Kalki 2898 AD Premise
In "Kalki 2898 AD," the world undergoes a significant transformation by the year 2898. The desertified city of Kasi stands as humanity's last refuge, ruled by the god-king Supreme Yaskin from his towering, inverted pyramid fortress known as "The Complex." This dystopian society is tightly controlled and serves as the backdrop for an expansive narrative that masterfully blends ancient Hindu mythology from the Mahabharata era in 3102 BC with a distant, post-apocalyptic future. Central to the story is the enigmatic rise of Kalki, the final avatar of Vishnu, destined to appear during these turbulent times.Â
