That was the dream. KJo would've signed many Pakistani stars if not for the current political climate.

The two might be set in pre partition but angan is more intense tv drama whereas kalank looks more comercialised with glamourous outfits and songs pictured on a grand scale KJo style! However im enjoying angan and looking forward to kalank😊

Dastaan was an epic no bollywood film can match it’s beauty. After Dastaan, Aangan is a masterpiece and template for period plays/films. Copycats from across the border cannot match it’s magnificence.
