rdf:langString Kalank (transl. Stigma or Blemish; Hindi pronunciation: [kələnk]) is a 2019 Indian Hindi-language period romantic drama film directed by Abhishek Varman and produced by Karan Johar, Hiroo Yash Johar and Apoorva Mehta under Dharma Productions and Sajid Nadiadwala under Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment in association with Fox Star Studios as presenter and distributor. Set in the pre-independence British era, the film stars an ensemble cast of Madhuri Dixit, Sonakshi Sinha, Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Aditya Roy Kapur and Sanjay Dutt. Kalank marked the first film distributed by Fox Star Studios following the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney. Kalank released on 17 April 2019 on 5,300 screens worldwide, making it the widest Bollywood release of 2019 as yet. The film grossed around ₹146.31 crore, hence emerging as a commercial failure at the box office. It received mixed reviews upon release, with criticism towards its direction, story, screenplay and length, but praise for its soundtrack, cinematography, production design, costumes and performances of the ensemble cast. At the 65th Filmfare Awards, Kalank received 9 nominations, including Best Supporting Actress (Dixit) and Best Music Director (Pritam), and won 2 awards – Best Male Playback Singer (Arijit Singh for "Kalank") and Best Choreography (Remo D'Souza for "Ghar More Pardesiya").
