Pink is not a documentary but we are not spoon feeding either, voices Taapsee Pannu!

After Baby, now film Pink, next year it would be Naam Shabana and in the middle of this all, there would be at least three more movies that Taapsee Pannu would be seen in. For someone who has been termed gifted actor ever since she made her big screen debut down South, this young Punjabi woman has been making her presence felt in the industry.

In fact when it comes to Pink, time and again movies belonging to this genre carry a pre-notion of being grim, niche, dark or serious. How has it been guaranteed by producer Shoojit Sircar, director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and the team of actors (Kirti Kulhari, Andrea Tariang) to make the narrative entertaining enough as well, so as to reach out to a larger section of audience?

"The inherent intensity and energy of the script," promptly comes the reaction from Taapsee, "I have definitely used that energy and vent it all out. We had that thing in mind to reach out to a good section of audience and hence narrated the film as a thriller. Pink is not a documentary. We are not telling you what to do and what not to do. We are not telling who is right and who is not. We are showing what has happened to the characters in the story and it is up to you as an audience to take back home what suits your judgment and mental stance."

The movie deals with a sensitive subject of molestation. A subject like this can't be expected to be entertaining per se in true terms.

"Well, it all boils down to what entertainment means to you," comments Taapsee, "For some, reality is entertainment. Pink is one such reality. Moreover, we are not spoon feeding the audience either. You have to catch every moment to know what is happening. It is not a kind of movie where the first frame itself gives out what has actually happened. You have to wait till the end to know about it. We are not preaching anything to anyone, we are only projecting reality."
