Director Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD became a theatrical blockbuster, and part two is expected to be even bigger, given its broader scope.
A film becomes a commercial hit for several reasons: no major star film has been released for a significant time, a lack of competition at the box office, star power, or strong content. In the case of Kalki 2898 AD, it’s evident that the film lacks strong content, but other factors played a significant role in its success.

However, it could be beneficial for the director to take note of the criticism so that improvements can be made in the second part. If the team is content with the collections and under the illusion that they made a flawless film, no one can help them. The reality lies in what people are discussing—the weak content. Below are a few of the many negative reviews flooding in.

For all that money spent, they could have spent some brain power to imagine an original dystopian future for India. This is not even derivative but a mishmash of ideas from several Western sci-fi movies and books. An Atleesque version of sci-fi. #Kalki2898AD

The modern part vs Mahabharata part in #Kalki seems to be directed by two different people, coz how the hell the Mahabharata scenes are 100/10 but the modern scenes come out as super underwhelming and most time with cringe dialogs……. #Kalki2898AD pic.twitter.com/8j8w7V2isI

#Kalki2898AD – BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!
clown of a hero
lackluster screenplay
incredibly long duration (unbearable 2nd half)
poor action sequences & rope work
weak and amateurish characters (except the main 3 characters)
weapons that look like mere toys pic.twitter.com/odnqSulWUO— TheCinemaGru (@TheCinemaGru) August 22, 2024
I love Telugu movies but #Kalki2898AD has disappointed me. I had very high expectations given the hype.

The sound design is so bad and awkward in #Kalki2898AD. Nag Ashwin should think or hire someone else for sound editing.

Watched #Kalki2898AD today….. 2nd half is good but first half is unbearable
— नि_shu (रक्षिता ) (@deep_tee_) August 22, 2024
#KALKI2898AD is an absolutely 3rd class movie (apart from Mahabharat scenes, a couple of Amitabh Bachchan scenes and probably last 15min).
Dont know how such pathetic movies earn that much at the Box Office

Why are people watching #Kalki28989AD at 0.25x? Film is super lengthy at 1x and super boring How can anyone tolerate this movie at slow speed?
