The teaser launch of Kalank, producer Karan Johar had mentioned that this film is his dream project, and it was Abhishek, who understood his emotion and took the baton of executing it on the big screens. Therefore, Karan handed over the responsibility to Abhishek Varman to weave Kalank through his vision.
Kalank is a love saga set in the 1940s, which effortlessly delves into the love-lives of the film's characters - Varun as Zafar, Alia as Roop, Sonakshi as Satya, Aditya as Dev Chaudhry, Madhuri Dixit as Bahaar Begum and Sanjay Dutt as Balraj Chaudhry. Kalank has been in the news ever since its inception, courtesy, Karan Johar. He kept unravelling the film a little every day.
The film, which is helmed by Abhishek Varman, is extremely special to Karan Johar's heart because it was his father, producer Yash Johar's last project that he conceptualised 15 years ago. However, this film never took off. After the release of Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), Karan Johar wanted himself to direct this film, but unfortunately, the film, now Takht got pushed to the back burner.
