Nag Ashwin’s latest release ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is doing great at the box office. The film ended on a cliffhanger, hinting at a sequel. When asked about the progress of the next film, Ashwin hinted that there is still a lot of action to happen.

In a recent exclusive interview with Diversity“We have shot for about 25 or 30 days, but there is still a lot of action left. It is almost like a new production is about to begin,” the ‘Mahanati’ director said.

When asked about the plot, Nag Ashwin said, “Every loose end or thread that we left hanging will have to be wrapped up. Obviously, the most important thing will be the face-off between these three, which will be between Yaskin who can now wield the Gandiva, which is considered the most powerful weapon, versus Karna and Ashwatthama, who are the most fearsome warriors.”

Ashwin also expressed his gratitude to fans for their love and support for the film. He said, “We are extremely happy and grateful that people have completely accepted the film and have watched it multiple times. This is really the measure of whether a film is successful or not.”

Directed by Nag Ashwin, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ stars Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, Shashwat Chatterjee and others.

The film is a modern adaptation of the Mahabharata. Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of the immortal warrior Ashwatthama, who is cursed, while Deepika Padukone plays Sumati, who is to become the mother of Kalki, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Kamal Haasan plays the main antagonist Supreme Yaskin.
