Well Preity Zinta has finally got her hands on the coveted trophy of the Best actress not at the very publicized Filmfare awards but at highly acclaimed Chicago International Film Festival for her performance in flick Heaven on Earth.

The bubbly actress excitedly exclaims, “I am so happy and excited. I’m going to have a blissfully debauched celebration this evening. It was my director Deepa Mehta who informed me on Saturday afternoon that I had won. Neither Deepa nor I could go to Chicago, I’m thrilled that I’ve done it without any lobbying,”

Preity who has switched to offbeat movies like The Last Lear, Heroes and Heaven on Earth recently is on cloud nine.

She adds, “I’m walking on sunshine. Do you know everyone discouraged me from doing Heaven On Earth and Heroes? But I wanted a change.”

We congratulate Preity on her well deserved success.:)
