Prabhas in Kalki 2898 AD
The Big Picture After months of build-up, the epic Indian tent-pole Kalki 2898 AD was released this week to blockbuster box office response in theaters worldwide. Billed as a science-fiction spectacle with elements of Hindu mythology, Kalkidelivered the third-biggest global box office debut in Indian cinema history, in addition to delivering the best stateside debut for an Indian movie ever. With a $5.5 million opening day haul that also includes preview figures, Kalki overtook the $5.
Kalki's box office performance marks not only a much-needed return to form for the struggling Indian box office, but also for Prabhas himself. After the global success of Baahubali 2, the star appeared in a string of big-budget bombs, with Salaar ending the sorry streak last year. Kalki was an acid test for him, and while it's still early days, the movie is clearly off to an encouraging start.
Kalki is being screened in multiple Indian languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, and English. India has several film industries that operate independently of each other, although occasionally, talent actors and filmmakers from across the diverse country come together to create what is popularly known as a "pan-Indian film." Kalki is one of them, a movie designed to play in every corner of the country, and also abroad.
