Ahead of the film’s world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on 13 September, the makers of The Sky is Pink have released new stills from the film. Directed by Shonali Bose (Margarita, With a Straw), it is based on the short life of motivational speaker Aisha Chaudhary who was born with an immune deficiency disorder and was later diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. The film stars Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar with Dangal actor Zaira Wasim as Aisha.

After film shoot wrapped, Shonali posted notes thanking Zaira, Priyanka and Farhan and acknowledging the hard work they put into the film. Calling Zaira her “brightest ray of sunshine”, Shonali wrote on Instagram that she had “the toughest role” but carried it off with “utmost ease and poise”. “You surpassed your own brilliant self in this film. And on the last day you killed it while we almost killed you shooting from 11am to 3:30 am! I’ll be forever grateful my little rockstar for our journey together,” she added. In June, Zaira announced her decision to quit Bollywood saying that it interfered with her faith and religion.

Shonali thanked Priyanka for making time to shoot despite her wedding with Nick Jonas being around the corner. “You were courageous enough to shoot such wrenching things with me mere days before one of the happiest days of your life,” she wrote.

Produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur’s RSVP Movies and written by Shonali Bose and Juhi Chaturvedi, The Sky is Pink will release in theatres on 11 October.
