Pink

Just seen PINK the movie and I would like admit that nothing has moved me so much as this movie did. Superb Acting by Tapsee Pannu She is probably the best we got in bollywood, Amitabh Bacchan did a very intense and powerful character and uplifted the role in his own charisma, His acting skills shows the reason why he is the biggest bollywood star ever. Director precisely enlights the deep rooted problems and harassments faced by women specially in metros and the immaturity of the society who blindly judge a woman's character by the way she dresses, talk or work. We badly needs these kind of movies to awake the generic thoughts of people who thinks that they can Objectify women and Misuse the power against them. I recommend all of you to watch this great movie. It's a Thought Provoking and a giant leap in movies what we usually watch in bollywood.

More than half of the seats empty in the theater at an afternoon show of "Pink" gives us the message whats exactly wrong with Bollywood. Replacing the movie with Dabangg or other such worthless crap, shows would be house-full. Pink is a masterpiece and lives up to it's expectations. Powerful and world-class performances given by Amitabh Bachchan sir (once again) and Piyush Mishra makes this movie a gem. This is one of the career best performance by Big B. He runs the whole show. Tapsee's acting could have been so much better; but still, it was a job well done.

The movie deals with what we read daily in our newspapers. MOLESTATION. This movie depicts the corrupt system and shows it in a brutally honest way (personal experience).

I'd say go for this movie, you'll surely love it. Fans of Amitabh will get =a bombastic surprise! ;)

Often times, those who are nominated to positions of power and influence, bear a false sense of privilege that is misused and goes unchecked. In a city that is known exactly for a large number of such men, women tend to become the victims of misogyny and indignity. 'Pink' is a reflection of this deeply flawed society that even in today's times, instinctively falls back on stereotyping that is baseless. Director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's social drama truly becomes a thriller of sorts in its second half when the trial exposes not just the victims and perpetrators but also the society which plays a huge role in determining who the guilty are.

When a casual night out after a rock concert ends up with a bottle smashed into the face of a minister's nephew, the girls who were simply defending themselves from physical molesters have drawn curtains on a wild party life. Constantly in a state of nervous silence and anxious worry, their daily routines soon get affected by threats from the men who seek vengeance for the grave injury to their beloved friend. Minal Arora (Tapsee Pannu), in an impulsive act of rage and self-defense, smashed a bottle onto Rajveer Singh (Angad Bedi) who crossed the lines of decency when they were at a party. Unfortunately for Minal and her friends, Falak (Kirti Kulhari) and Andrea (Andrea Tariang), Rajveer happens to be the nephew of a powerful South Delhi politician. A series of harassment attempts affect their landlord, their workplace and even their casual coffee outings. Thus, even the FIR complaint against the harassment by Rajveer and his accomplices falls on deaf ears at the Police station and soon enough, a counter complaint gets Minal arrested for attempted murder.

These proceedings are keenly observed by one of the neighbors where the girls live and seeing the injustice, offers to take their case even though he had retired as a renowned lawyer due to his mental illness. Deepak Sehgal (Amitabh Bachchan) maybe old and weak but he knows the law better than most and with his more measured approach, he combats Prashant Mehra (Piyush Mishra), the prosecutor whose loud and boisterous accusations reflect the society's flawed mentality and baseless stereotyping. Mehra represents the bigotry of the orthodox Indian society that downplays the role of women and their rightful positions while questioning every action with a perverse and sick assumption. His loud and overpowering arguments are the embarrassing reality of the way many men think of women even in these times in an evolving society. In stark contrast, Deepak Sehgal tries to evaluate how low the society has fallen to mistreat and misjudge 3 innocent women who were victims of the power-hungry perpetrators. Can he help deliver unbiased justice to the girls while challenging the irregularities of society's stigma and prejudices? Pink hits the value system hard and the director keeps the viewer engaged with twists and revelations that keep the verdict hanging till the very end.

