Released earlier this year in April, the film is a tragic romantic tale of the protagonist with a girl, played by Banita Sandhu, who meets with an accident and slips into a coma. The story depicted the life of a hotel-management intern who takes care of this comatose fellow intern unconditionally and unconventionally.
On the work front, Varun Dhawan will be next seen in Kalank along with Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Dutt.
