Filmmaker Deepa Mehta’s Heaven On Earth starring Preity Zinta is all set to hit Indian theatres as Videsh on March 20.
Q: What can one expect from Heaven on Earth?
A: Heaven on Earth is renamed as Videsh and it’s going to release on March 20. The film is very close to my heart, it’s a very vulnerable and fragile piece. It’s about a subject that is very important. What one can expect is a piece of poetry.
Q: You were very confident that Preity Zinta was right for th role. Did she meet your expectations?
A: Preity is exceptional and simply mind-blowing in the film. It’s a forceful performance which is honest, grounded and doesn’t feel like a performance – which is an ultimate compliment I can give to an actor.
Q: What is the status of your next project Midnight’s Children?
A: We haven’t decided on teh casting as yet, Salman and myself are going to write the film. We are going to do it in two months time.We’ve given ourselves six weeks to do it.
Q: Do you think Slumdog Millionaire given recognition to Indian talent?
A: It’s a British film for me since its been directed by Danny Boyle, but it’s a recognition for A R Rahman.
