The year is 2898, and in the desert that was once Earth stands a dystopian city with an inverted pyramid called the Complex, where fertile women are taken for a mysterious experiment called Project K. A group of rebels rescues one of the women because they believe her unborn child is the reincarnation of the god Kalki. A bounty hunter sets out on their trail in the desert. Mystical apparitions appear; an ancient power awakens – a battle for the fate of the world is looming... This mythological sci-fi epic dazzles with stunning visual effects and a bold Indo-futuristic design, evoking the worlds of Mad Max and Dune. With a massive budget of around $72 million, it stands as the most expensive Indian film ever made. It is part of the extensive planned saga Kalki Cinematic Universe, which also includes the animated television miniseries Bujji and Bhairava from 2024. Kalki 2898 AD 2 is already in the works.

The Partner of the Film: The Embassy of India in Bratislava.
