"Karan got Amrita Mahal Nakai to work on the set's design and structure. They have created an old Delhi mohalla with a mahal, where filming is currently on. Kalank is set against the backdrop of the Partition. Since it's based in the 1940s, the set has been designed keeping that particular period in mind," a source reportedly told DNA.
Apart from Madhuri, Varun and Alia, Kalank also stars Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur. The movie will hit the screens on April 19 next year.
