Rajinikanth’s blissful words have surely left Kalki 2898 AD’s director, Nag Ashwin, and his entire team speechless. The director replied to the superstar’s tweet and added how he feels blessed by his words.

Check out Nag Ashwin’s tweet:


The movie Kalki 2898 AD starring Prabhas in the lead role, is a sci-fi dystopian tale that is intertwined with mythological factors and epics. The movie originates from the end of the Kurukshetra war in the Mahabharata and how, 6,000 years later, the world has fallen to a distraught level and is run by a totalitarian god called Supreme Yaskin.

However, despite all hope for the lives of common people seeming to be at a loss, a new ray of sunshine lights upon them with the prophesied arrival of Kalki, the 10th avatar of Lord Vishnu. With the proclaimed god after the unborn child, an epic battle takes place between them, with a skilled bounty hunter called Bhairava also dead set on capturing the baby for his own personal gains.
