Nag Ashwin’s Shocker: Kalki 2 Shelved?


Nag Ashwin’s Shocker: Kalki 2 Shelved?

After the success of Kalki 2898 AD, director Nag Ashwin might be working on a major female-led project, reportedly eyeing Alia Bhatt for the lead role.

The latest reports suggest that Alia fits the part perfectly. While the storyline remains under wraps, sources say it’s a tailor-made role for Alia, who is known for playing strong female characters on screen. This is going to be her second pan-India film after RRR.

Some people on social media are discussing whether this means Nag Ashwin has put Kalki 2 on hold or possibly shelved it, as Prabhas has signed back-to-back projects. Nagi might be looking to start something sooner without waiting, but this is all speculation with no official confirmation.

There are also allegations that, despite being a skilled director, Nag Ashwin couldn’t handle the scale and epic scope of Kalki 2898 AD and delivered a half-baked film, with the first half described as extremely boring and the second half as comparatively better, with the climax being the best part.

Nag Ashwin may now want to return to what he does best—making a female-oriented movie like Mahanati. After completing this new film with Alia, he might then consider Kalki 2.

Prabhas is also set to be busy with The Raja Saab, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit, and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Fauji for the next two years. So Nag Ashwin thought he might direct a film with Alia Bhatt in the meantime.
