Team ‘Pink’ Goes National!

It was a moment of pride and happiness when the worldwide loved film;’Pink’ had a special screening for none other than the Honourable President of India, Mr.Pranab Mukherji. Amitabh Bachchan had earlier mentioned in his blog that the team including Taapsee Pannu, Andrea Tariang, director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and producer Shoojit Sircar was invited for the special screening of the film followed by a lavish dinner with the President himself.

Big B took it to social media to express his happiness and excitement post dinner. In his post, he said, “T 2445 – The President of India Hon. Shri Pranab Mukherji saw our film PINK and then called us over for Dinner at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.” He further added, “T 2445 – A most rewarding evening with the President of India, as he watches PINK and then invites us for dinner .. his appreciation was ?.”

Have a look at these amazing pictures of the event that took place at the Rashtrapathi Bhavan in Delhi:

 

 

 

Taapsee had the most amazing reaction post dinner with the President which we feel is how most of us would have reacted. This is what she had to say:

Taapsee was absolutely excited and so enthusiastic about the entire event. She said, “It was a memorable experience and we received such a warm welcome into the residence of none other than the President of the country. It was like walking into the largest palace in the world. Soon after the screening got over, we were felicitated by the President and later, he joined us for dinner too.”

“An over-enthusiastic kid was jumping inside me thinking how unreal it is to have dinner sitting right next to the President. Even though he was very sweet, warm and interactive, I was very cautious that I shouldn’t violate any protocol. It was a beautiful evening well spent with dignitaries, especially the Honourable President,” she concluded.

On asking how the President liked the movie, Taapsee told the media, “He conveyed that he was really impressed with the message we conveyed through the film and how we presented the entire issue.”
