Review and Box office collection of Kalki 2898 AD, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Disha Patani, Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan’s Kalki 2898 AD has been released. The film has been directed by well-known South director Nag Ashwin. Kalki’s story is of a time when the world is completely turned upside down. What is needed is hope and this hope comes through Deepika Padukone (Sumati) and this is a part of project. Amitabh Bachchan(Ashwatthama) becomes the savior of this ray of hope through Deepika Padukone. Kamal Haasan is also looking for Deepika Padukone. Prabhas(Bhairava)is playing bounty hunter, who also wants to take Deepika’s life but for his own benefit.
The director has tried his best to show the audience a world which is rarely seen in Indian cinema. But this is where the problem gets stuck. This world seems inspired by many Hollywood and Bollywood films. This world seems borrowed and it has been borrowed from Padmavat, Mad Max, Transformers, Avengers, Avatar and many such blockbuster films. Only the second half of the film is strong in which we get to see something, Otherwise the director seems to be completely creating the atmosphere for Kalki 2. After the film ends, the only thing that comes to mind is that this is Amitabh Bachchan’s film.
Talking about acting in Kalki 2898 AD, the stars do not have much scope because these are heroes and emotions are just technology. If we talk about the characters, the one whom we keep an eye on throughout the film is Ashwatthama that means Amitabh Bachchan. Seeing this film, it does not seem that this film is of Prabhas. She seems completely dedicated to Amitabh Bachchan from every angle and what she has done is one of her best roles.
Prabhas is an action star, but the director makes him do comedy. When the whole atmosphere is serious then who knows in which world it shows Prabhas. Any actress would have played the role of Deepika Padukone exactly like this. To see Kamal Haasan in full form, we will have to wait for Kalki 2.
