Colombo Court Hotel & Spa welcomes Deepa Mehta


Colombo Court Hotel & Spa expresses that it was a great pleasure to have Deepa Mehta stay with them. Born in India, Mehta’s first film was ‘Sam and Me’. She is known as a ground-breaking screen writer, director and producer.

Her emotionally resonating, award winning films are very famous all around the world. She is also well known for her trilogy: Fire, Earth and Water.

The director, whose previous works like Earth and Midnights Children were also book adaptations, said it’s hard for her not to visualise books cinematically while she’s reading. “I love adapting books. There are some books which are cinematic and there are some which aren’t. When I read a book, I keep visualising it. Words come to life, you form images and sometimes I can even see who’s acting in it.” “The soothing environment fashioned by the Hotel helps minds to dive in creativity. It’s our pleasure to make Deepa’s stay at our hotel a memorable one,” says Colombo Court Hotel & Spa General Manager Wojciech Raus. “We are extremely proud and happy to welcome the great film maker Deepa Mehta.”
