Helmed by Nag Ashwin, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is set in a dystopian world, where Kalki, the 10th incarnation of Lord Vishnu is poised to be born.
ETimes rated ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ 3 out of 5 and wrote, “‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is undeniably a larger-than-life visual spectacle that transports viewers into a vividly imagined universe. In fact, the film’s visual quality is so high that it overshadows many of its obvious flaws by engaging the audience into the atmospherics of the make-believe world of Kasi and the Complex. Moreover, it’s a concept that can spark imaginative experiences beyond the cinema. If you enjoy diving into a world of epic battles between Gods, good, and evil, then ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ offers quite a satisfying audio-visual experience, even though it may require some patience.”
