Take a look:

Meanwhile, ahead of the film's theatrical release, Nag Ashwin and Prabhas participated in a live Instagram session. During the conversation, Ashwin revealed that Prabhas will make his entrance 20 minutes into the film. He said, 'I will scream for Prabhas' entry. I am not the kind of person who screams in theatre. But I will shout when I see Prabhas' entry. His entry will be a bit late. Prabhas will appear after 20 minutes. The world-building will take some time. We need to introduce a lot of characters and tell the story. But people will go home with Bhairava being the most loved character."

Sharing details of Prabhas' character he said, "People love Prabhas and all the characters he played. Bhairava is innocent in a way, but he is also a superhero. It is a mix of everything. The character will appeal to kids immensely. If a 10-year-old kid loves Prabhas, seeing him as Bhairava, he will love him forever. Bhairava is not the guy who talks about philosophy. He is an easygoing person. That's how a normal person behaves."

The magnum opus features Amitabh Bachchan as the almighty ‘Ashwatthama', a crucial character from the Mahabharata. Ashwatthama, son of Guru Dronacharya, is a strong figure. He aimed a Brahmastra at the unborn child of Abhimanyu. Enraged by this act, Lord Krishna cursed Ashwatthama with immortality, poverty, and a festering wound - a fate worse than death - that will last until the end of time.

Deepika plays the role of Sumathi, a pregnant woman whose unborn child is a threat to the villainous forces at play and receives protection from Ashwatthama.

Kamal Haasan plays the antagonist Yaskin. Earlier, speaking about his character, Kamal Hasaan said, "I always wanted to play a bad man because the bad man gets to do all the good things and have fun."

Disha Patani is also a part of 'Kalki 2898 AD'.
