He stated, "Our film begins in Mahabharat and concludes in 2898. That is the title of the film. It's named 'Kalki 2898 AD'. It covers 6000 years of time."

He went on to say, "We're attempting to imagine what the worlds would be like. We will continue to keep it Indian, and our challenge is not to make it appear like 'Blade Runner'."
