"When Nagi approached me for this film, I was drawn by his outstanding work in the past. 'Project K' has been an unusual and exciting experience, with incredible research behind it.

I hope you like what you see, and when we release the film next year, you like it even better!"

Interacting with the audience, Kamal Haasan also shared his excitement, stating, "I have tried to make films like this but in a smaller way. 'Kalki2898 AD' has a big vision, and I am glad to be a part of it. I remember when I wanted to create troopers; I had used hockey masks as part of the costume design, but 'Kalki2898 AD' has done it in style, and I love it."

Vyjayanthi Movies founder and Producer C Aswani Dutt also graced the panel along with his daughters Priyanka Dutt and Swapna Dutt Chalasani and reflected on his journey from black and white to sci-fi with Kalki 2898 AD.
