From highest opening day to highest week 1 (extended), it’s not just shattering records, it’s creating them. Amidst all of this, a very sweet film The Sky Is Pink released along with Will Smith’s Gemini Man. Whereas the latter will hardly find any buyers, but Priyanka, Farhan’s film will target its audience.

As per the early trends flowing in the movie has earned in the range of 2.50-3.50 crores. This, by no means, is a remarkable feat but it shows it has the scope to rise further on the weekend. 

It’s to be seen how well War performs and dent the business of The Sky Is Pink.

Priyanka also appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to promote the film. The Sky is Pink has become the first Hindi film to be promoted on the US TV show.

The film is based on the life of Aisha Chaudhary, who became a motivational speaker after being diagnosed with an immune deficiency order at the age of 13. It also sheds light on the love story of her parents. 

It has been directed by Shonali Bose and stars Zaira Wasim as Aisha and Rohit Saraf as her onscreen brother.    —Koimoi
