Kalki 2898 AD - Movie Review

India's highest budget movie till date, Kalki 2898 AD has released today. Nag Ashwin, who is just 2 films old (Evade Subramanyam & Mahanati), helming this magnum opus of science fiction interlinked with mythology, is itself a gutsy attempt. Roping in stalwarts like Amitabh and Kamal Haasan, while having "The Prabhas" and Deepika is taking it to next level. Did he live upto the expectations? Let's see.

Story :- It's 2898 AD, where there are only 3 worlds shown. Complex, Kashi and Shambala. Complex controls Kashi and all other worlds with it's dominance under the guidance of Yaskin (Kamal Haasan). They trace fertile women and use them for making Project K a success, which gives super power to Yaskin. Kashi is deprived of all resources and exploited by Complex. Shambala is a rebel group who want to bring down Complex at any cost. Sumathi (Deepika) is pregnant and crucial for Project K to become success, however she escapes from Complex to save her baby. Bhairava (Prabhas) a bounty hunter, who is desperate to shift to Complex from Kashi, wants to catch Sumathi and handover to complex. Ashwathama (Amitabh) is alive just to protect Sumathi's baby. Bhairava and Ashwathama face off each other in this process. Who wins over whom? Was Sumathi protected? Forms the rest of the story.

Performances :- Entire story revolves around Deepika. She was very good in the given scope and interval block stands out. Amitabh Bachchan has most creamy role, be it the elevations, action sequences or back story. He is outstanding in it. This could be termed as the best mass role for Amitabh in ages. Prabhas is the life of the film. What could be otherwise an serious emotional film with slow pace, was made lively with his comedy timing. His camaraderie with Bujji, one liners during action sequences, sequences with Bhramandam or other cameos, makes the movie enjoyable. His get up in the last scene bring goosebumps to fans. Kamal Haasan has limited scope and he excels in it. Despite having prosthetic and graphics, his intensity in acting arrests you. Bengali actor Saswata Chatterjee has a meatier role as commander of Complex and he was great. Shobhana, Pasupathy, Rajendra Prasad, Disha Patani, Anna Ben were fine in their roles. Lot of cameos are there throughout the movie, which surprise us occassionally.

Technicians :- Graphics of the movie is of the highest standard and on par with any Hollywood movie. The team should be applauded for the quality. Art work comes next in line for the accolades, setting up 3 worlds with contrasting premises. Action sequences were very well designed and executed, using the graphics to the maximum extent possible. Santosh Narayanan background score is excellent. Songs could have been better though. Nag Ashwin deserves a bow for the way he has conceived this story and executed it. Perfect blend of Indian mythology in a science fiction film is a very rare phenomenon, which he has aced. No one would believe that the director of Mahanati and Kalki are one and the same. Such is the contrast of these films genre are. He has a Rajamouli and a Bapu in him. Costumes & Make up have complimented the proceedings of the film.

Positives :-

Everything

Negatives :-

Lags in 1st half

Few songs

Summary :- Great story, terrific performances, top notch graphics make it must watch. It should be seen as a story based movie rather than a Prabhas movie, to enjoy it fully. Kudos to Nag Ashwin for pulling it off.

Rating :- 4.5/5 (Kalki is India's Avengers)

How Star Power Makes an Ad Impeccable and Unforgettable

In our previous blog, we explored the potential of celebrity endorsements as a powerful strategy for elevating your advertising success. We analyzed how the celebrities significantly enhance an ad's appeal and fast-track its journey to success.

In this blog, we will revisit some of the most successful ads, which influenced our childhood to a great extent. It is not just only about those ads, but also the people who made them a path- braking success in the world of advertisement. Let's highlight some examples of how prominent celebrities have effectively boosted the brand image through their endorsements.

Aishwarya Rai For Nakshatra Jewelry

The purpose of every jewelry ad is to prove to its customers that ornaments complete every woman’s look. When we think of Indian jewelry ads, Aishwarya Rai often comes to mind, alongside several other well-known personalities.

Remember the iconic Tanishq ads that captured significant attention with their artistic execution of a fantasy-like setup? However, it was Aishwarya Rai who stole all the limelight. The actor elegantly showcased the beautiful jewelry she wore, with her graceful looks perfectly complementing the exquisite pieces from Nakshatra.

Let’s not forget that there was time, when the queen of our hearts ruled every jwelery ad. This is the power a star holds.

Deepika Padukone For Close-Up

Remember the memorable jingle, “Kya Aap Close-Up Karte Hain!” While the music was catchy enough to catch everyone's attention, it was Deepika Padukone’s radiant smile that became the focal point. This sums up how Deepika's presence took the ad to the next level! The catchy jingle, combined with amazing camera angles added to the aesthetic aspect of the ad.

Aamir Khan For Coca-Cola

Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, is as flawless in his advertisements as he is in his movies. One of the most popular ads from our childhood was the Coca-Cola commercials featuring Aamir Khan and Aishwarya Rai were pure gold.

The actor in his prime ruled everyone's hearts with his tantalizing expressions. In the ad, his expressions and charismatic demeanor added to the spark of the ad.

Hrithik Roshan For Mountain Dew

“Dar Sabko Lagta Hai, Gala Sabka Sookhta Hai.”

In this ad, we see Hrithik Roshan preparing for an action sequence, perfectly expressing anxiety,  tension, and simultaneously a fierce look of determination. His expressive eyes convey the intensity an actor faces before a crucial shot.

The combination of captivating cinematography, precise shots, and Hrithik's enigmatic disposition elevated the ad's appeal among the audience.

Katrina Kaif in Titan Raga

An ad featuring the stunning Katrina Kaif, who is both every man’s crush and every girl’s inspiration, breaking stereotypes, touched everyone’s hearts. Her presence and the ad's message resonated deeply with the audience.

In the commercial, the actress looks effortlessly beautiful in her traditional attire, surrounded by her friends. As they are helping her dress up, her voice adds to it, making the ad compelling.

As ethereal as the actor looks, the visuals coupled with compelling voice-over and everything makes the ad classy. The ad ends with the line, “Titan Raga- Banaao Khud Se Rishta”! This line in itself is the essence of the entire ad, reflecting upon the sweet fruits we reap when we wait for something we want, and undeniably it touched our hearts!

In Conclusion:

We hope that the examples we cited have given you a fair idea about how star power works in the world of advertising. Every top advertising agency must possess the skills to execute a celebrity endorsement meticulously and successfully!
