I'm walking on sunshine: Preity
28 Oct 2008, 0000 hrs IST, SUBHASH K JHA , TNN

Preity Zinta is ecstatic after winning the best actress award at the 44th Chicago International Film Festival for playing a battered Punjabi wife in Deepa Mehta's Heaven On Earth.

She is thankful to Anupam Kher for helping her get the right Punjabi diction for her role.

The award will be given tomorrow in a glittering ceremony. She has bagged the Silver Hugo Award for Best Actress "for her strong yet subtle performance as a woman struggling to keep her dreams despite brutal realities" in the Feature Film Competition section.

"It was my director, Deepa Mehta, who informed me that I had won. I couldn't go to Chicago, and neither could Deepa. Without any lobbying I've done it. I am so happy and excited. I'm walking on sunshine. I can't believe where I am," said Preity.

Anupam Kher's acting school is lucky for actors. First Deepika and now Preity.

Preity truly deserves this award👏. She actually changed with time. Earlier she did bubbly roles then slowly moved to serious ones. She is at a fine place now. Way to go!
