Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
