Ever since the shocking trailer of Shoojit Sircar's PINK broke out, people have been sparking conversations and debates across the country, mainly on Amitabh Bachchan's explosively provocative dialogues. Also Taapsee Pannu's never-seen-before avatar along with her friends submerged in mysterious circumstances and various thrill elements has deepened the curiosity.

Well so powerful and emotional was the climax scene and dialogues spearheaded by the magnificent Mr Bachchan, that we hear the three girls, specially Kirti Kulhari broke down in tears on the final day of shoot!!

In these exclusive images we see Kirti and her co stars Taapsee Pannu and Andrea Tariang becoming emotional and teary eyed, with none other than Mr B consoling them on the last day of shoot.

Well if the actors themselves are so overwhelmed by the scenes, looks like PINK is certainly a stirring film to watch out for!

When we launched it in January 2015, we were determined to tap into the talent that exists in Asia’s largest slum and provide them with a platform to showcase the same to the outside world.  Along with our partners Qyuki we put a plan in place to go about this process. Setting up the music and dance school at Dharavi made us proud and what followed were visits by our friends in the business - singers, musicians, choreographers and producers to identify and mentor young talent. The release of “Saamne Yah Kaun Aaya” is the result of the hard work put in by all involved to make this CSR project count!  We will continue to work this project and hopefully make a difference in the lives of many more such talented individuals living in Dharavi.”
