Here’s why Karan Johar introduced Alia Bhatt, Madhuri Dixit and Sonakshi Sinha before the male actors
The much-anticipated film Kalank has just dropped its teaser on Tuesday. Days before the teaser launch, the makers revealed the posters of each character of the film. The women of Kalank were introduced before men. Even in the teaser, Madhuri Dixit, Alia Bhatt and Sonakshi Sinha are mentioned before Sanjay Dutt, Varun Dhawan and Aditya Roy Kapur. When producer Karan Johar was questioned about the thought behind this move, he said that the women of Kalank are playing the major role in the multi-starrer film, hence their names come first.
Karan explained: "We are brought into this world by women. I am raised by strong women and I would say that these three women characters are the heart, soul and spine of Kalank. So, their strength, beauty and intellect (is something) men could never match up."
Adding, Sonakshi said: "Hopefully, a time will come when such questions will not pop up any more."
According to Alia, the film, which also stars Sanjay Dutt, Varun Dhawan and Aditya Roy Kapur, among others, is a true ensemble film as "every character is primary".
Directed by Abhishek Verman Kalank is releasing on April 17.
