Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar

Coming from a capable director like Dibakar Banerjee and an equally talented writer like Varun Grover, I had fairly high expectations from this film. Let me tell you that I was not disappointed at all. The story is fresh, the performances are grounded and real, the cinematography is brilliant. The only flaw that I could find was with the pacing. It could've been 15-20 minutes shorter. But that pales in comparison to the good aspects of the film. So, watch this film while its still in theatres because it deserves your time and money. If you're worried about the other reviews calling the two leads' performances underwhelming or expressionless, just know that they have been spoiled by years of watching stars overact on screen. This film is as real as it gets.

Review By Kamal K

Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar is a slow burner & grow on you with time! By the time film reached to climax, you are completely in awe of Dibakar Banerjee's world. It's totally unpredictable from start to finish. Yes! There are issues with pacing, and I felt like a lot was let unexplained or untied, but great performances specially by Raghuvir Yadav, as a typical conservative uncle with a liking for surgical strike makes it a worth watch. Also the inversion of gender dynamics works really well, and even though maybe they could have casted better actors I think both Arjun and Parineeti delivered their career best performances in this film. Thanks to Dibakar Banerjee for bringing out the actors in both of them. And BTW, the 'Faraar' track sung by Anu Malik is a Banger.

Overall, This Film is Definitely a good One-Time Watch.

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.

Varun grover and Banerjee have come up with totally fresh story! The screenplay of the movie does not let you know everything at once. The way the story reveals itself , bit by bit ,holds the audience attention. As usual jaideep ahlawat, neena gupta, and raghubhir they never disappointment.

About arjun and parineeti, whenever they came on screen, I wished "don't ruin this pls"... And they didn't, surprisingly I think it's their best performance till date Overall it's a good 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.
