Preity Zinta Geared Up For Deepa Mehta’s ‘Heaven On Earth’

After the hectic IPL, the hot and sizzling Bollywood beauty Preity Zinta is Preity Zinta now back to work and shooting for Deepa Mehta’s upcoming flick ‘Heaven On Earth,’ which is based on domestic violence.

Deepa said that she has been inspired by countless sources for the film that has Preity playing the female lead.

Preity plays the female lead in the movie, but amazingly, the film’s hero is not a stud, he is not handsome, and he doesn’t even show off the much-demanded ‘six pack abs.’

The acclaimed filmmaker Deepa has cast a ‘snake’ opposite Preity, as the hero of the film.

In ‘Heaven on Earth’, Preity plays the role of an innocent girl ‘Chand’, who is harassed by her in- laws after she marries a Canadian NRI, ‘Rocky’.

And guess what happens?

It’s the snake that lives in their backyard, comes to her rescue, and gets the ‘sinless’ lady saved from her rude in-laws as well as husband’

A source near to the film said, “Initially, when Preity read the script, she was very excited about her character, but when the shoot began, it became hard for the actress to get deep into the skin of the character.”

Preity, however, managed to remain very quiet and courageous, and the actress is indeed trying to give it her best shot, as always.

Mehta had the film's first preview recently in Toronto and was happy with the audience reaction.

"There was pin-drop silence after the film. Though I've kept the violence largely out of camera range, it's a very disturbing film. And a lot of people who know Preity Zinta's work couldn't recognize her!"
