Kalank on Moviebuff.com

The story is based in a town called Husnabad, near Lahore, a few years before the Partition of India and Pakistan. At the heart of this visual extravaganza, is the story of how eternal love goes beyond the norms and rules of society, the trappings of religion, all other physical and man-made boundaries. It is the saga of six lives against the tumultuous times of the partition.

A Bollywood love story in the shadow of partition

Kalank is an extravagant affair that leaves you in awe.
