Nag Ashwin

directed

Kalki 2898 AD

is in its fifth week and even now, the film is doing better than some of the newer releases. Kalki 2898 AD features

Amitabh Bachchan

, Kamal Haasan,

Prabhas

and

Deepika Padukone

in the lead. The film is currently aiming for the 4th spot in the highest grossing film of Indian cinema, the position is currently owned by Shah Rukh Khan’s

Jawan

with Rs 640 crore.

Till the fifth weekend, Kalki 2898 AD had minted about Rs 632 crore, needing a little more than Rs 8 crore to clinch the fourth position. And on Monday, the film added another Rs 1.25 crore to its total, thus narrowing the gap with Jawan, taking the total collection of the film to Rs 633.25 crore. The mythological sci-fi film has all the chances of breaking Jawan’s record by the end of the weekend. It is also interesting that Kalki 2898 AD minted more than

Vicky Kaushal

’s

Bad Newz

on Monday, which earned just Rs 1.15 crore despite it being just its second Monday.
Kalki 2898 AD is all set to return with the second installment, which is still in the writing stage and in an exclusive interview with ETimes, director Nag Ashwin shared that there is a possibility of the film having multiple spin-offs with characters having their own storyline.
The film also featured SS

Rajamouli

, Ram Gopal Varma, Dulquer Salmaan, Vijay Deverakonda and Murnal Thakur in cameo appearances.
