Killing it ka toh pata nahi but she has been coming across pretty insecure about this multistarrer😆

It was reported she had to learn a certain kind of dance for the song she did with Madhuri so i'm interested to see that.

My hype level dropped after that spoiler article that was posted on here. Why would anyone spoil the whole movie like that.

Kalank leaked: Story, major details of Varun, Madhuri and Sonakshi's characters revealed

The makers of Kalank were taking extra measures to keep the details of the cast under wraps, but it looks like they failed to keep it a secret.

Karan Johar's Kalank PosterPR Handout

Karan Johar's Kalank has been in news ever since Janhvi Kapoor announced that Madhuri Dixit Nene will step into the shoes of Sridevi's role in the Abhishek Varman directorial. Along with Madhuri, the movie also stars Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur. The makers were taking extra measures to keep the details of the cast under wraps, but it looks like they failed to keep it a secret.

According to Catch News, Madhuri Dixit, Varun Dhawan and Sonakshi Sinha will be playing key roles in the film. Varun will be seen playing a Muslim blacksmith whose shop will be in the famous Lahore market called Heera Mandi which was later turned into a red light area by the British.

Madhuri Dixit will be playing prostitutes' leader while Sonakshi Sinha will be playing the role of a banjaran (migrant). Aditya Roy Kapur will play the role of an artisan who teams up with Varun Dhawan to start a rebellion against the British government.

Kalank tells the story of that time when the blacksmiths and prostitutes joined hands and defeated the British after putting up a brave fight. The first 15 minutes of the film will reportedly have an intense action sequence, and Varun Dhawan has already shot the whole sequence in a single take.

However, Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Dutt's roles in the film are yet to be known.

If the reports are anything to go by, it will be interesting to see the different kind of looks the lead actors would don in the film to look authentic for their respective parts.

On a related note, a huge set worth Rs 15 crores has been erected in Film City, which is under heavy security to ensure that pictures of the interiors are not leaked.

"Karan Johar got Amrita Mahal Nakai to work on the set's design and structure. They have created an old Delhi mohalla with a mahal, where filming is currently on. Kalank is set against the backdrop of the Partition. Since it's based in the 1940s, the set has been designed keeping that particular period in mind," a source was quoted as saying by DNA.

The movie is slated for release on April 19, 2019.

Alia has been killing it so far. Replaceable or not, who really thinks about all that. They watch a movie, they like the charecter, they like the actor and appreciate them. Permutations and combinations ke liye kiske pass Itna time rehta hai. All the actors in Gully Boy have been receiving a lot of praise and appreciation for their respective roles.

From daywise countdown on insta to show off how much she has been shooting for Kalank, to being the 1st one to post about her co-stars pack up & ofcourse harping about how she is the only one to have scenes & storyline with every1 since Raazi days😆

Kalank mein ye haal hai toh Takht mein kya hoga which has 4 female leads although even Kalank has 6 actresses but all are evidently 2nd fiddle except for Madhuri maybe...

Btw @Dan & @Jb last I heard Madhuri denied to have a dance song with Alia

Really Madhuri denied the dance song. Then why were there so many pr articles stating she is learning kathak from pandit birju maharaj to match steps with Madhuri 😕

She needs to relax, karan will make sure she gets all the limelight.

As far as I understand, Madhuri's character has a separate dance song (co-choreographed by Saroj and Remo) - frankly, her mujra is the only aspect of the movie that excites me. Alia's character will be dancing and watched by Madhuri's character at some point. Looking at the principal cast I realized Madhuri is THE ONLY outsider. So annoying.

If Kjo has no common sense left he will try to build up Alia at the expense of other actors. I'm quite suspicious of his intentions once I read about Alia's kathak lessons. Apparently, according to kjo it takes merely a few months to learn kathak - keep on deluding yourself, sweeties. But I digress.

Other pieces of goss (some of them posted here, I think) suggest that the story is rather weak and that, apart from Madhuri and Alia, the lead actors look too modern.
