After we saw an interesting first look of Karan Johar's upcoming film Kalank yesterday, there's a bigger treat for fans today as we get to see the first look of Varun Dhawan. The actor has been introduced to us Zafar. Starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt in the lead roles, the film is essentially a family drama which is set in 40s. In his first look, Varun Dhawan is seen sporting kohl eyes and is also seen with an ear piercing.

The first look poster is covered in hues of red and the actor is seen giving an intense look. Sharing the first look on Twitter, director Karan Johar wrote, "Presenting @Varun_dvn as Zafar! He flirts with life and danger! #MenOfKalank #Kalank."Kalank First Look Out! Get Ready to Witness the Magic of the '40s in Karan Johar's Dream Project. 

Take a look at Karan Johar's tweet here:

Well, we certainly agree with Karan's description of the character considering we get that rustic vibe of him enjoying the thrill of danger in the first look itself. While the first look picture shared yesterday looked like a beautiful vintage shot with what looked like actress Alia Bhatt sitting back facing, there's not much we can say with this first look regarding the era that the film is set in. Madhuri Dixit Hopes to Make Sridevi ‘Proud’ with Her Performance in Kalank.

Sharing the picture on his Twitter account, Varun also expressed his happiness saying, "It’s been a hell of a journey playing this gem of a character. So guys, meet Zafar!"

Here's Varun Dhawan's tweet:

The period drama is all set to release in April 2019 and we believe the excitement has just begun. Given that it is a multi-starrer, there are several more first look posters to be released and we can't wait to see them.
