Pink(2016) is a kind of movie that happens once in a while.
The movie voices the problems and concerns of independent working women. The
movie is an eye opener for the typical mindset of our society that asks women
to be restricted in every possible way rather than teaching it's men to behave
themselves. Our society goes by a simple rule- if you are a women, behave in a
way which seems appropriate to men and still be their victims. Whereas men are
free to do what they want, what they like and still intruding in women's life
because they are not happy with theirs. The movie clearly brings out the facts
that why as parents to a girl child people often hesitate or think quite a
number of times for letting their girl have the freedom that their boys enjoy.
If we are perfectly fine with men staying alone and working why is it so
difficult for the society to accept a woman doing the same. If by chance and
choice a woman chooses to be different she is labelled as someone inappropriate
in code and conducts. The movie also beautifully demonstrates the double
standards that the society has in dealing with a man and a woman. Why do women
have a specific code of conduct while men can live the way they want without
being judged and misinterpreted? Why a woman's NO and CONSENT is not taken into
consideration? Why can't men take NO for an answer from women without being
violent against them? Despite several hue and cry about equality, when are we
actually going to treat men and women alike in every possible way? When are we going
to understand a woman's identity as an individual and a human being rather than
considering them as a mere object of sexual pleasure? In answer to these
questions lies the answer to the cause and control of increasing number of acid
attacks, rape, domestic violence and several other crimes against women. A must
must must watch..
