“Kalki 2898 AD,” the epic sci-fi film directed by Nag Ashwin, has taken Indian cinema by storm. With its unique blend of mythological science fiction set in a futuristic world, the movie has captivated audiences since its release last month. Among the main characters, there’s one that stands out—an AI-powered car named “Bujji.” Makers react to Keerthy Suresh Voicing “Bujji” in “Kalki 2898 AD”.
Keerthy Suresh, the talented actress, lent her voice to this special character. Bujji, designed and modeled by Bhairava (played by Prabhas), is more than just a vehicle. It’s a trusted companion, a futuristic marvel with mammoth wheels that resemble the iconic Batmobile from Batman movies. Its transparent cockpit canopy evokes fighter aircraft design, adding to its allure.
But Bujji isn’t just about looks. It’s powered by two Mahindra electric motors, driving a rear spherical wheel. The electric propulsion system, combined with a 47 kWh battery pack, generates 126 bhp of peak power and an astonishing 9,800 Nm of maximum torque. Imagine the acceleration!
The vehicle’s dimensions are equally impressive: 6,075 mm in length, 3,380 mm in width, and 2,186 mm in height. Bujji can reach a top speed of 45 km/h and features battery-swapping technology—an essential feature in its dystopian world.
Makers react to Keerthy Suresh:
During the dubbing sessions, Keerthy Suresh breathed life into Bujji, infusing it with personality. Her voice brought humor and warmth to the character, making it more than just a machine. Prabhas, who portrays Bhairava, recently shared a behind-the-scenes video featuring Keerthy during the dubbing process. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude, saying, “Thank you, Keerthy Suresh, for being the voice of my Bujji.”
As the film continues to break box office records, Bujji remains a memorable part of “Kalki 2898 AD.” Its unique design, futuristic capabilities, and Keerthy’s voice have left an indelible mark on audiences. Whether it’s racing through the post-apocalyptic landscape or engaging in witty banter, Bujji is more than just a car—it’s Bhairava’s trusted friend.
“Kalki 2898 AD” explores the last remaining city on Earth, weaving together Hindu scriptures and a captivating storyline. With Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Haasan in lead roles, the film has become a blockbuster. Bujji’s role as Bhairava’s loyal companion adds an extra layer of intrigue, reminding us that even in a high-tech future, friendship transcends metal and circuits.
