PINK is what everyone needs to watch and understand today. Not just India, the world needs to stop stereotyping and objectifying women.

The movie starts off with three girls, scared and terrified by the incident that was about to change their lives. What happens next are the instances that take place everyday in our country with working women, college going girls, models and almost every urban girl. In a country where political influence can buy anyone, a women is treated as an object. They are judged by what they wear, whom they hang out with and where they work.

The movie is backed by some powerful performances. Taapsee shines as Minal, she is brilliant as a modern, independent and brave woman who isn't shy from admitting publicly that she isn't a virgin. She puts up a brave act. Her friends played by Kirti Kulhari and Andrea Taring support her well and together they all are great. One cannot not praise Mr.Bachchan. He plays every character with finesse and this isn't an exception. His character raises several questions that we as a society should think on. Although initially I kind of hated him in the movie but as the movie goes on you realize how aptly his character was written. Everyone else (Angad Bedi, Piyush Mishra etc) does justice to their role.

Director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury does full justice to the story. He puts up a great show and gives us a reality check of our hypocritical society where women are judged every now and then. The background score is decent. Although the songs aren't great, they suit the story and go with the flow. The dialogues are great and the screenplay is brilliant. What I liked most about this movie is that it is relatable, it is what many women face today. There's nothing new about this movie because this is reality and everyone of us knows it but this has to be presented to change people's mind. And it is undoubtedly presented very well. I hope people watch this movie and realize that its time to change our society.
