Ending a story within two and a half hours is relatively straightforward. The key lies in pre-planning the start and end, especially when dealing with a movie split into two parts.
Concluding the first part becomes a challenging task, as it requires a climax that not only captivates the audience but also sets the stage for the second part seamlessly.
In the case of Kalki Part-1, the filmmakers are strategically preparing three climaxes.
Discussions are ongoing regarding the ending of Prabhas's Kalki movie, with three potential climax options under consideration.
This dilemma is common for Prabhas's films. Even in the Baahubali series, Rajamouli had admitted to facing confusion over the ending of the first part.
Prashant Neel, director of Salaar Part-1, also encountered a similar challenge and invested significant effort in creating multiple versions of the climax. Now, Kalki Part-1 follows suit in adopting this thoughtful approach.
Directed by Nag Ashwin, Kalki features Kamal Haasan as a villain.
The current speculation is that the first part will conclude with the introduction of his character, intertwining with mythological elements to provide a surprising twist in the climax.
The ongoing discussions will eventually determine which climax option is finalized for an impactful ending.
