This film has created a sensation at the box office, collecting over Rs. 1200 crores globally and setting new records. Recently, the makers have released this movie on OTT, bringing it to two platforms. Currently, on OTT, ‘Kalki’ is making new records and is trending as the second film globally. Let’s look into these details.
Trending on a Global Scale
The film ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has been available on OTT since August 22. The Kalki movie in South Indian languages, including Telugu, is streaming on Amazon Prime, while the Hindi version is available on Netflix. However, the Hindi version of ‘Kalki’ is soaring with record views on Netflix. It secured second place in the global trending list in non-English categories over the past week. The Hindi version of Kalki has achieved 4.5 million minutes viewed, as disclosed by Netflix sources. It’s being touted as the first Indian movie to achieve this feat in such a short time, indicating that ‘Kalki’ is also making waves globally on OTT.
Behind in Amazon
As known, the Kalki film is streaming in South Indian languages on Amazon. However, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ starring Prabhas is facing strong competition from ‘Raayan’, a film featuring Dhanush, which premiered on Amazon a day later on August 23. Despite this, ‘Raayan’ is trending at the top spot in India, pushing ‘Kalki’ to the second place on Amazon with more views. However, with many already having watched ‘Kalki’, ‘Raayan‘ is gaining popularity on OTT.
‘The Best of This Generation’…
Hero Siddharth has praised the ‘Kalki’ team. Recently posting about the film, he lauded Prabhas’s role as exceptional. “I really like Prabhas. His character Bhairava will always remain my favorite. His acting as Karnudu is wonderful. Nag Ashwin has done an excellent job. This is the best film of this generation. I can’t help but praise Nag Ashwin and Vyjayanthi Movies. The film made such collections because it’s truly a great cinema,” said Siddharth. Furthermore, Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, Rajamouli, and RGV made surprise cameo appearances in the Kalki film, delighting the audience.
Prabhas: The Biggest Star
Tamil star hero Vikram has praised hero Prabhas, who is making waves with pan-India films. Speaking in an interview about his latest film ‘Thangalaan‘, Vikram elevated Prabhas, saying, “Prabhas is now the biggest superstar in India. It’s not fair to just call him a Telugu hero.” Malavika, who also participated in the same interview, made intriguing remarks about Prabhas. She expressed joy at getting the opportunity to act with Prabhas in ‘Raja Saab‘ and praised him for transcending language barriers in cinema. She was amazed at the admiration audiences have for his films. Malavika clarified that the film ‘Raja Saab’ is set to mesmerize audiences at a pan-India level.
