There was significant hype surrounding Brahmanandam’s comic role in Prabhas’ Kalki 2898 AD, especially after the launch of the animation series Bujji & Bhairava, which served as a prelude to the film.
However, the audience was left disappointed. The scenes between Prabhas and Brahmanandam were not funny at all, contributing only to the film’s length without adding the expected humor. This led to further lag in the screenplay.
