'Kalki' goes housefull as Prabhas fans mistake it for 'Kalki 2898 AD'

Telugu actor Dr Rajshekar’s 2019-film ‘Kalki’ has yet again made headlines after it went housful as Prabhas fans mistake it for ‘Kalki 2898 AD’.

A ticketing platform, opened shows for Rajasekhar’s film instead of Prabhas-starrer. Actor Rajasekhar reacted to the goof-up in a funny way on the X app. He said that he doesn’t have anything to do with the mix-up.

Reportedly, nearly 20 shows of Rajashekar’s ‘Kalki’ were sold out. Rajasekhar wrote, “Naaku assalu sammandham ledhu (I have no connection). Jokes apart… Wishing dear #Prabhas @nagashwin7, Maa #AshwiniDutt garu @VyjayanthiFilms, the stellar cast and crew all the very very best! May you create history and take the film industry a step ahead @kalki2898ad (sic).”
