On the other hand, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Farhan Akhtar starrer The Sky Is Pink has not been able to do much on the box office. The film picked up steam on Day 2 but fell flat on Day 3. The film failed to even garner much money at the multiplexes and appeal to its target audience. As per a trade website, the film has raked in a total of Rs 4 crore on its third day at the box office. The film has managed to rake in a total of Rs 10.50 crore in three days at the box office.
Based on the life of motivational speaker and author Aisha Chaudhary, The Sky Is Pink is directed by Shonali Bose and also stars Zaira Wasim and Rohit Saraf.
#TheSkyIsPink is dull... Gathered momentum on Day 2 [Sat], but fell flat on Day 3 [Sun], more so towards evening shows... Even its target audience - multiplex crowd - didn’t embrace it wholeheartedly... Fri 2.50 cr, Sat 4 cr, Sun 4.20 cr. Total: 10.70 cr. #India biz.

The Sky Is Pink’s first-weekend collection is lower than the second-weekend collection of Joaquin Phoenix starrer Joker despite both the films having the same target audience. Joker, which witnessed a decent opening of Rs 5.15 crore on October 2, has now entered the Rs 50-crore club at the box office on Day 12.
The film is directed by Todd Phillips and is a spinoff on the backstory of Arthur Fleck who eventually turns into Batman’s arch-nemesis and Clown Prince of Crime. The film also stars Robert De Niro in a pivotal role.
