Deepika Padukone is undoubtedly one of the leading actresses in Indian cinema right now. In Bollywood, she’s in the top league, and we must credit her script choices for it.

This has made her one of the most successful Indian actors in the post-covid era, with her domestic box office crossing 1500 crores.

Deepika made her debut in 2007 with a blockbuster, Om Shanti Om, and since then, there’s no looking back. She has reached new heights successfully and delivered several big hits, in addition to proving her acting prowess. In the post-covid era, she has been involved in four theatrical releases (excluding her cameos), and all of them have managed to cross the 100 crore mark in India.

Reacting to the controversy, Kalki 2898 Ad director Nag Ashwin took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his views.

Who are you man? Why so much hate? And spreading division? We are all in this together…Chill… Can I send u a bujji toy?

During the podcast,...

With all the larger-than-life characters and their very humane tribulations, the symbolic and philosophical significance of the epic narratives, imaginative world-building, and pioneering concepts, the rich lore of Indian mythology boasts an untapped potential of expansive storytelling. This is all the more reason as to why director Nag Ashwin’s ambitious amalgamation of Indian mythology and dystopian epic in the form of Kalki 2898 Ad is still making a buzz even nearly two months since its theatrical release. With grand visuals, a star-studded cast, and monumental scale to match the vision of a reimagined Indian mythos, the Tamil blockbuster has laid the groundwork for an interconnected universe. Kalki 2898 Ad, as the first entry to the universe, proves to be a stellar addition to the unique subgenre of sci-fi/mythology mashup, the likes of which were popularized by Virgin Comics’ Ramayan 3392 Ad.
