Filmmaker Karan Johar has shared the stunning first look at this upcoming production, Kalank. He took to Instagram to share the post and asked fans to stay tuned for more on Thursday.
His post about the film—starring Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan in lead roles—included a beautiful picture of a woman and man in a boat, surrounded by large flowers in a lake. The woman is dressed in all white while the man rows the boat. Their faces are not visible in the picture.

This will be Varun and Alia’s fourth film together. Following their debut in Karan Johar’s Student of the Year, the duo went on to act in two other films Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania. He recently took to Instagram to share: “It’s my fourth film with Alia Bhatt. Wow, and it always feels like it’s new. She is amazing in the film but one thing she has done great is run very well, and I’m proud of her. Lol. She knows she is my favourite but Shanaya, Kavya, Vaidehi and... wait for it, you guys are going to be as blown away as I was by her. All our fans, we work damn hard just to make sure we don’t let you down and hope we don’t.”
Varun and Alia talked about the film on Twitter on Wednesday and he tweeted that Alia will manage marketing for the film. “Breaking - @aliaa08 to handle #kalank marketing,” he wrote in his tweet. “Hahaha...I’ve learnt from the best,” she replied. When a fan asked Varun to release the film’s trailer, he replied, “Its coming soon i promise #wewantkalanktrailer.”
