According to early estimates, Kalki 2898 AD is expected to earn Rs 65 crore on the second day at the Indian box office. This is a very good hold, as the second day is Friday, not Saturday, which is usually the case with films releasing on Friday. The total collection of two days at the Indian box office is approximately Rs 166 crore. Kalki 2898 AD is headed to earn Rs 310-320 crore in the four-day extended weekend.
Hindi version performed the best, grossing Rs 42 crore in 2 days
The Hindi dubbed version held up the best, and collections remained at the same level as the first day. A 10-15 percent drop from Thursday would have been a pretty acceptable trend, but remaining steady is a good sign for the film’s prospects. The two-day nett numbers for the Hindi version of the Prabhas starrer are around Rs 42 crore and it could reach the Rs 100 crore mark over the four-day weekend as expected.
Kerala is the best in South, position of Telugu states falls
In South India, the biggest hold was seen in Kerala, where the second day’s business was almost equal to the first day. Telugu states saw a decline on the second day, which is normal. Nizam is expected to earn Rs 14 crore on Friday, which is almost half of the first day, while Andhra Pradesh saw a decline of 60 percent.
Tamil Nadu and Karnataka also remained in a good position and will witness gains during the weekend.

About Kalki 2898 B.C.
Kalki’s story begins with the end of the Mahabharata’s Kurukshetra War in 2898 BC, which marks the beginning of Kali Yuga in 3102 BC. After the events of the Mahabharata, Ashwatthama is tasked by Lord Krishna to protect his final incarnation when the time is right.
6000 years later, in 2898 A.D., the world has become terrifying for most people who live in fear of a proclaimed deity known as Supreme Yaskin. While most people attempt to please him and find a humble abode in his resourceful land called the Complex, others rebel against him and his atrocities.
As all rays of hope seem to be lost for the people, a new light appears in the form of an unborn baby in the womb of SUM-80 aka Sumati. As Yaskin and his followers set out to extract the source of life from the child, an epic story begins that determines the rest of the film.
