Pink is movie about the hypocrisy of our society towards the women and girls. It attempts to bring out how we are the ones who are making it difficult for the women in our society to lead normal lives.
Pink tells the story of three working girls, one of whom is charged with attempt to murder a guy and the movie is about whether they are able to prove their innocence. Pink is brilliant in the way it captures what many Indian women go through in their daily lives. The scenes are so effective that you feel scared with the characters. The characters of the three ladies have been showcased so well that you feel empathy for them. This movie deserves a thumbs up for bringing out a social issue in a very commercial way and succeeding at it. The movies first half is very brisk where it tells the story of how the girls are strong and stand against the boys and at the same time are very vulnerable. The second half with all the courtroom scenes are also very well directed. The dialogues in the courtroom scenes should be lauded as without them the scenes would have felt blank. This movie does well in almost all the departments and thus can be called a brilliant movie.
The three girls Taapsee Pannu, Kirti Kulhari and Andrea Tariang have acted very well in bringing out the vulnerabilities of the modern women. Amitabh Bacchan as the lawyer is also very good and has carried out his role without much of the drama that he is usually known for. Full marks to him for being able to do this at this age. Piyush Mishra as the prosecutor is also very good. With his acting he is able to repel all the viewers away from him and towards the defandant side. Full marks again to one more actor of this movie. Thus acting wise, this is a gold mine.
The director, Aniruddha Roy Chowdhuri, has directed several Bengali movies in the past. This is his first attempt at a Hindi movie. And I must say if his Bengali movies are anything like this, then I must watch all his movies. He had done fabulously well at directing this movie. Even though the movie moves quietly, it stirs you a lot inside. A thumbs up to the director too.
Overall this is movie for one and all as it not only talks about the girls in the movie, but about girls in general and what are the problems and the stereotypes that they face. Watch this movie for its all the good things that I have already said.
Rating - 4 / 5
