Pinjar


Yesterday I watched the movie 'Pinjar' (available on youtube). I liked the movie very much. It is a 2003 Indian period drama film directed by Chandra Prakash Dwivedi. The movie is about the Hindu-Muslim problems during the partition of India. The film is based on a Punjabi novel of the same name, written by Amrita Pritam.Urmila Matondkar, Manoj Bajpai and Sanjay Suri are in the lead roles. Besides critical acclaim, the film also won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film on National Integration.
Its a 2003 movie. No doubt Urmila did well but Vidya Balan would have been a better choice for the role. But Vidya Balan was new to films and her first film was 'Parineeta' which was released in 2005, i.e. two years after Pinjar.
