A visit to the country to shoot for the last leg of The Sky Is Pink doubled up as an opportunity for Priyanka Chopra Jonas to play mentor to Sanjay Leela Bhansali's niece Sharmin Segal. Chopra, who developed a fondness for the youngster following their collaboration on Mary Kom (2014) and Bajirao Mastani (2015), decided to watch the rushes of her debut vehicle, Malaal.

During their interaction, the young actor, we hear, even taught Chopra the hook step of her track, Udhal Ho. Evidently impressed by Segal's performance, Chopra tells mid-day, "I am proud of Sharmin. As an assistant director on Bajirao Mastani and Mary Kom, she worked closely with me. I saw how hardworking and sincere she is. These are traits that will help her grow as an actor. I've seen how committed she is towards turning her dream of becoming an actor into reality."
