Nag Ashwin on film’s success
Nag Ashwin is relieved with the response to the biggest film of his career, Kalki 2898 AD. It has raked in more than ₹500 crore in the first week at the box office. Reacting to the response, he said, “A movie like this is beyond us. The ambition was bigger in the sense, there was a larger thing at stake than just us. Many makers were waiting for the result of this sci-fi film. If it didn’t work, it would have closed doors for more years.”
As there are rumours that Mahesh Babu plays Lord Krishna in the film, ask him who does and he says, “This is how Krishna will be in the film. One of the first things I was very sure was we should have him in the silhouette, there should not be any form. Once you do that, you humanise him in a way. We didn’t want to humanise him.”
