AP government’s gift to Kalki 2898 AD: Permits hike in ticket rates

The anticipation for Prabhas’s highly anticipated sci-fi epic, “Kalki 2898 AD,” is reaching a fever pitch globally, with fans eagerly awaiting its release on Thursday. Advance bookings are open across the world, including Telangana and overseas markets.

Andhra Pradesh, however, has joined the excitement by granting a significant increase in ticket prices for the film. Single screens are allowed to raise prices by Rs. 75, while multiplexes can increase them by Rs. 125. This flexibility, granted for a period of two weeks (14 days), signifies the government’s recognition of the film’s immense potential and the eagerness of audiences to witness it on the big screen.

While Telangana has also allowed for price increases, they are slightly less generous. Single screens in Telangana can increase prices by Rs. 75 for only 8 days, while multiplexes can increase them by Rs. 100, with a further Rs. 200 permitted for the first day’s early morning show.

The potential for “Kalki 2898 AD” to break box office records is a hot topic of discussion. Will it surpass the first-day collections of “RRR” in AP and Telangana, a film that currently holds the record? Prabhas’s previous films “Salar” and “Baahubali 2” also feature in the top-performing list, making the anticipation for “Kalki 2898 AD” even more intense. Beyond India, the film has already achieved a major milestone in North America. With premiere shows and first-day tickets already exceeding 3 million dollars, “Kalki 2898 AD” is set for a monumental opening in the global market.

As the clock ticks down to the release, the world awaits the answer to a single question: Will “Kalki 2898 AD” rewrite box office history? Only time will tell. Analysts and movie lovers are waiting eagerly as to what Prabhas with his sci fi futuristic film Kalki 2898 AD will do at the box office and what records he will set in the coming days.
