Over the years, Bollywood has seen many movies, which have featured some memorable road trips. Be it Bombay to Goa (1972), Dil Chahta Hai (2001), Jab We Met (2007) or Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011), all these 'road-trip' movies have left an indelible mark on the audience's minds with their fresh storylines. Now with Irrfan Khan starrer Karwaan, Bollywood is all set for yet-another film based on a road trip. Interestingly, Karwaan also marks to be Irrfan's second road trip film post the 2015 release, Piku with Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone.
Karwaan starring Irrfan and marking the debut of Malayalam film industry's heartthrob Dulquer Salmaan and internet sensation Mithila Palkar, revolves around 3 oddballs from different walks of life, who are thrown together on a somewhat bizarre journey that helps them find normalcy in their lives. It is a road trip on which some crazy adventures take place, some lines are crossed, some bonds are forged, detours are made, experiences are shared and secrets are revealed.
An uneasy alliance is formed between three unlikely co-passengers on an eventful (and often hilarious) journey from Bangalore to Ooty to Kumarakom and finally to Kochi. Produced by Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP in association with Priti Rathi Gupta of 'Ishka films', Karwaan is directed by Akarsh Khurana and is slated to release on 3rd August, 2018.
