	PARINEETA (2005) Movie Review at Radio Sargam Online...: Bollywood Portal
		He made ‘Parineeta’ with the help of director Bimal Roy and that film is still remembered for its strong portrayal of the lead character by none other than tragic queen Meena Kumari.
		What struck everyone was the starkness of the stories, the simplicity of it all – something that debutant director Pradeep Sarkar’s ‘adaptation’ of Parineeta steamrolls with its shafts of light and a Calcutta permanently bathed in a Ray Ban afterglow.
		Pradeep Sarkar’s maiden attempt ‘Parineeta’ may not stand in near vicinity of Ashok Kumar-Bimol Roy’s masterpiece but he along with his cast and crew deserve an acknowledgement for making a film that lingers in your mind even when it is over.

		He made 'Parineeta' with the help of director Bimal Roy and that film is still remembered for its strong portrayal of the lead character by none other than tragic queen Meena Kumari.
		If 'Parineeta' and after that 'Paheli' also made on a literary work by Vijay Dan Jetha succeed, chances are bright that those trying to rake in moolah with sex and shit will learn a lesson from this.
		On the whole, 'Parineeta' is a film that will earn its patronage mostly from the mass audience, and that is where the producer-director duo must be aiming to shoot at too.

	Movie Review : Parineeta (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		PARINEETA may not be that perfect film -- it has its share of flaws -- but there's no denying that the film has moments that keep you hooked most of the times.
		Based on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's classic literary work, PARINEETA transports you to an era that the current generation is alien to.
		Sanjay Dutt is efficient in a smaller role comparatively, although the fire that one would've associated with the character in the climax is missing.

	Amardeep Singh: Parineeta: A Star is Born
		Parineeta reminds one a good deal of Devdas -- both movies are adaptations of Saratchandra novels -- but the melodrama in Parineeta is much lighter than the Devdas story.
		No wonder then that she endures with apparent self-respect the abuses of the man she is bound to by the sanctity of marriage.
		I recently saw "Parineeta" at a press screening for the 24th San Francisco International Film Festival and I'm so glad I had the opportunity to see it since my schedule during the festival would not have allowed it.

	Parineeta - a trip back to a simpler time
		Color vs. fl and white, lavish sets compared to the simple architecture of the two neighboring households, and the music- one with a soundtrack that may soon be forgotten, the other with songs still some are still humming fifty years later.
		Parineeta, both versions (there is a third also, I believe), is based on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s novel of the same title, published in 1914.
		Shekhar seems to have forgotten that Lalita is a parineeta – a married woman.

		Parineeta isn't what one would think it would be.
		Parineeta fails to evoke any emotions with the adapted version of the Bengali novel by Sarat Chandra.
		LG, you know what, this "suspense" was hardly that mainly because this formula is so well known in Indian movies, where everyone is perfectly ideal (as u have mentioned in your HAHK tribute) and there was no way Vidya Balan's character would go after Saif after she was married to Sanjay Dutt...

	Parineeta (2005 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Parineeta (Hindi: परिणीता, Urdu: پرنیتا, translation: The Married Woman) is a Bollywood musical adaptation of the 1914 Bengali novella, Parineeta by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay.
		Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay, the author of Parineeta, was a contemporary of Rabindranath Tagore; both authors documented Bengali life and social issues at the turn of the century.
		Parineeta 's Lalita is dressed to resemble Nashtanir/Charulata 's Charu (Madhabi Mukherjee), particularly during the song "Soona Man Ka Aangan", which incorporates Tagore's song "Fule Fule Dhole Dhole." In both Parineeta and Charulata, "Fule Fule Dhole Dhole" is sung while Lalita and Charu are each on a swing

	Parineeta is a must watch
		But, at the same time, he is faced with the cinematic challenge of distilling emotions expressed in fine print onto the screen.
		Happily, Parineeta emerges as an era-evoking love story which captures the eye -- and the mind -- through three complex characters for who, most importantly, we come to care deeply for.
		She is the parineeta (married woman) who wants her husband to claim her, she won't stake her right as his wife.

	Film review: Parineeta
		Based on Saratchandra Chatterjee’s novel, Parineeta is the story of two childhood friends — Lolita (newcomer Vidya Balan) and Shekhar (Saif Ali Khan), both hailing from different strata of society.
		Parineeta is the story of a woman’s endless wait for her love and director Pradeep Sarkar weaves the story like magic, especially in the first half.
		If Parineeta falls short of being a masterpiece, it’s only due to the few howlers in the latter half.

		After watching the latest Devdas and Parineeta without reading the originals, still it becomes easier to connect with and understand Saratchandra's affinity for his central characters.
		The gentle flow of this film is rudely interrupted by certain things which could be ignored in the name of cinematic liberties but the climax is too overstated where Shekhar physically breaks the wall dividing the houses of the two families.
		Sure, the plot is rehashed formula (rich jerk tries to steal house from lowly neighbor, his son falls in love with their daughter, complications ensue).

	Parineeta Review \| ApunKaChoice.Com
		Parineeta is primarily a simple story of human emotions.
		The characters in the story are not simply fl and white, good or evil, but have many gray shades that come about with the change of situations.
		The gorgeous debutante has a remarkable range of facial expressions and there is not a single scene in the movie when you can catch her acting.

		'Parineeta' is a period film set in the era of the British Raj (very much like Vinod Chopra's '1942 Love Story').
		One must add that it may be necessary, as this song is the one where the heroine gives herself up to her beloved and becomes 'Parineeta' (meaning - the married woman).
		On the whole 'Parineeta' is an album that oozes with class and melody that is soaked in the rich Bengali culture.

		As anticipated earlier, it is a classy score and hence would be highly appreciated by the urban audience.
