Mandar's movie review
"Sandeep aur Pinky faraar (संदीप और पिंकी फरार)"
Watched Hindi movie Sandeep aur Pinky faraar (संदीप और पिंकी फरार).
This film is directed by Dibakar Banerjee. Written by Dibakar Banerjee, Varun Grover. Produced by Dibakar Banerjee. Music by Anu Malik. Cinematography Anil Mehta. The film stars Parineeti Chopra, Arjun Kapoor, Nina Gupta, Raghubir Yadav, Jaydeep Ahalawat and Rahul Kumar. The film runs for just over 2 hours and was released in Mar 2021. I watched it on Amazon Prime with Aditi on 21st Apr 2021.
Suspended Police constable Pinky (Arjun Kapoor) is tasked to take Sandeep (Parineeti) to meet her lover and boss. A fortunate incident tells them that both were destined to be killed. They run towards Nepal.
Who is trying to kill them? Why? Can they survive? What will be the price? How will it end.
It's a movie with some difference. To start with Pinky is a male and Sandeep is a female. Why is it so? No idea. The heroine is pregnant, typically Hindi film heroines aren't. They run but are basically out of ideas except one. Generally Hindi film hero and heroines are full of ideas. Supporting characters do not have a change of heart and don't help them when everything seems lost. The film does not end with them kissing and living happily ever after. So it's not a typical Bollywood film.
Parineeti acts well. Surprisingly so does Arjun. The role of hot headed Haryanwi Jat suits him. Supporting cast of accomplished actors fulfill their responsibility.
The end however, is hastened. They run from the bad guys. Keep running for the entire film. But at the end when she succeeds, it's not shown how she succeeds and how she overcomes the pursuers. So it appears abrupt.
A one time watch.
