PINK

Pink has always been associated with the fairer sex. Isn't that a stereotypical notion? Rightly, perfectly named 'Pink', this film is undoubtedly one of Bollywood's best outcomes, a great achievement that will be remembered for ages from now.

Pink is more than just a film; it is the true facet of today's Indian society, and maybe the same or worse for many other countries around the world.

I will not talk about a single scene enacted in this movie. Yes, no spoilers for those who haven't watched it yet. But trust me when I say this: this piece of reality-turned-movie is a masterpiece. Be it the dramatic storyline weaved intensely, or be it the amazing performance by the veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan; be it Taapsee Pannu and her two friends' heart-touching deliverance of voice and acting skills, or be it the director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's sheer dedication in making this movie, everything will strike a chord in your heart.

Pink makes us think about the feudal mindset people are still harboring within them. Pink makes us realize the consequences of remaining silent and in turn, empowers the woman in us. Pink gives us the courage to face the judgmental world and Pink teaches us to face even the worst of the circumstances bravely.

All the actors have done justice to their characters and strongly enacted scenes display the strength they had to gather to enact them out. Last but not the least, the concluding poem recited by Amitabh Bachchan gets you goosebumps and if you are a woman, you will surely walk out of the theater as a more empowered being.

Note: 'No' means 'No'. 'No' is a word that does not need further explanation. Learn to step back when you are denied of anything.
This is a subtle hint about what the movie revolves around and to better understand it, watch 'PINK'.
