~~Heaven on Earth~~

~~Heaven on Earth~~ Director: Deepa Mehta


Producer: David Hamilton, Ravi Chopra
Cast: Preity Zinta

The actress with the cutest dimples in Bollywood, Preity Zinta has been eagerly awaiting her opportunity to work with an acclaimed director of the likes of Deepa Mehta, and Heaven on Earth provided her the chance that she was looking for. Preity is set to play a battered Punjabi housewife in this Punjabi film and is also apparently doing a workshop to come to grips with the character's body language and milieu. Heaven on Earth is about a Punjabi woman who hails form the North who goes through the rigors of domestic violence.

Trivia:
# Jagmohan Mundhra's Provoked (2007) starring Aishwarya Rai also had a very similar plotline of a Punjabi housewife being a victim of domestic violence in London.
# With films like Heaven on Earth, Har Pall and The Last Lear, Preity Zinta is apparently trying to establish herself as an actress of substance in the offbeat non-commercial genre.
