‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has successfully completed 20 days at the box office, amassing approximately Rs 560 crore net after its third Tuesday. Prabhas’s film continues to generate significant buzz and is preparing for its digital platform debut soon. Before its OTT release, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is on track to become the fourth-biggest Indian film at the domestic box office, surpassing the lifetime collection of ‘Jawan’.
Rumors about the OTT premiere of this Nag Ashwin directorial have been circulating. However, according to various Telugu media reports, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ will be available online 10 weeks post-release. In its fourth week, the film has over a month left to continue its big-screen run.

Starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has already become the biggest Indian film of 2024. With six more weeks in theaters, it is poised to break more records, including potentially surpassing ‘RRR’s’ overall domestic business, which stands at Rs 782.2 crore net in India. If ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ maintains its current momentum, it could become the third highest-grossing Indian film of all time.
By the end of its fourth weekend, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is expected to surpass Rs 600 crore. However, a lot depends on the reception of ‘Bad Newz,’ releasing this Friday. While ‘Kalki’ has seen major success in Telugu, the Hindi belt has also significantly contributed to its box office numbers. If the Vicky Kaushal-Triptii Dimri starrer receives positive word-of-mouth, it might challenge ‘Kalki’ in the Hindi market, potentially impacting its overall business.
The future trajectory of ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ remains highly anticipated.
