More about Kalki 2898 AD
Kalki 2898 AD marks the end of the Kurukshetra War of the Mahabharata, marking the beginning of Kaliyuga in 3102 BC. After the war, Ashwatthama is entrusted by Lord Krishna with the responsibility of protecting the last incarnation of Lord Vishnu when the time comes.
Six thousand years later, in 2898 AD, the world has been transformed into a harsh dystopia, overrun by a self-proclaimed deity known as Supreme Yaskin. While most people attempt to appease him in hopes of gaining access to his bountiful lands, known as the Complex, others rise up in rebellion against his tyranny.
As hope begins to fade, a new light emerges in the form of an unborn child raised by SUM-80, also known as Sumathi. With Yaskin and his followers determined to extract the child’s life force, an epic story unfolds, setting the stage for the rest of the saga.
The first installment starred Prabhas in the lead role and also featured Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan in lead roles. As Deepika has reportedly opted out of the project, rumors suggest that Sai Pallavi may replace her in the sequel.
While Prabhas is currently working on Fauji and Spirit, he is expected to join the shooting of Kalki 2 later.
