Kalank Box-Office Collection, Day 2: Abhishek Varman's Period Drama Hangs In Tight

Team Kalank can rejoice as the day 2 figures of the film are also positive and still in double digits. The film has made Rs 11.45 crore on Day 2, after marking a record-breaking opening of Rs 21.6 crore. The total till now in two days is at Rs 33.06 crore.

Kalank, starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sonakshi Sinha, Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt, has managed to keep the boat afloat, in spite of it being a working day (Thursday).

The movie has got decent reviews from masses and critics, alike. SpotboyE.com Editor, Vickey Lalwani rated it 3 stars and wrote, "“Heady mix- courtesan, scared father, young girl hopelessly in love, young man wanting to avenge his illegitimacy, husband who suggests that his wife is the first and last girl in his life and the wife who is counting her last days of existence. Interesting dance numbers by Kiara Advani (who often finds herself in bed with Dhawan Jr) and Kriti Sanon (who puts everything into her item number). But what I missed was the unpredictability in the story. When you have such a big cast staring at you, one is bound to expect a lot of twists and turns like in K3G, KHNH, K2H2 and KANK which take you by surprise. Sadly, that is missing here, perhaps because Abhishek Varman (director) rolls out the story in a very step-by-step way.” He also praised the climax and said, “Visually a treat packed with strong performances from most actors. The climax scene, in particular, will remain in your memory for a long time. It is patiently and beautifully shot, you feel for the characters and Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt excel in that frame.”

With a long weekend ahead, trade predicts a bright future for Kalank. We will keep you posted with the box-office figures of Karan Johar's big venture.
