Preity Zinta is one of the actresses known for her glam quotient. We saw that in the IPL and in her movies. However, in the movie Videsh directed by Deepa Mehta she has given a performance that would make actors envy her. That is the kind of role an actor looks for in her career and it is a very satisfying feeling when you know that you have given your best.Deppa Mehta has also directed critically acclaimed movies like Earth, Water and Fire.

The actress will be seen in a completely new avatar in this movie. She plays a woman who lives in Canada Toronto. She is one who is abused by her family. The movie displays her plight. The movie can somewhat draw resemblance to the movie Firaaq made by Nandita Das. The movie shows the way of living of a family from Punjab living in Canada.

After doing some excellent cinema with Karan Johar and Yashraj she has now moved on and is open to all sorts of roles. This performance might be far superior to any other performance she has given so far in her career. The movie will change the thought that prevails in many families these days. Preity has done non-glamorous role last year in the movie Heroes but you cannot make comparison between the two movies.

The way in which people movie move on with their lives in the most adverse situations is what inspired Deepa to make the movie. The movie is about to release in India and Preity is hopeful that this one will touch the hearts of the audiences and they will be able to connect to the movie. Preity also has a cameo in the movie Mr. And Mrs. Khanna.
