“Kalki 2898 AD,” an upcoming Telugu film, prominently stars Prabhas under the direction of Nag Ashwin. The ensemble cast includes Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, among others in pivotal roles. With a production budget of ₹700 crore, the film’s production team has implemented pricing adjustments.
Approval has been secured for a ₹75 increase in ticket prices at single-screen cinemas and ₹100 at multiplexes, inclusive of taxes. Consequently, ticket rates will be ₹413 at multiplexes and ₹265 at single-screen theaters. Additional charges for 3D glasses apply due to the film’s release in 3D format.
For instance, renowned multiplex Prasads offers premium 3D glasses priced at ₹100, bringing the total ticket cost to ₹513. Furthermore, special early morning shows at 5:30 AM are scheduled in Telangana, with differentiated pricing: ₹377 for standard shows and ₹495 for multiplex screenings.
Anticipating robust attendance on its release day, the film aims to capitalize on positive viewer response to generate substantial revenue. Despite seemingly ambitious pricing, these measures are strategically aligned with the unique appeal of ‘Kalki 2898 AD.’
