Now, Amitabh Bachchan has revealed why he wasn’t present at the Kalki 2898 AD panel at Comic-con. Taking to his blog, the star wrote, “Alright .. so .. San Diego and K, the project .. a great moment for the film and the makers and all those that went there for the release of the first look for it .. I was pushed hard by Nagi Sir to come along, but work and medical restrictions have kept me away from many such occasions .. so .. but I must admit the first look was pretty darn good .. wasn’t it .. style, music, frames .. everything.”

He further added, “And finally the reveal of K .. KALKI .. mythologically so important .. 2898 AD!! AD has been changed has it not? Yes .. AD, which I think was ‘anno domini’, meaning ‘in the year of the Lord’.. was changed to CE – common era .. and BC, became BCE – before common era! Why so .. have no idea .. it was related to the birth of Christ , before and after, hence .. but , each region in the World has its own year and month and named according to their calculated calendars.”

The San Diego Comic-con panel was attended by Kamal Haasan and Prabhas. This marked the first time an Indian film’s teaser was launched at the event.
