Director's Desk

Significantly confined into very small premises is the only problem about PINK. Coaching the most recent issues in an almost direct way which are precisely loud, touches the feminine clusters sharply with the tight storytelling. Pink is dark in making and possibly enhances the characteristic of prevailing views towards females in a subtle form. Here I believe that Mr. Director Anirudha Roy Chowdhury dealt a much wider problem quite narrowly, everything from the dark corner, side by side shot, mostly focuses the monotonous subject line to the similar emotional quotes.

Although these are the area in my opinion goes little far from what has been told till now. This is the story about three independent working girl Minal (Tapsee Pannu), Falak Ali (Kirti Kulhari) and Andria who are circumstantially involve into attempt to murder charge where they are supposed to be the culprit of charging the guy. All the characters smartly placed their sufferings, trauma sometimes makes you very suffocative yes this is the strength of this film this takes you in the helpless world of females where some are distinctive but their voices are limited. The grumblings are visible through out the movie which pushes us into the realm of orthodox mentality but Pink also shows that everyone is not anti-women some are supporting the new era of women liberation, do be so cautious about this liberation because maximum number of women are living in the shadow of somebody like slaves, actually their life is  more fricative than Dalits, in our eyes their interactive accessibility to the world is called freedom for them but it’s again a feudal mentality which dominates our senses in wrong direction. I think first half is very slow only just to create the thrill Mr. Director stretches more than what the story demands. When movie starts with the running titles over black screen without any music I thought some hard events are going to come but eventually it didn’t, even audience holds their breath for long to know that what had happened to the girls? 

I love this film not because it touches some real issues nor for its storyline but due to performances, especially none other than Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, with his strong stony eyes just can’t let you figure out what is running into his mind, I like the performances of all the girls but when Tapsee gets abducted and molested that too in the running van it simply stuns you but film leaves you there after showing some after effect! In court room scenes as well argument is confined basically on the earlier issues.

There are flaws but Ritesh shah’s story has some genuine questions which shakes you yet if he could have managed to establish some more plots this would have been more promising.

BATHROOM VERDICT: PRE INTERVAL

#Pink fails to hold the audience… it is very slow and repetitive. But Yes this is not a full fledge Salman Type Paisa V asool film.
