In a video played at the pre-release event, director Nag Ashwin explained the division of the world in “Kalki 2898 AD” into Kasi, Complex, and Shambala. He stated, “Ganga is dry, and people are struggling. A mega city called Complex has ample resources. The people of Kasi dream to enter Complex, but it’s a trap to make them work for it. Shambala, the Shangri-La, a mystical world, is the refuge for rebels and those fighting against the Complex.”
