Big B is receiving widespread love and praise for his performance as the immortal ‘Ashwatthama’. ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ got a bumper opening.
According to the makers, the film grossed Rs 191.5 crore at the box office across languages ​​on its opening day. Directed by Nag Ashwin, this post-apocalypse film is inspired by Hindu scriptures and is set in the year 2898 AD.
Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, Prabhas and Disha Patani are also a part of the film. The film is a mythology-inspired sci-fi film set in the future. The makers held a grand event in Mumbai ahead of the film’s release on June 27. During the event, Big B shared his experience of working in the film and how he felt after hearing the script. He also praised the film’s director Nag Ashwin for coming up with such a great concept.
He said, “Naagi came and explained the idea of ​​Kalki 2898 A.D. After he left, I thought, what is Naagi drinking? It’s very humiliating to even think about something like this. The visuals you have just seen are unbelievable. It’s amazing how someone could have imagined such a futuristic project.”
Big B said, “Whatever Nag Ashwin may have thought, he really pulled together all the ingredients and effects to suit his vision. Working for Kalki 2898AD has been an amazing experience, which I will never forget.”
