Kalank

A lady with terminal cancer (Sonakshi Sinha) tries to fix a second marriage for her husband before she dies. They live in a small town near Lahore and she finds the girl she wants in a Hindu village in India. But the girl (Alia Bhatt) won't agree to wait till the first wife dies and says she'll enter the house only as the second wife. But she soon finds herself lonely and unloved as her new husband (Aditya Roy Kapur) loves his first wife only and says so. He's obviously into mature women and not wispy young girls. And the wispy young girl is not into serious, intellectual men. Left to herself, she falls for a young blacksmith (Varun Dhavan). It is soon revealed that the two men share the same father (Sanjay Dutt). One is his illegitimate son by a brothel keeper (Madhuri Dixit). The other is the highly educated editor of the local newspaper. After all this is established, the film drags slowly to a fairly predictable resolution. The sets are unrealistically opulent, with the brothel resembling a five star heritage resort and the rich man's house resembling the White House. Kalank is part of a now established genre in Bollywood, which includes films like Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Eklavya: The Royal Guard.

Why is there so much hate towards this film! I am really annoyed and disappointed with all the negative reviews and people who are finding faults and criticising this outstanding well made film.

The acting all around was incredible, the set of the film was amazing as well as having a great story line.

Madhuri Dixit, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapoor---- I'm really speechless for the wonderful roles they played and whatever role was theirs, they did absolute justice to it.. The roles of Madhuri, Varun and Alia are highly highly commendable..My big appreciation and admiration to such stars who played the characters soo well and put life in them as real..

The cinematography was also very amazing.

Will definitely watch this film again once it comes to Amazon Prime!

Bahaar Begum is the life of Kalank, had her back story been more meated out, the emotional quotient of the movie would have been on another level. Madhuri Dixit, you are a treasure to this Industry. Superb Musical score!
