The Sky Is Pink

Aisha Chaudhary recounts the poignant tale of her parents, Moose and Panda, from the afterlife. The story begins with Aditi and Niren Chaudhary, a young couple whose diverse backgrounds bring them together in love. Their journey takes a heartbreaking turn when they welcome their first child, Tanya, who tragically passes away within months due to severe combined immunodeficiency.

The couple eventually has a second child, Ishaan. As time goes by, they are blessed with a third child, a daughter named Aisha. Their joy turns to despair as they discover that Aisha has inherited the same medical condition that claimed Tanya’s life. When doctors in Delhi lose hope for Aisha’s treatment, the couple seeks a solution in London, where they learn of an expensive bone marrow transplant that could save her life.

To fund the life-saving procedure, Niren begins working tirelessly and even reaches out for help through a radio station. After several weeks, they receive overwhelming support from the community, allowing Aisha to undergo surgery successfully. However, Aisha’s recovery requires her to remain under medical observation. As the family faces this hurdle, Aditi decides to stay in London for Aisha’s care, while Niren returns to India with their son, Ishaan.

Time passes, and Aisha triumphantly recovers from her illness, prompting the family to relocate back to India. They settle in an enormous, splendid bungalow on the outskirts of Delhi. Unfortunately, their happiness is short-lived when Aisha collapses during a party and is diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, a dire consequence of her previous chemotherapy. With Aisha’s future hanging in the balance, Aditi is determined to fulfill her daughter’s dreams—whether it’s adopting a pet, seeing the wonders of aquatic life, or writing a book.

As Aisha’s health declines, Aditi’s protective instincts intensify, leading to immense strain. Her mental health deteriorates, resulting in a psychotic breakdown that necessitates hospitalization. With unwavering love, Aditi strives to present Aisha with the first copy of her book before she passes.

After the loss of Aisha, the emotional burden tears Aditi and Niren’s relationship apart. They find themselves in constant conflict, pushing them further away from each other. In a fit of anger, Niren leaves for London, while Aditi remains in India, lost in her grief. Eventually, Aditi travels to London to confront Niren, and amidst their shared sorrow, they find a path to reconciliation by cherishing the memories of their beloved daughter, Aisha.
