Unfortunately, superstar Prabhas will miss the premiere of ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ in Japan on December 18 due to his knee injury. His blockbuster film is set to release in Japan on January 3, 2025 during Shogatsu, the much-awaited event of Japanese New Year. “To my dear fans in Japan, I apologize for not being able to join you at the premiere due to my injury. I hope you enjoy the film, and I look forward to seeing you soon,’ Prabhas lamented on his social media handle.
Prabhas injured his leg during the shooting of the film and has been advised to rest, thus canceling his Japan tour. This will be his first visit to the country for promotion.
However, director Nag Ashwin will make up for it as he graces the show. The team shared on their social media handle that director Nag Ashwin will attend the Japan premiere. “Though Prabhas can’t be there, his presence shines in Kalki 2898 AD. Japanese audiences will love the experience!”
The Japanese release during Shogatsu, a time of hope and renewal, is a perfect match for the film’s theme.
On the work front, Prabhas had to wrap up his work for ‘The Raja Saab’, which is slated to release in April, and his other big films like ‘Fauji’ and start shooting for ‘Spirit’ with Sandeep Reddy Vanga in December. .
