Indian billionaire Anand Mahindra, who is acting as chairperson of the Mahindra Group, is one of the minds behind the creation of the futuristic ride from the Nag Ashwin-directed “Kalki 2898 AD.” Recently the business tycoon met Bujji and took the vehicle for a spin. The video is going viral all over the internet even as you’re reading this.
This concept took shape when director Nag Ashwin enlisted the help of Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra during the production process.
Anand Mahindra, responding positively, mobilized his team and facilitated a collaboration with Jayem Automotives in Coimbatore to bring this innovative vision to fruition. With just weeks left until the film's premiere, Mahindra finally met Bujji, and the event was captured in a video shared by the filmmakers on social media.
Voiced by Keerty Suresh, the character Bujji is a cutting-edge, three-wheeled electric vehicle which plays a pivotal role as Bhairava's loyal confidant in the film starring Prabhas.
During his visit, Anand Mahindra took Bujji for a drive and lauded the efforts of all those involved in its creation. Prabhas portrays Bhairava in the sci-fi epic "Kalki 2898 AD," a film made on an unprecedented budget.
Bujji's launch was a spectacular event in Hyderabad a few weeks ago. Additionally, "Bujji and Bhairava," an animated series, debuted on Amazon Prime Video on May 1. This two-episode series serves as a prelude to "Kalki 2898 AD," introducing viewers to the main characters and the dystopian world crafted by Nag Ashwin.
Touted as the most expensive film in Indian cinema with a staggering budget of Rs 600 crore, "Kalki 2898 AD," directed by Nag Ashwin and produced by C. Aswini Dutt, Swapna Dutt, and Priyanka Dutt under the Vyjayanthi Movies banner, is set for a grand release on June 27 in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
Bollywood’s highly awaited sci-fi/action, “Kalki 2898 AD” features a mind-blowing stellar cast, from the hero of the south, Baahubali’s “Prabhas,” the Bollywood diva, “Deepika Padukone,” ‘Big B’ Amitabh Bachchan, with other notable cast members including Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani, with production handled by Vyjayanthi Movies.
The trailer has garnered significant acclaim, and the movie is set for release on June 27th.
