Water

I am talking about Deepa Mehta's latest offering starring John Abraham and Lisa Ray.
It has been nominated by Canada as its official entry to the Oscar's foreign film category. Its surprising since its a Hindi language film and is not considered to be among Canada's native languages. It makes me feel happy since its primarily a Indian film with an indian cast and script. Not only that, it also reflects on Canada's maturity as a multi ethnic society that has allowed it to nominate a Hindi language film.

Three Cheers to Water and Deepa Mehta.
