“I couldn’t believe my eyes; was I seeing an Indian film or a Hollywood blockbuster? The quality and visuals remain untouched. In a single word, congrats to the entire crew. I’m proud of you all, particularly Nag Ashwin. “Love you, man,” said one viewer.
“Stellar is an understatement.” Outstanding and engaging feat from Telugu cinema” said another.
A viewer described it as a “masterpiece” and said, “The graphics and set up are unlike anything seen in Indian film, and the plot is interesting. However, the writing has been produced thus far. Prabhas has a lively personality.”

Kalki 2898 AD: Negative Reviews
While many people thought the film was “outstanding,” others were unimpressed.
The film is “bearable” while Prabhas is not on screen. The world-building is fantastic, but the first half is uninteresting. And the comedy goes short! There were some cringe-worthy moments too!
So far, extremely poor! “Hoping for a better second half!” one social media user remarked after watching the first half.
“I watched #KALKI, and it was a disaster! The story was disjointed, and [Prabhas, Deepika] performed cringe-worthy performances. “How did this even get approved?” wrote another user.
Another observer described it as a “COMPLETE MESS” and “Heartbreak for Prabhas Lovers”. “Filled with Useless Roles to cover failure and Poor Direction, No script, Feels like Rajinikanth’s Kochadaiyaan, 200 Crore Loss Loading,” wrote another one.
Kalki 2898 AD, starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Hassan, has sparked a wide range of reactions since its nationwide release.
While many viewers have praised the film’s high-quality visuals, engaging plot, and Hollywood-level production values, others have been less impressed, citing issues with the storyline, direction, and performances.
The movie’s ambitious budget and collaboration with Hollywood for VFX have raised expectations, leading to mixed reviews.
Despite the polarizing opinions, Kalki 2898 AD has undeniably made a significant impact on audiences and continues to generate lively discussions on social media.
