Kalki 2898 AD (2024) - sci-fi meets Indian mythology

  • Summary

  • How does Kalki 2898 AD measure up to the sci-fi greats, and does it successfully blend Indian mythology with futuristic action? In this episode, we dive into the world of Kalki 2898 AD, a high-budget Indian sci-fi epic packed with action, mythology, and stunning visuals. Set in a dystopian future, the film follows a group of rebels, a bounty hunter, and a cursed immortal, all trying to protect a pregnant woman carrying a prophesied child from a totalitarian regime.

    While the movie impresses with its action sequences and grand set pieces, we explore its reliance on familiar tropes and its sometimes confusing mythology. From references to Star Wars and Mad Max to its homage to Indian culture and history, this film has it all. But does it manage to bring something fresh to the table, or does it get lost in the complexity of its storytelling?
