The Sky is Pink

"A tighter edit and perhaps a little less fragmentation might have made it the film it wants to be."

"[It] is definitely a stirring watch as your heart goes out to the Chaudhary family and their zest for making every moment count, despite the trying times they go through. This one scores high on the emotional quotient."

"The writer and director Shonali Bose bounces from tone to tone, livening the somber subject matter with bright hues, quippy dialogue and an ever-jubilant score."

"The ending is unforgivably mawkish... and the running time of two-and-a-quarter hours is simply too long."

"The emotions we witness and feel should have more force given the obviously stressful circumstances depicted. But they feel like all the edges have been sawed off to flatter both the subjects and principal actors."

"For those who like head-on, immersive emotional experiences at the movies, The Sky Is Pink may be a direct hit."

"The Sky Is Pink is a heartwarming story narrated with a balanced mix of emotions. While the performances shine, the story, too, leaves an impact."

"The sky can indeed be any colour you want, there's lovely whimsy in the title. It needed to have seeped into the film."
