Kalki 2 Shoot Set to Begin Soon

According to multiple entertainment updates, Prabhas is scheduled to commence principal photography for Kalki 2 in early February 2026. The film is the sequel to the 2024 sci-fi epic Kalki 2898 AD, directed by Nag Ashwin and known for its grand scale and innovative visuals.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting news of the sequel since the first installment became a major commercial success, and reports suggest the production team is planning a fast-moving schedule to keep momentum going.

Simultaneous Commitment to Spirit

At the same time, Prabhas continues to work on Spirit — the upcoming action thriller directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film, which marks Prabhas’s first collaboration with Vanga, began its shooting process in late 2025 and features an intense role for the actor alongside co-stars including Triptii Dimri.

Reports indicate that the actor will be balancing the schedules of both Kalki 2 and Spirit, making February 2026 one of the most demanding months of his professional calendar. At various points he is expected to alternate between sets — kicking off Kalki 2 before returning to continue filming portions for Spirit.

A Packed Year for Prabhas

This ambitious timetable comes on the heels of Prabhas’s recent film The Raja Saab, which enjoyed strong box office returns. Building on that momentum, industry watchers say the actor’s packed 2026 schedule reflects both his star power and the high expectations surrounding his upcoming releases.

The decision to juggle two major projects has fueled excitement among fans and insiders alike. While Kalki 2 promises to expand the universe of the futuristic saga, Spirit is anticipated to be a gritty, action-driven drama in the vein of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s earlier works.

What Kalki 2 Means for Prabhas’s Filmography

The Kalki franchise has been one of Prabhas’s most ambitious ventures, blending science fiction with mythological storytelling. With Kalki 2 set to begin filming in February, expectations are high that the sequel will push creative boundaries further and offer fresh narrative depth following the success of Kalki 2898 AD’s first chapter.

Although details about the full cast and plot remain tightly guarded, industry chatter has kept fans engaged over recent months, especially following changes in personnel and the update on the new shooting schedule.

What to Expect from Spirit

Meanwhile, Spirit — written and directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga — continues to generate buzz as one of the most talked-about upcoming films in Indian cinema. Known for his stylistic storytelling and character-driven narratives, Vanga’s collaboration with Prabhas is highly anticipated.
