THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, India (AFP) - An Indian movie director said he hopes to persuade Paris Hilton to play the role of Nobel laureate and prospective Catholic Saint, Mother Teresa, in an upcoming film.

"Her features resemble Mother Teresa," director T. Rajeevnath told AFP from the southwestern coastal state of Kerala.

The filmmaker said Hilton is on his shortlist after a computer-generated image showed a close facial match between the hotel heiress and the Albanian-born nun.

Mother Teresa, who died in 1997, worked among the poor in the teeming slums of Kolkata, formerly Calcutta, with the Missionaries of Charity. She was beatified by Pope John Paul in 2003, a significant step on the road to sainthood in the Catholic church.

"A meeting with Paris Hilton is scheduled for the end of April," Rajeevnath said.

The 54-year-old director is well-known in India for his Malayalam-language films, including "Janani" (Mother) -- the story of seven nuns who care for an abandoned baby, which won a national award.

Hilton's prior movie experience includes appearing in a home-made sex video made by a former boyfriend that appeared on the Internet, and parts in several Hollywood B-films.

The blond socialite, who is often the focus of US celebrity gossip columns, also starred in the US reality television show "The Simple Life".

:jawdrop: I am really confused...

I think this is nothing more than a director hoping to get lucky off of the set.

Wow, nothing like taking maybe the most pious woman of the past century, and have her portrayed on screen by a filthy slut.

She resembles Mother Theresa? I didn't know that. Didn't Mother Theresa wear the same clothes every day?

This movie will have the highest opening-weekend box office ratings ever then dissappear forever afterwards.

Apparently, this director has about the same marketing flair as the producer of Brokeback Mountain. Maybe the following advice will help both.

1. When making a cowboy movie, your target audience is mostly homophobic males. If you want to make a gay love story, make the main characters dancers or hair dressers.

2. When making a movie about Mother Teresa, your target audience are middle aged and older devout Catholics. Don't offend them by casting the sluttiest actress/model/bum in Hollywood.
