I have already been fan of Madras Cafe (2013) and Piku (2015), which have three things in common - great actors, interesting plot and great producer director Shoojit Sirkar. I expected more from him this year and I was not disappointed.
Though, I am quite late to post this review, I had to do it. Pink is the movie that deserves accolades not only nationally but also internationally. This movie is not just a piece of art but a masterpiece uncovering the truth of Indian society and its attitude towards power, women and us taking them guilty for even their loss.
The movie stars Amitabh Bachchan, Tapsi Pannu, Kirti Kulhari, Andrea Tariang and Angad Bedi in lead roles. Tapsi and her friends who share an apartment, are framed in a criminal prosecution for ateempting to murder Angad Bedi and soliciting for prostitution.
However, reality is dark and the arguments of prosecution is even darker. The only ray of hope is defence lawyer Amitabh Bachchan.
I would suggest to watch this movie for those who haven't watched it yet. If you want to ignore hipocricy of our society then it's other thing. Otherwise, one would love to watch the real courtroom drama in this movie.
There is nothing more to say but more to watch and appreciate this.

Hello Anoop,
ReplyDeleteYou've such a wonderful perspective on life and cinema as we know it. Would you be amenable to reading and reviewing a collection of short stories? Author Sharat Kumar has a collection of short stories coming out this time in January. In each of the 13 stories, uncovers the New Age woman and the chemistry between men and women in contemporary India. Whether spinning a yarn about an Army romance, or the affection between two divorcees; Kumar holds a mirror to how sparks fly.
If you're interested, I'd love to provide a PDF of the upcoming book to be reviewed in your particular fun, free and fearless way. Just ping me back at the email address hritvick.dv(@)gmail dot com.
Cheers, and keep blogging.
