Zafar seduces Roop, the second wife of Balraj’s son Dev (Aditya Roy Kapur), who has been brought into the family on the express wish of Dev’s terminally ill spouse Satya (Sonakshi Sinha). In the city’s Hira Mandi red-light district, blacksmith Zafar (Varun Dhawan) forges swords and fashions his anger at being rejected by his mother, the courtesan Bahar Begum (Madhuri Dixit), and his father, the landlord Balraj (Sanjay Dutt), into a weapon of destruction. Kalank is set in the fictitional Lahore neighbourhood of Husnabad in the mid-1940s. The film has been written and directed by Abhishek Varman ( 2 States, 2014) and is based on a story by Shibani Bathija. It also attempts to replicate the epic kitsch aesthetic popularised by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Kalank borrows some ideas from Trishul as well as Deepa Mehta’s Partition-themed Earth (1998). ![]() Amitabh Bachchan played the illegitimate and rejected son of a builder, who exacted his revenge by competing with his father to put phallic symbols of his rage on the horizon and driving a wedge between his siblings. In his 1978 film Trishul, Chopra and screenwriters Salim-Javed turned their attention to a more intimate kind of division, one caused by perfidy and cowardice. Yash Chopra examined the Partition of 1947 both directly ( Dharmaputra, 1961) and indirectly ( Waqt, 1965).
