It is worth noting that Kalki 2898 AD has not performed as well as expected in the Telugu language. But it has made a splash at the box office in the cow belt. With this film, Nag Ashwin has joined the ranks of the biggest Indian film directors along with SS Rajamouli, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and Karan Johar. Obviously, the fans are upset to hear this. Their reactions are also being seen.

‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has performed well in theaters for two weeks and its box office collection has not been hampered due to no major release, but this streak is likely to end today as the dystopian science-fiction will face big competition from Kamal Haasan’s ‘Indian 2’ and will also clash with Akshay Kumar’s ‘Sarfira’. On the 15th day of its release, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ earned Rs 6.7 crore at the domestic box office. The total collection of the film has reached Rs 543.45 crore.
