Kalki 2898-AD
For a better Tomorrow
Directed by Nag Ashwin
Produced by Vyjayanthi Movies, Annapurna Studios
An epic, mythology-infused sci-fi action film that blends ancient Indian folklore with dystopian futurism, pitting redemption against self-interest across a desert wasteland.
In the year 2898 AD, around 6000 years after Kurukshetra war, Ashwatthama gears up for his final battle of redemption at the sign of hope in a dystopian world and Bhairava, a wisecracking and self-interested bounty hunter, tired of the perilous life becomes the hurdle in the process.
