The pan-India dystopian science fiction, Kalki 2898 AD, directed by Nag Ashwin is expected to hit a record-breaking opening at the box office. According to industry tracker Sacnik, the much-anticipated film could collect as much as Rs 200 crore worldwide on its first day itself. If achieved, the feat will not only be a record for 2024 but would also become the third-best opening day collection of all time.
Starring the biggest names in the Indian film industry, such as Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Amitabh Bachchan, among others, the film is gearing up for release on June 27 in 2D, 3D, and IMAX formats.
