Gulaab Gang is an earnest film that takes itself seriously. There’s nothing tongue-in-cheek about Rajjo's desire to create a safe haven for women or to set up a school that will let the children of the area get an education. When Rajjo decides to compete against Sumitra in the upcoming elections, it's her zeal to do good that motivates her. Similarly, there's nothing comical about Chawla as the corrupt, evil politician who is formidable because of how conscienceless she is. It is exactly what its director wants it to be - yet another chip off the Bollywood block, just one that's pretty in pink.
