The trailer of Karwaan was released on Wednesday and it seems to be a promising comedy.
The trailer opens with Avinash (played by Dulquer) receiving a news about his father’s death and the way that the telephone operator tells him about it hints that the death is not going to be taken seriously.
A mix up of dead bodies takes Dulquer on a road trip with his best buddy Shaukat (played by Irrfan). On their way to Kochi, Avinash receives a call from a mother about her missing daughter and wants him to help her. The missing girl Tanya (played by Mithila) has to be picked up by them from Ooty and that is where their journey begins.
Dulquer Salmaan, who is making his debut in Hindi cinema with the film, and Mithila are spot on in their performance. However, Irrfan too is at the top of his game. His witty humour in this unusual film about death gives it an interesting twist. Irrfan being addressed as a driver or the situation in which he might get more than just a “thappad” leave us smiling. There are no gloomy pictures of death, only the beautiful landscapes of Kochi and a bright yellow Nano.
A while ago Irrfan tweeted, “Beginnings have the innocence that experience can’t buy. My best wishes to @dulQuer, @mipalkar for joining the Karwaan. ‘Two karwaans’ … Mine and the movie !! @MrAkvarious @RSVPMovies @RonnieScrewvala”, with the poster of the movie.
Karwaan has been produced by Ronnie Screwvala under the banner of RSVP films. It is the debut of director Akarsh Khurana and is all set to release on August 3, 2018.
