This song brings together India's most formidable talents, featuring global icons Prabhas and Diljit Dosanjh in a collaboration that fans have eagerly awaited.
'Kalki 2898 AD' has been a film that can only be called a dream, uniting the country’s top actors, being the first Indian film to make its mark at Comic-Con San Diego, the first-ever Indian film to feature an animated prelude, and even showcasing a 4-ton futuristic vehicle ‘Bujji’ currently touring India. Now, they’ve surpassed expectations by blending the cultural richness of North and South India into an anthem.

The music video, set in the dark and futuristic world of Kashi, is a visual marvel. Sung by Diljit Dosanjh and Vijaynarain, with lyrics penned by Kumaar and music composed by Santhosh Narayanan, the track is a perfect description of Prabhas's character Bhairava in the film. Choreographed by Pony Verma, the video has the unique styles of Diljit and Prabhas, featuring both global artists in black lungis and turbans. The highlight in the video comes when Prabhas picks up his lungi, makes a turn, and walks away with his signature swag, prompting Diljit to join his hands in admiration. Truly a mic-drop moment!!
