Despite
striking
thunder
at
the
box
office
on
its
first
day,
the
period
drama,
Kalank,
has
failed
to
maintain
the
same
collection
on
its
third
day
i.e.,
Friday
and
the
film
has
witnessed
a
major
drop,
as
compared
to
Wednesday.
The
film,
which
is
directed
by
Abhishek
Verman
and
casts
stars
like
Alia
Bhatt,
Varun
Dhawan,
Sanjay
Dutt,
Madhuri
Dixit,
Aditya
Roy
Kapur
and
Sonakshi
Sinha
in
the
lead
roles,
would
have
collected
approximately
Rs
12-14
crore
on
its
third
day.
(We
will
update
the
offcial
number
soon).
The
film
got
majorly
trolled
by
the
netizens
and
the
critics
also
criticized
the
movie
and
called
it
a
'disaster'.
Varun:
There's
A
Commercial
Pressure
Speaking
of
Kalank,
Varun
was
recently
quoted
as
saying,
"My
last
two films had
really
small
budgets
and
the
reach
was
bigger...
There
was
no
pressure
of
them
doing
well
that
much
in
monetary
terms.
In
this
film
there
is
commercial
pressure.
This
is
a
film
for
which
I
had
prepared
a
lot
...
So
I
am
more
on
the
edge."
'Fear
Of
Failure
Makes
Me
Anxious'
"A
lot
of
eyeballs
are
there
on
this
film
because
it
is
an
ensemble
and
all
this
attention
is
making
me
anxious.
Everyone
is
going
to
watch
and
and
all
I
wanted
to
do
is
be
good
in
it.
Fear
of
failure
makes
me
anxious,"
said
Varun.
Varun
On
Prepping
For
Kalank
"For
me,
preparation
is
very
important.
But
with
this,
Abhishek
didn't
let
me
prepare
too
much.
He
doesn't
like
that.
I
am
playing
a
blacksmith
in
the
film...
So
I
knew
I
had
to
work
on
my
body...
But
when
I
came
on
the
set,
he
asked
me
to
get
the
look
in
my
eyes
which
shows
I
am
in
1940s.
He
is
a
very
fine
director,"
told
Varun
to
a
media
agency.
'Varun
Says
He
Never
Feels
Insecure'
Every
film,
Varun
said,
is
like
a
baby
and
as
an
actor,
one
feels
responsible
for
its
well-being
but
there
is
life
beyond
the
box
office.
The
actor
said
he
feels
secure
because
he
has
people
to
fall
back
upon.
