‘Kalki 2898 AD’: Kamal Haasan as Yaskin Leaves Fans Intrigued with New Poster

The makers of ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ are leaving no stone unturned to create excitement for the film among the audience. Ahead of the film’s release, they unveiled the intriguing poster of Kamal Haasan’s character, Yaskin.

Taking to their official Instagram handle, the makers treated fans with a new poster captioned, “The one and only SUPREME YASKIN.. @ikamalhaasan.” Kamal Haasan sports a bald look with a crack on his skull in the poster, adding to the mystery surrounding his character.

Kamal Haasan’s new avatar and look have been making headlines since the trailer was released. Praising Kamal Haasan’s appearance in the trailer, ‘RRR’ director SS Rajamouli recently said, “I am still stuck on Kamal sir’s look and how he amazes as always. Nagi… can’t wait to immerse into your world on the 27th.”

Speaking about his character, Kamal Haasan said, “I always wanted to play a bad man because the bad man gets to do all the good things and have fun. Where the heroes are singing romantic songs and waiting for the heroine, he (bad guy) can just go ahead and do what he wants. I thought I was going to play the bad man so it’s going to be fun. But then, he (Ashwin) wanted it to be different. I’m almost like a sage in the film with a bad idea.”

He continued, “This get-up took a long time. We traveled to Los Angeles. We failed a couple of times before arriving on the first acceptable look for the director. I think and hope the audience will react the same way we did when we saw the look.”

Trailer Highlights

Recently, the makers unveiled a new trailer for the film.
