The 2-minute 22-second clip starts with a man decked up in a suit talking to a doctor. He has never smoked, consumed alcohol or tried drugs and yet has been diagnosed with stomach cancer. Left with just some time to live, the doctor kindly suggests him, "Whatever makes you happy, do it." And that's exactly how the roller-coaster ride of Saif Ali Khan's character in 'Kaalankaandi' begins.

One look at the video and you just know that this is the Saif Ali Khan we have been dying to watch. The trailer of the film is finally out and it can be called anything but conventional. This thriller-dark comedy, which has been directed by Akshat Verma who also wrote 'Delhi Belly', already looks like an intriguing watch.

The crux of the story forms after Khan is informed about his cancer. You see a suited-booted man turned into an entirely different person. 'Kaalakaandi' is about life, murder, lust, gunshots, passionate kisses, karma and everything in between.

The film takes you through the journey of six characters on one monsoon night in Mumbai. Plus Saif's yellow fur, weird hairdo is enough to get you down with a hard case of the giggles. And a special mention to the awesome score that just perfectly adds up to all that's happening in the trailer.

All set to hit the screen on 12th January 2018, the film also features Vijay Raaz, Deepak Dobriyal, Vijay Raaz and Deepak Dobriyal Sobhita Dhulipala, Akshay Oberoi and Isha Talwar in vital roles.
