that Chopra Jonas loved the script and wanted to meet her. “And thus the


journey started—blessed by Ishan all the way,” she says.


The two women grew close while shooting, drawn together by a mutual


understanding of loss and love. “We laughed, we cried, we bonded,” says Bose.


“Priyanka is extremely hard-working and committed. She had to fly to Paris

But, at the core of The Sky Is Pink is a love between husband and wife that


cuts through the pain. Despite the countless sorrows and hurdles, the two


remain as committed to each other as they are to their family. That’s something


newlywed Chopra Jonas can relate to.


“Nick and I are both big lovers of family,” she says. “Today is the opening

kids—and food and a dog. It’s amazing.” Her family expanded again recently

conspiratorially, like a woman who knows she could have lost that lottery.


Despite her marriage, Chopra Jonas is hardly settling down. She manages


a tri-coastal “nomadic” existence for now, with homes in L.A., New York and


Mumbai. “Both Nick and I fly back and forth from India,” she explains. “He


was in India eight times last year, and I go every couple of months because I


still have a lot of things that I’m producing there.”


“Home is wherever I choose it to be,” she says. “As long as I have the people


who matter.” 
