Kalki 2898 AD has proven to be a massive turning point for prabhas, giving him a much-needed blockbuster after a mixed run at the box office in recent years. Directed by Nag Ashwin, the ambitious sci-fi epic brought together a stellar ensemble—Amitabh Bachchan, deepika padukone, and Kamal Haasan—and delivered both critical acclaim and commercial success across multiple languages. Its visual grandeur and mythological undertones resonated with audiences globally. Given the scale and scope of the story, Ashwin had already hinted that kalki 2898 AD was just the beginning, and a sequel was inevitable to complete the narrative.

However, despite the greenlight for the sequel, the project has hit a temporary roadblock due to Prabhas’s packed schedule. The actor is currently juggling multiple high-profile films, including raja Saab, Fauji, and Spirit. With these commitments lined up through the coming months, prabhas has not yet given clarity on when he can commit dedicated time to the sequel of kalki 2898 AD. This delay has caused uncertainty for Nag Ashwin, even though actors like Kamal Haasan, amitabh bachchan, and deepika padukone have already allocated windows for the sequel's production.

In the meantime, nag ashwin has reportedly put the sequel on hold and is channeling his creative energy into developing two new scripts. The director has made it clear that he will only proceed with the sequel once prabhas can commit bulk dates in advance, as coordinating such a massive ensemble cast requires precise scheduling. Once prabhas is available, nag ashwin plans to realign with the rest of the cast to ensure continuity. Until then, fans may have to wait longer to witness the second chapter of the kalki saga unfold on screen.
