Pink Movie Review

It is a story of 3 young professional girls Falak (Kirti Kulhari), Andrea (Andrea Tariang) and Minal (Tapsee Pannu) who are staying together as tenants in a locality of South Delhi. They are in state of shock after an incident that happened on the night of rock concert. On the night they are invited by Rajveer (Angad Bedi), the son of a powerful politician, to a resort in Surajkund after the rock concert. Rajveer knows Meenal through a friend who is her classmate. Rajveer tries to molest Meenal, and Meenal in order to protect herself smashes a bottle on Rajveer's eye which leaves him bleeding. In order to avenge this attack, Rajveer and his friends pressurise the girls and threaten them to vacate the house and leave. Minal is then forced to file an FIR against Rajveer. Upon knowing this Rajveer also files a false FIR against the girls labelling them as prostitutes. Minal is then arrested for charges of Attempt to Murder case of Rajveer. Deepak Sehgal (Amitabh Bachchan) is a retired lawyer who is suffering from an illness and also has an ailing wife. He is neighbour of these 3 girls. The circumstances surrounding the case and consultation with his ailing wife persuade him to represent Minal as defence in her case. The film then shows as to how Deepak fights the case and eventually wins to prove the girls innocent. 

This story is a take on today's society who have a dubious thinking towards women as they are considered to be inferior to men. The message has been very well conveyed on this burning issue. The movie also communicates to you about different legal remedies available like a zero FIR which is very important in today's world and a bail procedure for women. 

Of the performances Amitabh Bachchan does a great job as a lawyer defending the case, followed by Dhritiman Chatterjee the judge and Piyush Mishra as the prosecution lawyer. The 3 girls Tapsee, Andrea and Kirti have also acted well especially Kirti. Angad Bedi is menacing as Rajveer and does a good job. 

The music of the movie is also good. 

Kudos to the director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhary in her debut film, who has previously won national awards. 

Overall the movie is a must watch for all age groups. Absolutely recommended👍👍👍
