Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar

Good movie to watch after a long time period the acting from both characters is best the movie is well shot the music is fabulous.

This is basically one of the best work of Parineeti and I am glad that I can now call arjun Kapoor an actor , not the best movie of Dibakar Banerjee but it is good . And if we can appreciate the direction you will see very subtle way of telling how our society works . A good movie and a good plot

Dibakar Banerjee is a director I admire a lot. He's made Bollywood films that are out of the ordinary and it's sad that he doesn't get enough appreciation for his work. His latest, Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar is a prime example of that.

Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar follows Sandeep, a successful banker, and Pinky, a suspended cop, as they abscond after being marked for a kill.

I was excited for this film for many years but the constant delays and lack of updates got me worried. It seemed like YRF completely forgot about this film and released it during the worst possible time with little to no promotion. I also remember the onslaught of hatred towards the film just because of the two lead actors. However, this is a film I think people should give a chance and hopefully it gains more popularity in due time.

From the opening scene alone, Dibakar Banerjee shows his strengths as director with a beautifully executed one take sequence that lets us in on the film's themes and intrigues us with its lack of context. From then on, we get an interesting study into gender and in particular, masculinity. This is evidently show by the choice to switch the names Sandeep and Pinky with its opposing gender. We learn the mindset of several characters and what they believe men or women can do. Dibakar Banerjee and Varun Grover take us through certain stereotypes both genders have and how Sandeep and Pinky are an exception. Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor are two performers that haven't shown their true skills as actors but Banerjee brings out so much from both of them that they actually turn in their best performances possibly. This clearly shows how an actor can act to the best of their ability with the right director and script. Raghubir Yadav, Neena Gupta and Jaideep Ahlawat are also great in their roles. I do wish the pacing was faster since the film moves relatively slow.

It's unfortunate how poorly marketed Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar was. Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor put forth some of their best work here and Dibakar Banerjee conveys to us how talented of a director he is once again. Films like these need to be supported and I hope more people discover it and give it a watch.

You know something is very wrong right from the brilliant opening montage of Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar (Sandeep and Pinky On the Run), a story about two chance expendables running for their life. The brilliance lies in the writing here which gives you enough to stay invested and rooting for the characters, each of who are played by talented actors. It's a slow burn but it never crescendoes into what you would expect (adding to the fun), but Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor put up a show that can very well be termed a holy homecoming. Watch it.

I rarely review films but after reading all the hate boxes for reviews around here, I just had to write this. It is actually a nice film and a total justice for my money. Films are all about love and inclusiveness of all, and should not be judged by the background of the people working in it. Do watch the film if you can and maybe even write a review of the same about how you like or dislike it.
