Heaven On Earth is a Movie with a Difference


The film titled Heaven On Earth is about the life of a bride from Punjab which changes in the course of just seven days. Deepa Mehta's Heaven on Earth is screened at the Toronto Film Festival on 6th September at the prestigious Elgin theatre.” I'm proud to have my film there in the 'Special Representation' section," says Deepa.

The film's leading lady Preity Zinta had joined Deepa in Toronto for the Festival screening. "And that's when Preity dubbed her portion of the film in Hindi", informs Deepa. The Punjabi film is being dubbed into Hindi as a two-language film on the insistence of the film's Indian distributor Ravi Chopra. However, Deepa insists that the Hindi version will have a very restricted screening. “The language of the film is Punjabi," she insists. The entire cast barring Preity is from Toronto.
