how pink is really pink?? -Review by Devsheel Gaurav

Well let me assured you that it is really vogue to write a review after a great delay of time. In fact it's like writing a burial post for gone by things. Yet if you are reading it, rest assured that though the dish is stale yet the garnishing is fresh. Off late when I saw the movie, it was more of public opinion than self made decision. But believe me I am not those pals who like flicks out of hearsay but critically examin e it through. Pink as the normal heuristics suggests, is not a girlie movie.
