Director Nag Ashwin shared a major update regarding the progress of Kalki 2, confirming that the production team is actively preparing for the next phase of filming. According to Aakashavaani, Nag Ashwin said, “Kalki 2 has already begun. We are making preparations to continue shooting from next month and complete it at a rapid pace.”
The sequel will bring back the trio of Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Haasan. To ensure the heavy visual effects, complex action design, and intricate world-building match the scale of the original film, the makers are mapping out an extensive timeline. The team aims to wrap up a significant portion of principal photography by April 2027, leaving ample room for a lengthy and detailed post-production phase before the movie targets its grand theatrical release in December 2027.
Kalki 2 is set to dive straight into the massive clash teased at the end of the first chapter. The rebellion against Supreme Yaskin (Kamal) will take center stage, introducing fresh faces and unexpected turns to expand the sci-fi universe. The upcoming sequel is also gearing up to deliver even bigger action spectacles for Prabhas, with the production team already sketching out some of the franchise's most ambitious set pieces.
