Priyanka Chopra Jonas starrer The Sky Is Pink to be premiered at TIFF

Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ fans are eagerly waiting for her film The Sky Is Pink. The movie will mark the actress’ comeback in Bollywood and also stars Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim in the lead roles. Directed by Shonali Bose, The Sky Is Pink is slated to release on 11th October 2019, but before that, it will be premiered at the 44th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

The movie has been selected as a part of the Gala Presentation at TIFF and will be premiered on  13th September 2019. TIFF is one of the most prestigious festivals and every year only 20 films are selected for the Gala Presentation. This year, The Sky Is Pink is the only film selected from all of Asia. The movie is produced by RSVP and Roy Kapur Films, in association with Ivanhoe Pictures and Purple Pebble Pictures.


Talking about the movie being selected at TIFF, director Shonali Bose said, "The Sky Is Pink is a deeply personal and an incredibly special film for me. At its core, this is an extraordinary story of what it means to be a family. I am honored that the film will premiere at TIFF – my third film to premiere at TIFF and I cannot wait.”

Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who is also the co-producer of the film, stated, “The Sky Is Pink is a story that I connected with from the minute I heard it and in Shonali’s hands, it’s been crafted into a moving, beautiful film that will renew our faith in love and life.  It’s what led me to not only take on the challenging role of Aditi Chaudhary but also to co-produce it with Ronnie and Siddharth. I am so proud of this film and am honoured that the film’s world premiere will take place at the Gala Presentation at TIFF 2019. I’m looking forward to being back at TIFF once again to showcase our small package of love to the world."

The Sky Is Pink is based on the life of Aisha Chaudhary, a motivational speaker who suffered from pulmonary fibrosis. Priyanka and Farhan will be seen as Aisha’s parents in the film.
