Karwaan trailer: Irrfan Khan's humour stands out in hilarious first clip from Dulquer Salmaan, Mithila Palkar-starrer

The official trailer for Karwaan has been released, and it looks like a morbid, slice-of-life film filled with humourous moments. The trailer starts with Dulquer Salman’s character Avinash receiving the sad news of his father’s death from an uncaring telephone operator. On finding out that the dead body sent to him is of a woman, Avinash sets out on a road-trip to Kochi to retrieve his father’s dead body. He is accompanied by Irrfan Khan’s character Shaukat—a morose, unintentionally funny and confrontational individual. They are joined by a college student, played by Mithila Palkar, and the three soon discover how similar they actually are. _Also read: Mithila Palkar on working with Irrfan Khan in Karwaan: He taught me how to be present in a scene_ Karwaan is Dulquer Salman’s Bollywood debut as well as Mithila Palkar’s first major big screen appearance. The film has been directed by debutant Akarsh Khurana and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, and has been shot in and around Kerala.
