During the chat, Arshad praised Rajkummar Rao’s performance in the movie, saying “I saw Stree 2. I loved it, I thought it was fab. I really liked it.

Arshad on his Kalki 2898 AD ‘joker’ comment

Arshad recently courted controversy with his ‘joker’ comment on Prabhas for his performance in Kalki 2898 AD. He said how he was expecting something of the level of Mad Max but was left disappointed. This has not only invited heavy trolling on social media but also reignited the Bollywood vs South cinema debate. Many Tollywood celebrities also jumped into the matter suggesting he should have chosen his words wisely.

During the same interview chat, Arshad reflected on the backlash and said, “I have already decided I will love every film that I am going to see. I have made up my mind, every actor I like, every script I like, every director I like.”

Earlier last month, while appearing at IIFA 2024, Arshad clarified his stance on the matter for the first time and called Prabhas a "brilliant actor", but seemingly did not change his views about Kalki 2898 AD.
