Pink: Amitabh elevates powerful message-based film

Pink Review: You cannot afford to miss Amitabh

At last there is a good film on the box office. Pink will end the dull phase on the box office which has been going on since a few weeks now. Pink is a must-watch with very strong story line and cast. Amitabh Bachchan is real lucky who is still being offered roles which suit his caliber and age. Bollywood otherwise plays safe. The best thing about Pink is that it is very contemporary and the youth of today will relate with it well. "Pink" is a contemporary youth-centric film with a strong socially relevant message about the choices young women of today make and about respecting those. Narrated in a linear manner, the simplistically presented film, essentially a courtroom drama, is powerful, owing to its missive, dialogues and performances. Three young working women, Minal (Tapasee Pannu), Falak (Kirti Kulhari) and Andrea (Andrea Tairang) are flatmates in Delhi and good friends. An untoward incident one night at a resort in Surajkund, involving some boys, among whom is Rajveer (Angad Bedi), who comes from a politically well-connected family, proves to be life changing for the trio. What follows is an intriguing courtroom drama where ace lawyer Deepak Sehgall represents them in a bid to get them justice.
