A day before Kalank opened in cinemas, a special screening of the film was hosted by Dharma Productions, which was attended by cast members Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur, and their guests Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor, Ananya Panday, Ishaan Khatter, Neha Dhupia, Soha Ali Khan and Kriti Sanon (who also features in a special song in the film), among others. Producer Karan Johar also made a flamboyant (you expected subtle?) appearance. For the screening, Alia Bhatt opted for an over-sized white suit, which she paired with minimal accessories and a dazzling smile. Kalank also stars Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt. Take a look at team Kalank at the film's screening on Tuesday.
