Movie Review
India TV's Sakshi Verma wrote in her review, "Kalki 2898 AD is a pure build-up for what's coming next in the sequel. The film is purely fictional but makes you believe that it is reality. Its larger-than-life spectacle transports you to Kashi, Complex and Shambala." Directed by Nag Ashwin, the film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Prabhas, Disha Patani and Kamal Haasan. The movie was released on June 27 in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam and Kannada languages.
