in the movie and I am really mad about it. He was too light-hearted for the film and his dialogue was too cheap. He was trying to be a “pookie character” and it did not sit right with me. The dialogues were weak and their delivery was worse. The worst part is the use of Roxie. Disha Patani is one of the best actresses in the industry and she was used as an object in the film and it broke my heart. I hope the creators make some changes in part 2.”
When Is Kalki 2 Coming Out?
Kalki 2898 AD is one of the biggest successes of 2024. People are excited over its part 2 and there is some insider information about it. According to the makers, part 2 is 60% ready.
