/> Contrary to reports in a section of the press Carpet Boy to be written by Faroukh Dhondy won't be Deepa Mehta's first true-life story.

In July this year she finally starts filming Luna, the true life story of environmentalist Julia Hill who 'embraced' the trees of California and lived on top of one for nearly two years to prevent ecological devastation.

Deepa who's currently co-directing the comedy Stella in Delhi with her brother Dilip Mehta goes into Luna in July. And then she shoots a big Hollywood epic Land Of The Morning Calm again based on a true story for a big American studio.

"So if anything, Carpet Boy is my third true-life film in a row," she laughs.

"It's the story of a Pakistani boy called Iqbal Masih who singlehandedly changed laws pertaining to child labour in the carpet-weaving industry. For his crusading spirit, Iqbal was murdered."

Deepa says Carpet Boy would be a departure from all the films she has directed so far. "This film is based on Faroukh Dhondy's script.And I'll direct it at the end of 2009."
