Featured reviews
When I read the reviews I thought this movie would be interesting like a typical whodunit- crosses-courtroom drama. When the credits rolled I walked away impressed.
Pink is a tour de force. It's a simmering mixture of morality, drama, mystery and debate whose intensity never slips. I can't recall one Bollywood movie in recent memory which has such taut seriousness that never flags. Pink has no light moments. And it is utterly brilliant.
Part of its brilliance lie in Pink's on-the-money portrayal of biases and confusion surrounding independent, headstrong women in modern Indian society. Shoojit Sarkar brings to light darker biases that most modern Indians - men and women - carry but won't admit to.
The narrative is his secret sauce in ensuring that none of the morality or gravitas ever slip into preachy frivolosity. It's an impactful movie on a serious issue that deserves praise for not trivializing the issues it tackles.
Amitabh Bacchhan is brilliant as always and so are the girls and all supporting actors in the way they bring believability and emotion to their non stereotypical roles.
A great watch - you'd definitely not end disappointed.

Pink is not a film and this is not a review..
A dialogue from Rang De Basanti – "Koi Bi desh perfect nevi ho ta hai..use perfect banana parta hai" – and for that one needs to change the various aspects of societal mindset. #Pink is not just a film but a statement against this prejudiced, hypocritical feudal societal fabric that can't handle modern-thinking women.
Two major point raised without being didactic:- 1.Stop being judgmental. A modern working woman who wears short (I would say more comfortable in this humid climate) clothes or one who parties & drinks or one who is friendly doesn't mean SHE IS AVAILABLE. SO STOP LABELING HER..
2.Most vital point – NO MEANS NO..She can be your friend, GF, sex-worker, even your wife : NO means No. I am sure even most educated men won't get this point but I hope they does..
Honestly Shoojit Sircar (who is synonymous with quality films Vicky Donor Madras Cafe Piku) & debutante Dir Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury should be applauded for The Film Pink as it has the power to change mindset. Hope Pink is watched at a large scale, start a debate and inspire young adults. Going by the reactions all over I guess the movement has just began, that is Power of Great Cinema.
Kudos to Amitabh Bachchan to be part of such a topical film demanding respect.His acting and choice of films are getting better and better with old-age..This issue was necessary to be told and his name would increase the audience base. Tapsee Pannu and Kirti Kulhari are a revelation. Their pain reflects the voice of majority of Indian women who have to face ordeals even in the busiest of streets in our country. Angad Bedi is so authentic that you will hate him. Debutante Andrea Tariang is effortless. And can Piyush Mishra & Dhritiman Chatterjee go wrong in any role? Pink is indeed a taut social thriller which needs your attention.It is taut and gritty and it establishes its plot-points effectively keeping the tension intact. And while doing so it makes evident points against the society. The court-room sequences in the 2nd half is tremendously superb. As a cinema it is Talvar of 2016 albeit with a straight plot-line.
Btw, Do watch the end credit..

The best thing about this movie is that it is too real. It doesn't matter if you are a conservative or a liberal or a feminist, if you are human, you will like this. The social issues raised by this movie is on point and at the same time it is an entertaining watch. Movies like this shows the strength of Indian cinema to produce amazing films despite the extreme commercialization.
Aniruddha roy chaudhary as the director have done a stupendous job. The first half of the movie has barely any dialogues and still the story is conveyed in a astounding and suspenseful way. The second half mainly focus on courtroom and I have not seen such intense court battle in a long time.
Amitabh's acting is fantastic. Piyush Mishra is marvelous as always. The acting by the three girls is real and believable.
Writing and dialogues by talented Ritesh Shah is one of the best I have seen.
"Pink" is intense, entertaining and honest. The issues raised by it really needs to be thought upon. It is a must watch for everyone.

More than half of the seats empty in the theater at an afternoon show of "Pink" gives us the message whats exactly wrong with Bollywood. Replacing the movie with Dabangg or other such worthless crap, shows would be house-full. Pink is a masterpiece and lives up to it's expectations. Powerful and world-class performances given by Amitabh Bachchan sir (once again) and Piyush Mishra makes this movie a gem. This is one of the career best performance by Big B. He runs the whole show. Tapsee's acting could have been so much better; but still, it was a job well done.
The movie deals with what we read daily in our newspapers. MOLESTATION. This movie depicts the corrupt system and shows it in a brutally honest way (personal experience).
I'd say go for this movie, you'll surely love it. Fans of Amitabh will get =a bombastic surprise! ;)

Just seen PINK the movie and I would like admit that nothing has moved me so much as this movie did. Superb Acting by Tapsee Pannu She is probably the best we got in bollywood, Amitabh Bacchan did a very intense and powerful character and uplifted the role in his own charisma, His acting skills shows the reason why he is the biggest bollywood star ever. Director precisely enlights the deep rooted problems and harassments faced by women specially in metros and the immaturity of the society who blindly judge a woman's character by the way she dresses, talk or work. We badly needs these kind of movies to awake the generic thoughts of people who thinks that they can Objectify women and Misuse the power against them. I recommend all of you to watch this great movie. It's a Thought Provoking and a giant leap in movies what we usually watch in bollywood.
Did you know
- TriviaAmitabh Bachchan suggested that his name should be in the credits after the 3 leading ladies in order to show the importance of gender equality, which is what the movie is based on. As a result, in the introductory and end credits, the three lead actresses lead the credits before Amitabh Bachchan. Generally, due to the veteran actor's seniority, it would have been him leading the credits.
- GoofsWhen Tapsee Pannu goes to jog in the park for the first time she had earbuds in both her ears and she stops for stretching when we see her from Amitabh Bachchan's POV she had earbud only in her left ear but when we see Amitabh Bachchan in the same shot in Objective Shot with Tapsee Pannu in Foreground she had earbuds in both her ears.
