Heaven on Earth




Another Deepa Mehta movie, high on feminist sentiments. Priety Zinta stands out in this one. The movie is intense, the story lukewarm and the screenplay just about right.The movie is interestingly shot and tries to strike an element of depth in the story. However the story itself is dependent to much on the parallel interpretation of a folklore. Such an idea worked for Fire, which is still my favorite Deepa Mehta movie. However Heaven on Earth fails to create a realistic appeal in the story.

Overall, Heaven on Earth is a strictly "okayish" movie. Priety Zinta surely makes her mark.

My Rating - 2/5
