The much-awaited Tollywood flick of the year, Kalki 2898 AD, directed by Nag Ashwin, hit the screens yesterday and has been showered with rave reviews from both critics and audiences. Every character and part of the film has wowed viewers, showing off Ashwin’s brilliant direction.
One of the coolest parts of the movie is Ashwin’s choice to keep Lord Krishna’s face hidden, letting the audience imagine their favorite heroes in the role. But in today’s internet world, keeping such secrets is tough.
The mystery of who played Lord Krishna in this futuristic movie is finally out. The role is played by Krishna Kumar, the actor known for his role in Soorarai Pottru (Aakaasam Nee Haddhu Ra in Telugu) where he played Suriya’s friend and a pilot. After the reveal, Krishna Kumar got loads of praise for his performance, and he expressed his pride in being part of such a big film in Telugu cinema. Many people have applauded him for bringing such intensity to the role.
