Piku isnt only about a man and his toilet travails. It is also about ageing, filial responsibility and nostalgia for what is gone forever.
Piku is the story of a cranky old Bengali widower Bhaskor Banerji(Amitabh Bachchan) who subjugates his paternal instincts to the health, or the lack of it, of his alimentary canal
Yes, Piku is also about the inexorable passage of time, which impacts everything - individuals, families, cities, cultures and belief systems.
Deepika Padukones role is very challenging and different from all other movies in which she has acted.Amitabh Bacchans bengali diction does not seem to be natural, its some what seems to be fake.Apart from that Irfan khan(Rana) has given a proper justice to his role.Movie is all about deeply layered father-daughter relationship that borders on the dysfunctional.
