HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | HAPPENINGS 'Heaven On Earth' to open Indian film fest in New York24th Sept 2008 09.55 IST By Agencies Indian filmmaker Deepa Mehta's film Heaven On Earth , which touches the issues of immigration, isolation and power of imagination, will open an annual film festival of Indian and diaspora films in New York. The film, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, will feature at this year's Mahindra Indo-American Arts Council Film Festival of Indian Independent and Diaspora Films on November 5, where it will be screened at the Lincoln Center Jazz. 
The 106-minute film in Punjabi and English revolves around Chand ( Preity Zinta ), who travels from India to Canada to marry Rocky (Vansh Bhardwaj), a man she has never met. Her dream of a new life morphs into a nightmare as marriage to Rocky and his family becomes a numbing spiral of confusion and pain. Chand finds hope in her friendship with Rosa (Yanna McIntosh), a street-smart woman from Jamaica who works with her at a laundry factory. Rosa gives Chand a magical root and promises that it will make Rocky fall deeply in love with her. The experiment ends in a surreal parallel life that mirrors an Indian fable involving a King Cobra. The closing film of the festival on November 9 will be ‘Little Zizou’, written and directed by Sooni Taraporevala. The 101-minute film stars Boman Irani , Sohrab Ardeshir and Imaad Shah among others with John Abraham in a special appearance.
