Kamal Haasan on doing Kalki 2898 AD

In the interview, when the topic of Kamal Haasan’s casting was pointed out, Prabhas added, “I was like why will he do it? Don’t torture him. Just leave.” In response, Kamal Haasan finally replied, “It’s not a question of torture. Self-doubt comes, you know. He has done this (Pointing towards Amitabh and Prabhas). What am I going to do? That was the reason. And it’s not that I’ve played bad guys before. Even as a lead bad guy, psychopaths and all that. But this is something else.” The clip of the interview surfaced on X.

Directed by Nag Ashwin, Kalki 2898 AD also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Disha Patani and Prabhas. The movie is slated to release on June 27.
