After the disappointment of Kalank, Karan opened up about it in an interview with DNA. He expressed, "There was not a single point after Kalank when I had a breakdown, meltdown or low moment. I was like, we have to take this positively and have to emerge on top from this. I have a strong and talented team and lots of internal love."
The Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani helmer praised every cast member of Kalank and director Abhishek Varman. He likened them to soldiers who fought till the end. Despite moments of despair, they gleaned valuable lessons from the experience, and Karan admired their spirit.
He also said that the film held a special place in his heart, and perhaps that's why he couldn't maintain objectivity. He refuses to view it as a failure; instead, he sees it as a success because it taught him invaluable lessons on avoiding similar setbacks in the future.
