Amitabh Bachchan feels honoured after Pink is invited for UN screening

Mumbai: Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Pink’, which released earlier this year, was appreciated so much that it almost led to a movement on social media where the audiences appreciated the portrayal of the menace of sexual harassment and other crimes against women.

There were also reports of the film being used as a platform to promote the Zero FIR law and also to sensitise police forces towards women. It is set to accomplish another important achievement. Bachchan, who played a lawyer in the venture, took to Twitter to share that the film was invited for a special screening at the United Nations headquarters.

‘Pink’ released on September 16 this year and had starred Taapsee Pannu, Andrea Tariang and Kirti Kulhari in lead roles, ably supported by Angad Bedi and Piyush Mishra among others. The film was presented by Shoojit Sircar.
