The trailer was amazing. I think I had too many expectations, which weren't met . The actors have done their role beautifully. The settings and costumes were too good . For a second it felt like a SLB movie . But then the screenplay lags at various times . Logic in some scenes were clearly missing . Songs and dancing were great , but those can't clearly improve the story of the movie . Do go it a miss if you don't want to see another cliched Hindu - Muslim lovestory along with a love triangle .

nishasuperboy17 April 2019Fetch your tickets only for it's amazing visuals and great music especially the BGM . Couldn't feel much impact in the story because of its slow paced narration , but the climax will definitely satisfy and will define the movie properly.

trinka_trinka_mahadeva18 April 2019Story: You know it already from the trailer.
Making: It's very grand and huge in scale.
Acting: Only Alia Bhat acts in this whole movie.
Direction: There was no need for director since there is no story.
Overall: Waste of time and money. -
CineRenaissance17 April 2019Nothing new, same wealthy royal family drama because of an outsider. Such a huge budget and star cast wasted. Varun Dhavan failed to deliver the weight in acting which his character demands.
Sanjay Dutt's personality justifies his role. Alia seems wanabe central character of the film, but fails to be so. The film becomes unbearable even till interval. -
soumi_1117 April 2019A typical Bollywood film to make appeal to Pakistani audience. This film is the same old "religion" vs "humanity" , where Zafar is of other religion. my question is why cant Zafar denounce his religion for his loved one?And there is no character development for Zafar. Direction wise the movie is really bad, probably one of the worst direction of all time.No plot.No character Development. Only Melodrama. Director is wannabe SanjayLeelaBansari. Music is forgettable and Pritam's worst movie as music director. Like other review says, the film is extremely boring.

kapoor-vibhu17 April 2019This Movie should only be watched if you want to punish yourself by sitting through 3hours of torture. Bland movie, extremely slow, boring,monotonous with weak and predictable story with dose of overacting

paritoshfzd17 April 2019I can't even sit for two hours totally waste of time and money

adityabhatt-5257917 April 2019This movie brings nothing new to the table apart from the great sets and costumes. Typical Hindu-Muslim story which I guess everyone is probably sick of now. Can't the writers come with something original or innovative, Movie is very predictable and has very little to offer. What a waste of talent of the star power in this movie.

mohammedsulemanbalwar19 April 2019I saw this movie today only
There are lots of suspense in it and movie is also good but I hate the last scene
I think instead of Zafar (Varun Dhawan) died, if Dev (Aditya) dead then it will good as he truly love his wife satya (Sonakshi) not the Roop (Alia Bhat) -
sharedkumar18 April 2019Only one word for it "KALANK" I WANT MY MONEY BACK😪😪

kingkass20 April 2019This film should and could have been a lot better with some more rewrites but a lot of the film works. The dialogue is extremely over the top to the point where every sentence uttered by a character is a metaphor at times. Although I feel some lines do come together at the end successfuly. The songs are fantastic. It looks and sounds brilliant. 10/10 in that regard. It's just the story doesn't really hook you until near the end. I feel the acting was quite good overall but the standouts were definitely Varun Dhawan and Madhuri. It ends on a good note which makes the whole experience worth it for me. I wish more effort was put into the story though.

payalts17 April 20191 just for the sets and costumes Movie has nothing else. Weak story line, acting, direction. Walked out after the interval, that should say it all.

Plot: Cliché Drama of Love, Relationships and Life
Good : Alia outshines everyone. Looking ravishing, beautiful and delicate from start till the end, all thanks to her amazing costumes, make-up and poise! Rest, all are manageable! Nothing extraordinary!
Production design has done wonderful job at creating a complete city from scratch! Costumes are fabulous! Especially Alia and Aditya's costumes are worth a mention!
Bad: Music is very average, never works in favor of the film! At times, it breaks the continuity of the film too. Like all are sobbing and abruptly Kriti Sanon barges in with Saiyya Mera with zero expressions and lame dance moves, the city is on fire, relationships are getting tested and Madhuri can't stop dancing on Tabah Ho Gaye etc). Even, the only manageable song "Kalank" gets wasted and poorly utilized and no emotions gets translated to the audience!
Overall writing is too bad, being set in Year 1945 won't give you a licence to tell a lame and lazy story!!!
Dialogues which would have been the strength of this kind of "Period Drama" are so bland! I can still enjoy "SLB's Devdas" for that fact!
You can get the lame "references" from other hit films like HDDCS Aishwarya's entry Patang Wala Song - Alia Entry Song, HDDCS Aishwarya's Look - Alia Look, HDDCS Salman-Ajay getting drunk, talking about their love, singing Dholi Taro- Varun - Aditya scene, even HDDCS Chandelier (Jhumaar) reappeared here, DDLJ's train climax - yes, it was hanging here too, and many more....)
Strictly any emotion get conveyed to the audience! I had no emotional connect at all, neither in the start, nor in the end! I can feel no pain of what these characters are going through I was just waiting it to be over!
Length is 2Hours 48 Minutes long! Be prepared, as it feels a decade inside the theater!
And yes, the story is so predictable that you can guess that in the start only, I got it right after only 8 Mins into the film, literally, 8 mins!!!
All in all, paisa Bachao, Avengers Endgame Dekho next week! Baaki sab first class hai -
gopilal-0983517 April 2019Tittle defines movie "Kalank" Yesss This movie is Kalank, Don't waste your money. Save it for your breakfast 👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿

rohantaneja-4325821 April 2019Why is there so much hate towards this film! I am really annoyed and disappointed with all the negative reviews and people who are finding faults and criticising this outstanding well made film.
The acting all around was incredible, the set of the film was amazing as well as having a great story line.
Madhuri Dixit, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapoor---- I'm really speechless for the wonderful roles they played and whatever role was theirs, they did absolute justice to it.. The roles of Madhuri, Varun and Alia are highly highly commendable..My big appreciation and admiration to such stars who played the characters soo well and put life in them as real..
The cinematography was also very amazing.
Will definitely watch this film again once it comes to Amazon Prime! -
sharedkumar18 April 2019So much slow motion effects with ugly sets and costumes, very poor vfx. very loose story and and poor acting. (-10/10)
-
cdcrb25 April 2019Obviously, something funny is going on with the rating. anyway, I liked the film a lot. it's certainly an old story, but it's done well and the leads are all great. and it's not 3 hours long. close, though.

aadilmoosa2720 April 2019Bahaar Begum is the life of Kalank, had her back story been more meated out, the emotional quotient of the movie would have been on another level. Madhuri Dixit, you are a treasure to this Industry. Superb Musical score!
