Kamal Haasan is basking in the success of his latest offering Kalki 2898 AD. Recently, the actor spoke about his limited screen time in the film. During a press meet in Chennai, the actor said, "In Kalki, I have played a small role that makes an appearance for a few minutes only.

"We have been seeing many signifiers that Indian cinema is moving towards global entertainment, and Kalki 2898 AD is one among them. Nag Ashwin carefully handled the subject of mythology without any religious bias. Across the world, only Japan, China, and Greek civilizations can come close to the Indian heritage of storytelling. Ashwin has chosen stories from that and has executed it with a lot of patience by bringing everyone together," Kamal Haasan added.
