Ever since the trailer of Kalki 2898 AD was launched, audiences, industry insiders, critics, and fans of Prabhas have been buzzing with excitement. The film also features Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani in key roles.
Talking about his experience working with the team of Kalki, Bachchan had a few words to say, “I am honoured and have had the great privilege of being a part of this great enterprise in Telugu Cinema, Project K and to have had the huge honour of being in the same frame as the idol, Prabhas. Thank you all... and thank you, Nagi Sir, for thinking of me. The humility, the respect, and the concern Prabhas has given me has been so touching and emotional. Not for me, but for all those involved in Project K, may your hard work touch new horizons. Love and prayers.”
He also had a few compliments for Prabhas, he said, “Bahubali Prabhas, your generosity is beyond measure. You bring me home-cooked food, beyond delicious... you send me quantities beyond measure... could have fed an army. The special cookies, beyond scrumptious. And your compliments, beyond digestible. First day, first shot, first film with the 'Bahubali' Prabhas, and such an honour to be in the company of his aura, his talent, and his extreme humility... to imbibe, to learn.”
Kalki 2898 AD is directed by Nag Ashwin and releases in theatres on June 27
