With only three days remaining until the release of the highly anticipated trailer of the upcoming sci-fi epic ‘Kalki 2898 AD’, the makers are leaving no stone unturned to heighten the excitement for the film. Today, a new poster featuring megastar Amitabh Bachchan in his Ashwatthama avatar was unveiled on social media.
The actor looks intriguing and battle-ready, holding his Astra and sporting a divine gem on his forehead. He’s seen standing in the middle of a battlefield with some men fallen on the ground, alongside a life-size vehicle behind him. Hinting that his wait is ending soon with the film’s trailer out in three days, the caption read, “His wait is ending… 3 days to go for #Kalki2898AD Trailer, Out on June 10th”
Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan’s character as Ashwatthama was unveiled through a monumental projection at Nemawar, Narmada Ghat in Madhya Pradesh. The selection of Nemawar and Narmada Ghat for this occasion held great significance as it is believed that Ashwatthama still walks the grounds of Narmada, further leaving fans excited for the film and the actor’s portrayal.
Featuring an ensemble star cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani in key roles, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is directed by Nag Ashwin and produced by Vyjayanthi Movies. A multilingual, mythology-inspired sci-fi spectacle set in the future, the film hits the screens on 27th June 2024.
According to reports, a grand trailer launch event will be held in Mumbai on June 9 with most of the starcast and crew attending the event. The trailer is expected to drop during the event itself. In addition, the makers of Kalki 2898 AD are reportedly planning to organise not one, but three events to promote the movie. After the trailer launch event in Mumbai, they are considering Delhi and Andhra Pradesh.
Promotional activities for the film include the makers gifting merchandise modelled after Prabhas’ Bhairava character and Bujji to children of stars. Kannada star Yash is reported to have received some merchandise from the film for his kids. It is clear that the makers are leaving no stone unturned to generate interest in the movie, with many online fans even declaring that the film could be India’s answer to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Kalki 2898 AD is set centuries into the future in a dystopian world and also has a touch of mythology in it along with science fiction elements.
