As cinema lovers eagerly await the release of Prabhas’ upcoming movie Kalki 2898 AD on June 27, 2024, many are already curious about its OTT release details. According to recent reports, the film has sold its digital rights to not only one but two streaming giants.
Kalki 2898 AD OTT release: Which platform is it coming out on?
Nag Ashwin’s magnum opus Kalki 2898 AD has taken the world by storm with its grand visuals and star-studded cast. Announced last year, this dystopian science-fiction film has generated immense buzz. Featuring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Haasan, the movie is slated to release in theaters on June 27, 2024. With its theatrical release just around the corner, fans are eager to know the OTT release details.
According to Filmibeat, Kalki 2898 AD will be available to stream on both Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. In other words, Netflix has acquired the Hindi version for $20 million, while Amazon Prime Video has secured the rights for the Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam languages for $23 million.
If confirmed, this dual-platform release sets a new benchmark in the industry. Moreover, for those unaware, the film, made with a budget of $71 million, has already recouped a significant portion of its expenses through the sale of its digital streaming rights.
For those curious about Kalki 2898 AD’s OTT release date, it largely depends on its performance at the box office. If Prabhas’ highly anticipated movie achieves strong box office results, the OTT release may be delayed. Conversely, if the film underperforms, it might debut on digital platforms sooner. It’s important to note that the filmmakers have yet to confirm the official OTT release details. Speaking about the box office, even before its release, Kalki 2898 AD has sold over five lakh tickets through advance bookings for day 1.
