Review: Priyanka Chopra stars in ‘The Sky Is Pink,’ a stirring Bollywood drama minus the songs

Priyanka Chopra returns to Bollywood in Shonali Bose’s epic family drama “The Sky Is Pink,” a biopic of teenage motivational speaker and author Aisha Chaudhary , who died of pulmonary fibrosis in 2015 at the age of 18.

You say “minus the songs” in a very strange way.. are you stereotyping Indian films?

This movie does have songs maybe you didn't actually watch the movie before reviewing it 😂😂😂
