The film's director, Nag Ashwin, in an interview with NDTV's Abira Dhar,  shared his work experience with the living legend. "The first day of shoot was with Mr Bachchan Sir and that was as intimidating as it could get," said Nag Ashwin. The filmmaker added that he was intimated at first but Big B made the entire process very "easy."

Nag Ashwin told NDTV, "He was in proper prosthetics... and it was first day of shoot of this film. So, I was just trying to figure out how to work with him. What the boundaries are? Can I tell him that we need more takes? How do I tell him what to do? I think it was because of the experience and the superstar that he is. He just made it all easy and comfortable and he was fully available and made things happen." Kalki 2898 AD released in multiple languages on June 27.
