Vyjayanthi Films shared an image of their latest blockbuster, Kalki 2898 AD, which has stormed the box office with record-breaking numbers. The film, released in multiple languages including Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam, raked in an impressive Rs 95 crore nett in India on its first day, with a global collection of Rs 191.5 crore. The Telugu version led the pack with a collection of Rs 64.5 crore, followed by Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. Kalki 2898 AD's first-day performance surpassed last year's blockbuster, Jawan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, and now stands as the third-highest opener in Indian cinema, outperforming Yash's KGF Chapter 2. Despite its success, the film falls short of the nett collection records set by Baahubali 2 and RRR. Set in a dystopian world inspired by Hindu scriptures, Kalki 2898 AD features a stellar cast including Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani.
