From small-budget gems to big Bollywood blockbusters, some of the best films in the recent years hit the theatres in 2016. It was a year that saw a transition of sorts with the cinephiles accepting genuine performances than just make-believe. Despite a few dreadful misfires, viewers found Bollywood films/performances spanning across crucial issues – drug abuse, mental illness, distorted gender expectations, a dysfunctional family, etc - that were worth bringing to the fore.
In the fourth edition of News18 Movies Awards in association with United Colours of Benetton, we select nominees in various popular categories and allow our readers decide the outcome.
Pink wasn’t meant for the faint hearted. Referred to as the best courtroom dramas that have been released in Bollywood in the recent past, Pink was a stark reminder of what any Indian women could be subjected to irrespective of her location. Directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury, Pink wasn’t just a significant film, but also excellently executed. It was a massive leap for Hindi cinema.
