Prabhas was introduced as Bhairava from the epic sci-fi extravaganza Kalki 2898 AD through a special poster, last month.
The poster also showed the Holi place Kasi from the future. Today, the makers released a character introduction glimpse of another lead role played by Big B Amitabh Bachchan.
Big B is introduced as Guru Drona’s son Ashatthama. It shows his two get-ups as young Aswatthama and the old man.
A kid who enters his place where he is performing Tapas to Lord Shiva enquires him who he is actually. Is he immortal, since despite being shot, he still is alive?
“The time has come now… My final battle begins now…Since the last age, I have been waiting for the coming of the avatar…” says he as he disappears from the place.
Big B stuns in two looks, and the AI technology is well-utilized to design the younger version of Ashwatthama.
Nag Ashwin is surprising every time with each update of Kalki 2898 AD. And the way he introduced Big B’s character heightens the curiosity for the next update.
The visuals captured by Djordje Stojiljkovic are world-class, whereas the background score by Santhosh Narayanan enhances the overall experience.
The movie produced grandly by Aswani Dutt on Vyjayanthi Movies is in the post-production phase now.
