Karna was always put on pedestal by all culture, just look at Hindi star plus mb. There were serials made on him. Dude was a grey character like others, just cause he didn't know he's kuntis son he was a tragic hero and modern culture white washed his grey character. Cause orphan/adopted - he can't do no wrong awww poor kid so what he participated in bastraharan he didn't know who his mommy was. 

I agree that every culture is guilty of trying to beat a tragic hero out of Karna but it was made worse for Telugu people by NTR sr, the legendary Telugu actor and Filmmaker, who made multiple movies on Karna and Duryodhana depicting them as the ultimate heros who were done dirty by Pandavas and Lord Krishna. Unfortunately his movies are the go to source material for a lot of current Telugu filmmakers.

I wonder if it will be as insanely front loaded as Salaar.  I've never seen anything like it in the U.S. B.O.

KALKI US Numbers

WED Previews:  $3.9m

THUR OD: $1.6m

My guess is they had those crazy inflated ticket prices for previews.

Just make him parshuram for f sake

yep, that’s exactly what I said…! Just make him a parshuram and it would be more logically and plays right into the folklore!

#kalki2898ad is going to go the Bahubali way. Prabhas has multiple shades to a well fleshed out character and he shines brilliantly @SrBachchan

sir proves that he's the Shahenshah. The Action star simply roars! @ikamalhaasan

Sahab makes every second count of his screen presence. @deepikapadukone

once again is a part of a big bonanza. Superb cameos by @RGVzoomin

@ssrajamouli

@TheDeverakonda

and @dulQuer

... outstanding VFX. Film ends on a sequel note and this Kalki sequel will be awaited with the same intensity as Bahubali 2.
