Zero Buzz & Zero Hopes On 'Kalki 2898 AD'! Why?
But insiders claim that the shooting is yet to be completed and the post-production works are going on in different countries. Also, promotions for such a big film should have started already
The audience expected a lot from the summer of 2024. But all the big films which were supposed to set the cash registers ringing are getting postponed one after the other. The team of 'Pushpa: The Rule' announced long back that they will be arriving on 15th August. As we know, Ram Charan's 'Game Changer' may arrive during the Dasara festive season. On top of everything, NTR's action-packed 'Devara' which was supposed to arrive on 5th April got postponed to 10th October.
The only big film that is up for release in the summer is Prabhas' magnum opus 'Kalki 2898 AD'. This is one of the costliest films made in India and people are hoping that this movie's arrival will compensate for all the delays. But the hope of the movie getting released on 9th May is fading away with each passing day. Though the makers have not indicated anything, people are not hoping that it will arrive on time.
'Kalki' is set in a dystopian era and it involves science fiction as well. Big names like Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Hassan, Deepika Padukone and others are involved in this movie. The team is planning to release this film on an international scale. If the movie is really getting released on 9th May, the shooting should have been wrapped up by now and the VFX works were supposed to be in full swing.
But insiders claim that the shooting is yet to be completed and the post-production works are going on in different countries. Also, promotions for such a big film should have started already. Rajamouli is known for starting promotions 4-5 months ahead of the release and bringing a lot of hype. But 'Kalki 2898 AD' team is not making such efforts. There is not a lot of hype in this film despite having such big names. With everyone being so silent, people are assuming that it will be postponed soon. We need to wait and see if this crazy project arrives on time or will the people's assumptions end up being true.
