Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone starrer film 'Kalki 2898 AD' has been released in theatres. Director Nag Ashwin's 'Kalki 2898 AD' is a mythological and science fiction movie. People are liking Amitabh Bachchan's character in the film. Meanwhile, 'Mahabharat's Bhishma Pitamah i.e. Mukesh Khanna has taken a dig at Kalki's story. He has raised questions on the role of Ashwatthama.
Mukesh Khanna shared the post
Mukesh Khanna has recently shared a post on his Instagram, in which the star cast of Kalki is seen. It is written on this photo – The name of this film should have been Kal Ki and not Kalki. Along with the post, Mukesh wrote in the caption – Is it justified to distort the facts of Mahabharata for convenience in a good and grandly made film like Kalki?
Arjun and Bheem had taken out the gem from Ashwatthama's forehead and given it to Draupadi. Ashwatthama had killed five sons by entering the tent in the dark of the night. So how did she come to Ashwatthama? There are many more such wrong facts in the film. Why do these film makers dare to do this? Why doesn't anyone stop them? Do they have only Hindu scriptures left for this? Now this post of Mukesh Khanna is making a lot of headlines on social media.
Mukesh Khanna wrote the caption.
He further said in his YouTube video- There was a huge battle between Arjuna and Ashwatthama. They were firing 'Brahmastra', but only Arjuna knew how to reverse the attack. Since Ashwatthama could not do that, he decided to fire Brahmastra on Abhimanyu's wife.
Krishna protected her for nine months because she was pregnant. I am telling this story in so much detail because I don't understand how Krishna can order Ashwatthama to protect her in the future Kalki? How can a powerful person like Krishna ask a person like Ashwatthama to protect him? Mukesh Khanna said that every Hindu should be angry with these changes, just like they were after watching Prabhas' previous film Adipurush.
In this film, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Prabhas along with Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani are seen as lead actors. Actors like Vijay Deverakonda, Mrinal Thakur, Dulquer Salman, Fariya Abdullah have played cameo roles in the film.
