Kalki 2898 AD OTT release date window may have been changed
Earlier reports suggested that two prominent platforms have secured Kalki 2898 AD streaming rights. Netflix acquired the OTT rights for the Hindi version for $20 million, while Amazon Prime Video secured the rights for all languages for $23 million.
Typically, following the South Cinema digital release schedule, movies are released on OTT platforms about 45 days after their theatrical release. However, recent reports from 123telugu suggest that discussions between the makers and both streaming platforms may lead to a delay in the digital release.

This indicates that the filmmakers are prioritizing the theatrical experience for an extended period of time. However, it is essential to note that the makers have yet to officially announce this delay. If these reports are accurate, OTT lovers will have to wait a bit longer to enjoy the film from their homes.
Regarding Kalki 2898 AD’s box-office collection, the film began its journey with a strong opening, grossing $11.4 million on its first day. Early estimates from Sacnilk for day 5 indicate that the film might earn approximately $625,590. Notably, these collection figures are subject to change by the end of the day.
