With Kalank, the makers have attempted to replicate the grandeur that has become a trademark of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period films but fail miserably. At the centre of the Mandi is the courtesan Bahaar Begum (Madhuri Dixit), who suffered heartbreak at the hands of a landlord (Sanjay Dutt) years ago. Writer-director Abhishek Varman has shot most of the film inside the grand, lavish sets, modelled to be the red light area, Hira Mandi. With no love in their marriage, Roop easily falls for a blacksmith Zafar (Varun Dhawan) from the city's red light area. Set during the partition era of the 1940s, Kalank is a complex love story set in Husnabad, the fictional neighbourhood in Lahore.Ī young girl Roop (Alia Bhatt) agrees to be the second wife of Dev (Aditya Roy Kapur) on the insistence of his dying wife Satya (Sonakshi Sinha).
