SHOCKING - Prabhas is Even Lesser Than The Actor Who Gave 17 Flops in a Row
One of the most anticipated Hindi-language movies of 2024 is the science fiction epic kalki 2898 AD, starring Prabhas. The Nag Ashwin-directed movie was the second-biggest blockbuster of the year after taking in around 275 crores net at the box office in its hindi dubbing.
Although it was a big hit in theaters, kalki hasn't done very well on Netflix. With 4.5 million views in its first weekend, the show's popularity started strongly after it was sold to the platform for a whopping 175 crores. But in the second week, the views fell to 2.6 million, and in the third week, they fell even lower to just 900K, which was even less than the third-week statistics of 1.6 million for Akshay Kumar's box office flop Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.

With 8 million views in total after 17 days, it is expected to drop out of Netflix's Top 10 list and probably stay below 10 million views overall. Given the high expectations and financial commitment made in the movie, the lackluster reaction it received on Netflix is unexpected, since it ranks among the worst-performing blockbusters on the platform's Top 10 list.
Produced by vyjayanthi movies and drawing inspiration from Hindu mythology, kalki 2898 AD is the first installment of a projected cinematic universe that takes place in a post-apocalyptic future. The movie centers on a quest to save the offspring of lab subject SUM-80, who is thought to be the foretold Kalki.
