Telugu star Nani has finally clarified if he will be a part of the Kalki 2898 AD sequel. Recently, the actor was promoting his upcoming movie, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, when he addressed rumours of joining the Nag Ashwin directorial. Nani clarified there is no truth to such reports and expressed that he isn’t sure about making in cameo in any film.
“I don’t know why this started — maybe it’s because of the close relationship I share with the whole team. But nothing has been discussed so far about me playing a cameo in the film. However, I would love to be in a Prabhas anna, Nagi’s, or Swapna’s film. They are all very close to me, but I’m not sure about doing a cameo. I haven’t actually thought about it, and I haven’t done any cameos in a long time. I have my own jazz going on non-stop. But you never know,” Nani said as quoted by Hindustan Times.
Asked if he will be playing the role of Lord Krishna in the sequel of the blockbuster movie, Nani shared, “Not at all. I think Nagi said this, they won’t be showing the face of Lord Krishna in the film, because Krishna’s image should be like that only in (silhouette) our head. So they will play with Arjuna and Karna, the most important characters.”
Directed by Nag Ashwin, Kalki 2898 stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan and Amitabh Bachchan in the lead. Released on June 27, the film gained an overwhelming response from the audience and has earned over Rs 1000 crore at the worldwide box office.
Recently, News18 Showsha exclusively reported that the shoot for Kalki 2898 AD 2 is likely to start in early 2025. At the Moscow International Film Week, producers and sister duo Priyanka Dutt (also Nag’s wife) and Swapna Dutt of Vyjayanthi Movies caught up with us and spilt the beans on the second instalment of the mythological sci-fi franchise. “The filming will start in the next five or six months (January or February 2025). Once it starts, we’ll be able to talk more about it,” Priyanka told us.
