Kabhi Khushi Kabhie… Kalank? Karan Johar Just Shared A Picture Of The Cast & It’s So…Original!

Until today, I had no idea that I could time travel. Or so it seems, courtesy Karan Johar. The filmmaker has been extra pumped up these days promoting his upcoming movie Kalank, which stars Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit. Impressive cast, right? The film’s teaser was launched only a few hours ago and received appreciation among the audience. 

But the time travel confusion cropped up when the cast put up pictures on their Instagram from today’s photo shoot. Let us show you before we tell you what we mean.

Alia posted this picture with a line from the film – Kalank nahi ishq hai (It’s not a disgrace, it’s love). But we are almost certain that Miss Bhatt misspoke because she probably meant to say – Kalank nahi Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham hai. This picture looks so similar to Karan Johar’s K3G poster shot, doesn’t it? The two films may be 18 years apart, but KJo hasn’t moved on from his style of capturing family drama.

– Three couples from two generations? Check.

– Colour coordination? Double check.

In fact, Sonakshi’s gorgeous red outfit is a strong reminder of Poo’s iconic red outfit from the song You Are My Sonia. Look, look!

A true fan would remember that Poo’s outfit came with a matching red dupatta which she took off for the prom dance.

Up till now, the teaser of Kalank has been giving us major Sanjay Leela Bhansali feels. But now, we are not too sure about that. The film is set to release on April 17, 2019. Only time will tell…
