The much-awaited film Kalki 2898 AD was released today across the world in multiple languages – Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam – and also in multiple formats – 2D, 3D and IMAX. The advance booking has been very encouraging and the IMAX shows especially are much in demand. Sadly, many excited moviegoers who turned up to watch the morning show of Kalki 2898 AD’s Hindi version in several IMAX theatres faced disappointment as these shows were not played.

A multiplex official said, “To start the film in a theatre, a KDM (Key Delivery Message) which is like a passkey, needs to be issued by the distributor. Only then the film can be accessed and played for the viewers. Many IMAX theatres didn’t get the KDM for the Hindi version of Kalki 2898 AD. Hence, they couldn’t play the morning show. The exhibitors had no choice but to refund the amount.”

The source continued, “Many tickets were sold as it’s one of the biggest films of the year. The patrons were highly upset about knowing that the show was not happening. Some even got agitated. But we were helpless. Let’s hope the KDM arrives so that at least the afternoon shows can be played.”

Bollywood Hungama also got reports that the IMAX show in Tamil version in Chennai also wasn’t played due to the same reason. It is, however, not clear how many screens of IMAX didn’t play the morning show of Kalki 2898 AD’s Hindi version. The source, however, added, “The Telugu shows of Kalki 2898 AD in IMAX, however, were played without any problem as its KDM was delivered in time.”

A few days ago, Bollywood Hungama reported that on the morning of Monday, June 24, the distributor of Kalki 2898 AD asked exhibitors to keep the IMAX bookings on hold. Accordingly, the theatres stopped selling tickets. On Monday evening, the exhibitors were allowed to resume ticket sales and were informed that only the 2D version would be played in IMAX.

Kalki 2898 AD stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan and Disha Patani. It is directed by Nag Ashwin and backed by C Aswani Dutt of Vyjayanthi Movies.
