The much-anticipated first song from Nag Ashwin's futuristic film Kalki 2898 AD, titled Bhairava Anthem, was released on Sunday. This peppy number brings together the dynamic voices of Diljit Dosanjh and Deepak Blue, creating a unique blend of Punjabi and Telugu lyrics, composed by the talented Santosh Narayanan.
Kalki 2898 AD boasts a stellar cast, including Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan and Disha Patani. Set in a dystopian future, the film depicts the struggles of people living in Kashi, waiting for the reincarnation of Kalki while resources are hoarded by the Complex. Prabhas takes on the role of a hunter in this epic narrative.

Bhairava Anthem stands out for its experimental approach, seamlessly merging Punjabi and Telugu lyrics. The Telugu lyrics are replaced in the Tamil and Hindi versions, but the vibrant Punjabi lyrics remain consistent across all versions. This cross-cultural blend has resonated with fans, who took to social media to share their excitement. One fan tweeted, “Already naaku ekkesindi #BhairavaAnthem. Hindi and Tamil good but Repeats lo Telugu kuda ekkesindi. (I already like Bhairava Anthem. I like it in Hindi and Tamil but have begun liking it in Telugu after hearing it repeatedly).”
Kalki 2898 AD is set to hit theatres on June 27 and will be available in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi.
