Kalank Box-Office Collection: Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt’s film earns Rs 69 crore in 7 days

Karan Johar's ambitious project Kalank witnessed a 10 per cent drop in its box office collection on Tuesday. According a report in Boxofficeindia.com, the multi-starrer collected an estimated Rs 3.20 crore on its seventh day, bringing its total collection to Rs 69.25 crore. Directed by Abhishek Varman, Kalank stars Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Duttt, Madhuri Dixit, Kunal Khemu, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapoor in lead roles.

Kalank witnessed highest opening of 2019, followed by Akshay Kumar's Kesari and Ranveer Singh's Gully Boy. The film collected Rs 21.60 crore on Day 1, but the film's collections have dropped rapidly since then.

“The film had an extended five-day weekend which has actually helped the film get this far, if it was a normal weekend then the collections would be far lower as the weekday collections would probably have come down to these levels regardless of a normal weekend or extended weekend. The best business for the film will come in Mumbai and Mysore with West Bengal also holding better on weekdays”, according to Box Office India report.

Kalank, set in the 1940s, is a period drama, which revolves around stories of six characters who are connected by love and revenge. The film hit the screens on April 17.
