India TV’s Sakshi Verma wrote in her review, “The writing of Kalki 2898 AD is the USP of this film. With Mrunal Thakur, Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan SS Rajamouli and Ram Gopal Verma’s cameos to several mythological references like, Surya Putra Karna, rebel star to ‘wind set down’ phenomena with Deepika, Kalki 2898 AD has depth in its writing. However, the first half does seem a bit stretched. Few scenes could have been sharper. Bhairava and Roxy’s angle as a subplot is a waste and their song was too much of a fear that came true. Probably a South Indian movie ritual, that even Nag Ashwin could not ignore. However, the makers compensate for the same with one of the biggest highlights of the film, DP’s plot before the interval.”

She further wrote, “Kalki 2898 AD is a pure build-up for what’s coming next in the sequel. The film is purely fictional but makes you believe that it is reality. Its larger-than-life spectacle transports you to Kashi, Complex and Shambala.” Directed by Nag Ashwin, the film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Prabhas, Disha Patani and Kamal Haasan. The movie was released on June 27 in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam and Kannada languages.
