The Sky Is Pink is an Indian Hindi-language biographical drama film directed by Shonali Bose and co-produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur, Ronnie Screwvala and Chopra under the banner of RSVP Movies, Roy Kapur Films and Purple Pebble Pictures. It stars Priyanka Chopra, Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim and is based on motivational speaker Aisha Chaudhary who was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. The doctor had given Aisha just one year to live unless she underwent a bone marrow transplant, and even then, the risk would not go away completely.

Thus the film ‘The Sky Is Pink’ is the life story of motivational speaker Aisha Chaudhary. Based on My Little Epiphanies, The Sky Is Pink chronicles the life of Aisha Chaudhary, who became an inspirational speaker after being diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis when she was thirteen-years-old. In other words she was a young motivational speaker who was born with an immune deficiency disorder.

The film has Priyanka Chopra as Aditi Chaudhary, Aisha's mother, Farhan Akhtar as Niren Chaudhary, Aisha's father, Zaira Wasim as Aisha Chaudhary and Rohit Suresh Saraf as Ishaan Mihir Chaudhary Aisha Chaudhary’s brother who is a composer and music producer (MEMBA).
