The film was released on June 27, with early morning shows timed around 4:00 am. The early morning screenings scream Prabhas mania as shows went houseful. Now, social media is abuzz with reviews of the mytho-sci-fi action thriller. Taking to X, a social media user praised the Baahubali star, writing: "#kalki2898ad just got done with imqx screening. Peak visuals and world building. Prabhas’s screen presence matched Amitabh’s performance which says a lot about Prabhas than the director. Movie is good overall that will make you wait for the next part. But Nagi failed on basics."
Another post on X read: "Good First With Excellent Interval.. #Prabhas Characterization is the one we personally love more.. that funny character arc.. Excited For 2nd Half #Kalki2898AD" After catching FDFS, an X user shared: KALKI 2898 AD was outstanding! A visually magnificent sci-fi experience. It had a little bit of “Blade Runner” & “Mad Max” in there as well. The Prabhas VS Amitabh Bachchan fight scene was epic. And Deepika & Disha were so gorgeous, they made my head spin."
