Kalki 2: Not in Near Future At All!

While it was always expected that Kalki would be a huge deal for Prabhas, the film exceeded expectations at the box office and went on to become a Rs 1000 crore grosser. Usually, when there is a 1000 crore grosser at the box office, the director and hero are determined to make the sequel.

But in the case of Kalki, the exact opposite is happening as both Nag Ashwin and Prabhas have started to trek on completely different routes. While Nag is busy with the scripting for the second part which is likely to take another year or two based on his work rate, Prabhas is busy with other films.

Prabhas has Raja Saab which is already in the making while the film with Sandeep Reddy Vanga – Spirit is also in the horizon and is bound to happen in the near future. We then Hanu Raghavapudi’s ongoing Fauzi as well. Prashanth Neel’s Salaar 2 also might happen in the future. By the looks of it, Prabhas’s calendar is completely full for the time being and he doesn’t have many free dates at the moment.

This makes it clear that Nag Ashwin might have to wait for a fair amount of time if he intends to make Kalki 2 with Prabhas. The chances are that he might be vacant for shootings only towards the latter half of 2026 which is rather a fair way away from now.
