The anticipation surrounding the magnum opus Kalki 2898 AD has reached a fever pitch. This ambitious project, directed by Nag Ashwin and produced by Vyjayanthi Movies, promises to transport viewers to a futuristic world like never before. But beyond the dazzling visuals and star-studded cast lies a captivating backstory that adds depth to the film's journey.
Enter Kalki 2898 AD Chronicles, an exclusive interview series where the film's cast and crew pull back the curtain on their creative process. In this candid exploration, PAN India superstars and producers Swapna Dutt and Priyanka Dutt share their experiences, anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes insights.
One of the most intriguing revelations from the interview involves the legendary actor and politician, Mr. Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao (Mr. NTR). Kamal Haasan, a prominent figure in the film, sheds light on how Mr. C. Aswini Dutt, the owner of Vyjayanthi Movies, forged an unexpected connection with the megastar.
According to Kamal Haasan, Mr. Dutt's persistence paid off. He recounts, "Mr. Dutt stood outside NTR's house for days, determined to catch his attention. It was as if fate intervened. NTR noticed this young man, seemingly educated and passionate about cinema. Intrigued, he invited Mr. Dutt in, and thus began a remarkable association."
But that's not all. The name "Vyjayanti Films" itself carries a fascinating origin. It was none other than Mr. NTR who bestowed this iconic moniker upon the production house. A blend of elegance and tradition, the name resonates with the grandeur that Vyjayanthi Movies has come to symbolize.
The film has released in theatres and fans can revel in the knowledge that Kalki 2898 AD is more than just a sci-fi spectacle. It's a labor of love, fuelled by connections forged across time and passion that transcends boundaries. With Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani gracing the screen, this cinematic journey promises to be nothing short of epic.
