The Sky Is Pink, starring Priyanka Chopra, Farhan Akhtar, Zaira Wasim and Rohit Saraf, premiered at the Toronto Film Festival on Saturday, September 15. So far, the film has received good reviews from the international media and audiences, with reports saying that the film is an 'immersive emotional experience'.
The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "For those who like head-on, immersive emotional experiences at the movies, The Sky Is Pink may be a direct hit. It makes a lot more demands on the heartstrings than the first film from writer-director Shonali Bose, her moving but more moderate 2014 Netpac-winner, Margarita With a Straw..."
Twitter users, too, have commended the movie. Here's what one of them tweeted: "Truly the most beautiful movie I've seen this year. Please watch this film! #TheSkyIsPink"
