Nag Ashwin’s much-anticipated sci-fi epic, Kalki 2898 AD, featuring an ensemble cast including Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Haasan, has taken the box office by storm. Released on June 27, the film earned a whopping ₹191.5 crore worldwide on its opening day. The excitement didn’t taper off as the film continued its strong performance into its second day, bringing the total worldwide gross to an impressive ₹298.5 crore in just two days.
The team behind Kalki 2898 AD shared their success on social media, with a celebratory poster on X (formerly known as Twitter), highlighting the film’s remarkable box office performance. The overwhelming response from fans and critics alike has set the film on a trajectory to break multiple records in the coming days.
According to sacnilk.com, the film has already made ₹149.3 crore nett in India alone within two days of its release. Given its Thursday premiere, a significant increase in box office numbers is expected over the weekend.
Producer Swapna Dutt Chalasani addressed the comparisons between Kalki 2898 AD and other blockbuster Telugu films. She expressed that the primary motivation behind making the film was not to break records but to create a piece of cinema for the audience’s enjoyment. “It’s very amazing that people are calling or asking, ‘Did we cross records?’ It’s hilarious because guys who create or created these records never make films for the records. We make for the audience. We make for the love of cinema. We did the same,” she said.
Adding to the film’s accolades, superstar Rajinikanth watched Kalki 2898 AD and shared his admiration on X. He praised the film and expressed his eagerness for the sequel. “Watched Kalki. WOW! What an epic movie! Director @nagashwin7 has taken Indian Cinema to a different level. Hearty congratulations to my dear friend @AswiniDutt @SrBachchan @PrabhasRaju @ikamalhaasan @deepikapadukone and the team of #Kalki2898AD. Eagerly awaiting Part 2. God Bless,” Rajinikanth wrote.
The narrative intertwines with the Mahabharata, set 6000 years into the future. Amitabh Bachchan plays Ashwatthama, a character seeking redemption by aiding Kalki, the final avatar of Vishnu. Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan take on the roles of SUM-80 and Supreme Yaskin, respectively, adding depth to the star-studded cast.
