If light has no mass, how does gravitational force bend light inwards

In the case of black holes, lights are pulled into by great gravitational force exerted by the dying stars (which forms into a black hole). If light has no mass, how is light affected by gravity?

It’s not bending the light. It is bending the structure of the surrounding spacetime the light is moving through. The universe the light is propagating through is what’s being “bent.”
