KALANK Movie Review


#Cast : @aliaabhatt@varundvn @aslisona@adityaroykapur@madhuridixitnene @duttsanjay , Kunal Kemmu

#Director: Abhishek Varman 
#Story: A complex love story set during India’s Partition era, where the young Roop (Alia Bhatt) is torn between respect for husband Dev (Aditya Roy Kapur) and her newfound love for Zafar (Varun Dhawan). While their back stories and heart-breaking love saga unfolds, the history of India takes an epic turn, from where there is no coming back

#Performance: The biggest highlight of the film is the star-studded cast and thankfully, the performances measure up to the epic ensemble. Alia Bhatt leads the way in a role that showcases vulnerability and strength in equal measure. Varun Dhawan, flaunting his superbly toned, greased body looks great for the part and he shows immense intensity that his conflicted character demands. Another stand-out performance comes from Aditya Roy Kapur who excels in the stoic silences and reserved nature of his character. Madhuri Dixit-Nene, Sanjay Dutt and Sonakshi Sinha chip in with moments of pitch-perfect drama, too. Kunal Kemmu as Zafar's friend Abdul, brings in tension and thrills in his grey-shaded role. The joint efforts of the cast add the proverbial punch to the experience of Kalank.

#Negative : While Kalank scales up the production in every aspect, at times, the world that it recreates looks a little too plush and away from reality.At 2 hours and 48 minutes, with a tighter edit the story could have wrapped up much sooner though.

#Positives : The film features arresting frames full of grand visuals captured by cinematographer Binod Pradhan and the music by Pritam has stand out songs like Ghar More Pardesiya and the Kalank title track. Kalank is a true labour of love that tells you a story laced with beautiful moments that will tug at your heartstrings.
Final verdict : A must watch for this multi starrer film ..a perfectly crafted film 
Rating : 3.5 - Milind Rokade
