Kamal Haasan’s Transformation as Yaskin in Kalki 2898 AD Shocks Fans; Nag Ashwin Reveals Behind-the-Scenes Pic

Kalki 2898 AD has been making waves across India, enjoying significant box-office success with its impressive ensemble cast, including Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, and Deepika Padukone. Amidst the accolades, filmmaker Nag Ashwin has shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse that has captured the attention of fans.

In the recent photo, Kamal Haasan, who plays the character Yaskin, is nearly unrecognizable due to elaborate prosthetics used to achieve his dramatic look. The transformation has been described as both striking and slightly eerie, underscoring the depth of his commitment to the role.

Nag Ashwin, the visionary behind Kalki 2898 AD, has poured immense effort into this ambitious project. The film has not only captivated audiences but also gained additional prestige through cameo appearances by renowned filmmakers SS Rajamouli and Ram Gopal Varma. In an interview with The Indian Express, Ashwin recounted how he persuaded these illustrious directors to join the project, noting their graciousness in supporting the film.

Kamal Haasan, in a special video shared by Vyjayanthi Films on X (formerly Twitter), expressed his profound gratitude for the film’s success. Reflecting on the achievement, he remarked, “I have acted in over 250 films, but not many reach this milestone. It’s a moment to celebrate.”

Kalki 2898 AD continues to make headlines as one of the year’s most talked-about films, thanks in part to its star-studded cast, elaborate sets, and the dedicated efforts of its creators.
