Mother-Daughter Memoir Reviewed

Shooting Water, the acclaimed memoir by Devyani Saltzman chronicling her reconciliation with her filmmaker mother Deepa Mehta during the production of the Oscar-nominated film "Water," was just reviewed on LokVani.com, a website for the Indian community in New England.

Reviewer Judi (Simran) Silva wrote about the book it is "an amazing, emotional, heartwarming, informative and excellently written journal on Devyani Saltzman's experiences of the shooting of Water, her coming of age and the sweet reunion with her mother Deepa. It was a book this reader could not put down until every last page was finished."
