All eyes were on the teaser which released today, and it was gorgeous and how. It wasn’t just the fourth time that Varun and Alia had teamed up but after a gap of almost two decades, Sanjay and Madhuri has shared screen space. After watching the teaser of Kalank, certain scenes from it takes us back to five beautiful films – Raazi, Dedh Ishqiya, Lootera, Baahubali and Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela.

Alia Bhatt’s bridal look in Kalank reminds us of her avatar in Raazi. Those few seconds of the wedding scene in this period drama takes us back to Alia Bhatt’s character Sehmat Khan that she essayed in Raazi. Here is an emotional bride who is waiting for a mysterious story to be told, and there we saw a young girl making sacrifices to safeguard the nation.

Pakhi Roy Chaudhary from Lootera is all what we can think when see Sonakshi Sinha in the teaser of Kalank. Though she described the meaning behind her name (Satya Chaudhry) as ‘love, longing, integrity and sacrifice’, we can’t stop thinking of the aspiring writer from Lootera.

Ranveer Singh’s chiseled body and kohled eyes look in Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela cannot be forgotten. And now when we see Varun Dhawan in Kalank, the look of both of the actors are so similar. There is not just one but many parameters which makes us say, the similarity between the two is umissable and the picture is proof. Kalank Teaser OUT!
