Karan Johar, whose recent family venture "Kapoor and Sons" proved a major box office hit, says R. Balki's yet to be released "Ki and Ka" tells a very "unusual story".

"The film is really amazing. The concept is new and fresh. It is a very unusual story and I think Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor have performed beautifully and did justice to their roles," said Karan Johar at the special screening of "Ki and Ka".

"R. Balki's writing was entertaining. His shooting style is also exceptional. Fast paced, energetic and really unusual concept oriented film. I'd suggest that everyone should watch the film, it was really inspiring."

Arjun Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Akshara Haasan, Sarika, Swara Bhaskar and many more noted celebrities turned up for the special screening and gave it a thumbs-up generally.

"A living breathing example of what a good commercial cinema should be. 'Ki and Ka" is an exemplary film," said versatile actor Paresh Rawal.

"Ki And Ka" is an upcoming romantic comedy-family drama written, directed, and produced by R. Balki. The film follows a young, married couple whose relationship challenges the gender roles placed upon women and men in the Indian society.

The movie also stars Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan in special extended cameo. The film will be released on April 1, 2016, by Eros International.
