Around 35,000 children are born with cleft palates in India each year. While it is one of the most common birth defects, it is also one of the most curable. We talk with director Megan Mylan about her Academy Award-winning documentary "Smile Pinki," which follows two of the hundreds of families that journey to the holy city of Banaras and the hospital that provides free surgery for children with cleft palates. "Smile Pinki" airs on HBO on Wednesday, June 3 at 7 pm.

  • In the video, it was said that the highest amounts of people born with cleft lips and palates are from India and China. That might be because those two countries have the highest population numbers in the world, do it may just seem like there are more cases...

  • My friend,...

    Thank you... "Thank you so much for smile Pinki"..
