About Kalki 2898 AD
Nag Ashwin's Telugu mythological sci-fi film was one of his most ambitious projects yet. Other than Big B, the film also had Deepika Padukone and Prabhas in key roles.
Set against the backdrop of a dystopian future, it was the first film in the Kalki Cinematic Universe.
Nag Ashwin had shared details of Kalki 2898 AD's sequel that it is set to go on floors in December 2025, at the re-release event of his debut directorial Yevade Subramanyam.
Nag Ashwin had also said, "The second part will have more of Prabhas, as it will be majorly centred around the Karna and Ashwatthama characters."
The sequel will largely focus on Kamal Haasan's character Supreme Yaskin.
In A Nutshell
