Audiences were treated to a sneak peek of the highly anticipated film 'Kalki 2898 AD' with the release of its captivating trailer, promising an exhilarating journey into the realms of science fiction.
Set against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic world plagued by scarcity, where even water is a precious commodity, the 2.51-minute trailer seamlessly merges Indian mythology with futuristic visuals and VFX. Amitabh Bachchan, the stalwart of Bollywood, takes on the role of Ashwatthama, a guardian determined to shield Deepika Padukone's character, who is depicted as expectant with child, in a bid to thwart the dominion of Saswata Chatterjee's character, who presides over a sanctuary equipped with all the necessities for survival.
Prabhas, the Telugu sensation, portrays a morally ambiguous character, operating under the command of Chatterjee's persona. As the trailer unfolds, audiences are treated to a climactic clash between Bachchan's and Prabhas's characters, promising an epic showdown of titanic proportions.
Director Nag Ashwin expressed his elation, stating, "Today, my heart swells with myriad emotions. As a filmmaker, I've always been captivated by the rich tapestry of Indian mythology and the allure of science fiction. Bringing these elements together in 'Kalki 2898 AD' has been a dream realized, thanks to the unwavering dedication and immense talent of our cast and crew."
He also acknowledged the arduous journey undertaken during the film's production, remarking, “It has taken us a lot to witness this day. From our producers and star cast to the brilliant creative minds and the entire crew of ‘Kalki 2898 AD’, each person has poured his/her heart and soul into this film. We hope the trailer makes the Telugu audience and the entire nation proud, leaving them excited for what is to come”, he added.
Produced by Vyjayanthi Movies, 'Kalki 2898 AD' is slated to grace the silver screen on June 27, promising an enthralling cinematic experience that transcends boundaries.