Tapsee Pannu and Kirti Kulhari deliver riveting performances as they struggle through their altered realities. Tapsee mumbles her responses as a witness in the box but she portrays her shaken self quite convincingly. Falak is targeted by Mehra's accusations of prostitution and eventually, deviates from the planned defensive lines. Kirti's performance here is gut wrenching and her plight is understandable. Prashant Mehra's aggressive prosecution allows Piyush Mishra to thrive on his excellent dialogue delivery. He matches up to Amitabh Bachchan's commanding presence with his performance, thus charging the scene up for audiences to enjoy. As an aging Deepak Sehgal, Bachchan's portrayal of an acclaimed lawyer is powerful not only with his sheer presence and calculated dialogue delivery, but also the conviction with which he fervently supports the girls. The closing statement by Amitabh Bachchan is among his finest performances in recent times that also highlights the film's underlying theme. It's effect is moving and necessary to shake up the hypocrisy in a flawed society. However, while Mr. Sehgal's decision to fight for the girls comes as celebratory news in the plot line, there's hardly any communication among them in preparation for each hearing. That's precisely where we would've had a better understanding of why they behaved as they did in court. It still provides for riveting courtroom drama but for the kind of overall realism depicted by Chowdhury, this seems like a fundamental interaction that's almost omitted.

Director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury keeps the accusations louder than the defense and with good reason. The hypocrisy and outdated mentality resonate through the general population and in some cases, out of guilt of being a part of it. Pink is a very important film for today's times and as an influence for the future generations. It depicts the darker reality that we live with but choose to ignore it as it may not affect us directly. It demands a change in the way we think of women, a basic change in mentality that is needed to raise society as a whole and treat each other with respect and draw strict lines when it comes to individuality.

Yes, its finally here.The movie i was waiting for so long. first of all,i will like to finally say this thing that after a long leap of time i felt goosebumps watching a Bollywood film.Last time was for "Titli". And it was an Honour to see Mr.Bachchan in such a terrific role. every one was just phenomenal. Piyush Mishra did a good job as well. and those three girls Of course,what a great privilege for them to share screen with the Shehanshah himself.:) The movie will be having a good grip on you through out the Runtime The movie is not "Damini" of modern age. This is a tight slap on all those so called "Sanskari uncles and aunties" that judge girls by what they wear. Every person not just a male,but this is was for every gender. It asks just a single question to the society i.e "WHY" why don't you just let girls do whatever they want to do. At least let them smile or laugh for god sake. please don't just wait for someone to point out some faults in your daughter,sister or mother. If you can worship "female gods" then for god sake just respect the ones you have in your society.

Shoojit and Aniruddha has delivered powerful punch on feudal mindset with engaging court room drama.Frame by frame excellence will bound you with your seat. Even you will not realize when movie reached to interval.Big B has refined himself as USP of movie. Taapsee has delivered stunning performance with fearsome dialogue delivery. Piyush Mishra was another performer. Kirti Kulhari,Andrea Tariang and Angad Bedi were good in supporting role. Script and dialogue were terrific and value addition to movie. Music is only section which need improvement. Although Kaari Kaari was delight to listen. Please stay in theater till the end credits for complete story. Let's paint it PINK. She said 'No' and 'No' means 'No'... based on this simple one word, director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury raised some very relevant questions to our so called society through his exclusive film #PINK#. A gripping story, tight screenplay, sharp direction, excellent background score, perfect cinematography & brilliantly executed Court room Trials enriched PINK and make it more vibrant. The performances are pitch-perfect with Mr. Bachchan leading the way. He is Outstanding once again. Tapasee & Kirti Kulhari delivered power- packed performances. Angan Bedi is another one to watch out for those cold & brutal eyes. Gutsy congratulations to Soojit Sircar for making a contemporary youth-centric film with a strong socially relevant message. A Film That Everyone Needs to Watch. Make time for it.
