Kalki 2898 AD’s Director Nag Ashwin Makes A Bold Move: Tweets Invitation for Elon Musk to Drive Futuristic "Bujji"
Fans of the upcoming sci-fi Kalki 2898 AD are already buzzing thanks to B&B: Bujji and Bhairava, a quirky animated prelude that introduces viewers to the film's world. Recently Prabhas himself entered in style riding Bujji at its launch event but the buzz reached a whole new level recently when director Nag Ashwin took to Twitter with a direct invitation to Tesla company owner Elon Musk.
On May 29th, Nag Ashwin tweeted an invitation to Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, to not only see Bujji, but to drive it as well! He called Bujji a "6-ton beast" and even suggested a photo op with Tesla's own futuristic offering, the Cybertruck. The tweet, a stroke of marketing genius, went viral only within 12 hours with the hashtag #bujjicallingelonmusk. Netizens revelled in the idea of the two futuristic vehicles sharing the spotlight. Prabhas lends his voice to Bhairava, the film's protagonist, while Bujji, a unique three-wheeled, 6-ton electric vehicle, serves as his companion and partner-in-crime.
The Kalki 2898 AD team has generated immense excitement with this social media manoeuvre. While fans can get a taste of the 2-episode series B&B: Bujji and Bhairava on 31st May on Prime Video, the real spectacle awaits on the big screen. Kalki 2898 AD, a full-fledged film boasting a stellar cast including Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and more, hits theatres on June 27th.
