Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Farhan Akhtar starrer The Sky Is Pink is off to a start that most filmmakers only dream of. The Shonali Bose-directed venture will have its world premiere at the Gala presentation of the 44th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on September 13, joining the likes of Hollywood's acclaimed projects, A Star Is Born (2018) and Green Book (2018), that have previously held the honour.

Deeply attached to the material of The Sky Is Pink, the director is glad that her human drama will be showcased on such a wide platform. "At its core, this is an extraordinary story of what it means to be a family. I am honoured that the film will premiere at TIFF — my third film to premiere there," she exults.
