Nag Ashwin Debunks Alia Bhatt Collaboration Rumors

Acclaimed director Nag Ashwin has quashed rumors of collaborating with Alia Bhatt, calling it a "random rumor." Ashwin revealed that his next project will be the sequel to the blockbuster film Kalki 2898 AD, featuring Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani. The sequel will also star Amitabh Bachchan and Prabhas, with Kamal Haasan's role expanded from a cameo to a pivotal character.

Kalki 2898 AD, a post-apocalyptic film inspired by Hindu scriptures, has emerged as one of the biggest hits of 2024. The mythology-inspired sci-fi extravaganza boasts an impressive cast, including Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, and Mrunal Thakur in cameo roles. With the sequel in the works, Nag Ashwin has solidified his position among India's top film directors, alongside S S Rajamouli, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and Karan Johar.

The Kalki sequel's production timeline will depend on Deepika Padukone's availability, as she attends to her motherly duties.
