Leading the cast is pan-Indian star Prabhas, under the direction of the renowned filmmaker Nag Ashwin. Notably, this film marks the Telugu cinema debut of celebrated Bollywood star Deepika Padukone. 

Recent updates have revealed that the master craftsman SS Rajamouli is set to make a cameo appearance in Nag Ashwin's directorial venture. 

It's worth noting that the director of the blockbuster RRR has previously made memorable cameo appearances in his own films and even occasional advertisements, showcasing his willingness to grace the silver screen. 

His charismatic onscreen presence was especially lauded when he appeared in a promotional video for his Oscar-award-winning film.

While Rajamouli doesn't have plans to transition into a full-time actor, reports suggest that the Project K team has successfully convinced him to play a special role in this Prabhas and Deepika Padukone starrer. 

With the addition of the Baahubali director to the star-studded cast, the sci-fi fantasy film has undoubtedly become even more enticing. Nevertheless, neither the makers of Kalki 2898 AD nor SS Rajamouli have officially commented on these reports yet.

As previously reported, veteran actor Kamal Haasan takes on the role of the lead antagonist in Kalki 2898 AD. The legendary Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan and actress Disha Patani are essaying pivotal roles in Project K, which boasts a stellar supporting cast including Pasupathy, Saswata Chatterjee, and many others.

According to recent reports, pan-Indian star Dulquer Salmaan is also set to make a special appearance in the film. Santhosh Narayanan is composing the film's songs and original score, while Djordje Stojiljkovic serves as the director of photography.
