About Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD, Deepika Padukone stated, “What I can definitely say is that it is unlike anything we have experienced or seen before. I remember doing narration for this film during Covid. Nagi was there, and I was on the other end. Much like Kamal sir said, I think you will see sparks of genius in him, even though it’s just his second or third movie. You could tell that as he was narrating… that wasn’t much on paper, but it was all in his mind.”
The Jawan actress added, “Every time he spoke, and even now, when you look into his eyes, you can see the entire visual of what he has envisioned over the years, which is so clear. That’s the only time, and I mean it in a good way, you can hear him speak. He speaks so articulately because that’s the one thing he is completely consumed by and passionate about.”
