But what exactly inspired the babe to make a comeback? It seems PZ was sitting next to the Dalai Lama in one of the cricket matches, and as her team lost the match so she got extremely disheartened and sat there sulking with a long face.

What’s common between Kareena Kapoor, Rani Mukerji and Preity Zinta? Well, for starters all three have been around for over a decade. Secondly, each of them has ruled from the top at some point in time or the other. Thirdly, they would be finding themselves in the middle of an unlikely three way battle this September.

”While HEROINE (Kareena) and AIYYA (Rani) were always supposed to hit the screens this September, now Preity has also joined the fray. There is a very strong likelihood of her ISHKQ IN PARIS releasing in the same month. This is an interesting development because this would be for the first time in last so many years that three heroine centric films would arrive in back to back weeks,” informs a trade source.

While Kareena is anyways reigning from the top and has Madhur Bhandarkar at the helm of affairs, her HEROINE has stayed on to be a very hot toppic for many months. On the other hand it is surprising though that the makers of AIYYA aren’t making much noise about the film. Comments a PR expert, ‘Perhaps AIYYA wants to make a sudden strike and then hit hard. However once that happens, it would indeed prove to be quite a challenge for HEROINE and ISHKQ IN PARIS.’ More

The bubbly Preity Zinta loved being surrounded by fans on Valentine’s Day while shooting for her debut production “Ishq In Paris”, but she requests them not to prematurely leak pictures taken on the sets.

“Busy day at work on Valentine’s but guess what … Met some wonderful fans, got tonnes of roses and had a great day at work! Ting Perfect. One humble request to all my fans … Please come and see the shoot, take as many photos you want but pls Dont put them on the internet as it leaks the look of the film and affects the movie negatively,” Preity posted on her Twitter page.

“When I am off set, I am more than happy to take photos … As long as you keep them for yourself! Otherwise I am very happy to see all you eager beavers on set ))) Hope it is not too much for me to ask you guys??? What say you?” she added.

It was an action-packed evening for B-town, thanks to a party to welcome international talk show queen Oprah Winfrey here.

Preity Zinta, who was on the star-studded guest list too, enjoyed the party, but it turned into a bad experience when her car ended up getting damaged due to paparazzi.

“Would have been a perfect evening until the press jumped all over the car n nearly got some1 killed n my car damaged n scratched.. Bachaao! (sic),” she tweeted after coming out of the party.

The damage to her car happened while she was on her way back home from the bash, which was organised by socialite Parmeshwar Godrej in honour of Winfrey, who is on her maiden visit to India. She landed here Monday. More

Ameesha Patel  isn’t the only actress who has found a place in Sunny Deol’s masala entertainer BHAIYYAJI SUPERHIT?, interestingly Pretty girl Preity Zinta has also made it to the list. The two actors have previously shared screen space in films like THE HERO, FARZ, and many more.

Sunny Deol, who developed a renewed interest in herogiri post the super success of YAMLA PAGLA DEEWANA, is surely becoming the hero for his actresses. Preity and Sunny kept their bonding alive and soon they’ll flaunt their onscreen chemistry in the film ‘BHAIYYAJI SUPERHIT?’. Confirms our source, ‘Both Sunny and Preity have acted in many films. They share a strong bond. Preity is even co-producing the film while Neeraj and he share a good relationship since RIGHT YAAA WRONG also helped.”

Ever since “The Dirty Picture” has hit the big screen, actress Vidya Balan has been receiving praise for her bold performance. Preity Zinta is the latest to appreciate her work and hopes she wins the top honours for her performance.

“Vidya Balan was brilliant in ‘Dirty Picture’! She blew my mind with her performance and sincerity. Full points to her and all Best Actress Awards,” the 36-year-old posted on Twitter.

With her perky smile and bouncy personality, Preity Zinta introduced Bollywood to the power of bubbly, a tag that’s stuck to her ever faithfully ever since.

While most heroines relied on their outright good looks or smoldering sex appeal to entice fans, PZ’s refreshing candor, chic style and child woman adorability made her one of tinsel town’s most exuberant celebrity.

With a good amount of successes behind her, the dimpled beauty appeared to be doing better than alright. Some major flops, misfired career choices and distraction called IPL, as it turned out, sent the actress into an unexpected sabbatical.

After a good two years of cheering for her cricket team, King’s XI Punjab, Zinta aimed to reemerge with a lackluster item song in superstar pal Salman Khan’s Main Aur Mrs Khanna. Both the song and movie tanked. Nor did her visible effort to sizzle things up find any buzz or mention. Just then small screen came to her rescue with the eponymous chat show, Up Close and Personal with Preity Zinta.

Bottom-line: Has the Kal Ho Naa Ho actress retained her amazing cuteness or has she become a victim of vanity like some of her contemporaries? Source

The mere difference in the years of experience in the industry between these two actors calls for respect from Preity Zinta for Anil Kapoor. The latter was in his talkative best on this week’s episode of Up, Close and Personal with PZ as he was on a spree of revealing one secret after the other.

But what he wasn’t prepared for was the strange remarks of Preity on Anil’s career. Preity went on to tell Anil that he works in such big banner movies but what is sad to see is that he is barely seen in those movies. The gentleman that he is he took the remark in his stride and moved on to talk about other things. More

Dimpled beauty Preity Zinta went gaga over her “Koi Mil Gaya” co-star Hrithik Roshan upon seeing his look in Karan Johar’s “Agneepath” remake.

She posted a message to Johar on Twitter, saying: “KJO! Saw Hrithik’s look in Agneepath & what can I say except its rocking & Drool Drool! All the best 4 this 1 Ting!”

The first look of the movie saw Hrithik wearing a red vest, jeans and a bandana, which reads ‘Govinda Mahautsav’.

He is seen covered in red colour from what seems like a Dahi Handi sequence and is running, with his rippling muscles there for all to see. No wonder Preity’s heart went “hmmmm…”. Source

A few weeks back when Preity had announced her decision to turn producer, there were still a few cynics who doubted whether wheels would indeed move fast enough for ISHQ IN PARIS. Also, since there was no name other than Preity which was announced, there were further speculations around its feasibility.

However, as it has turned out, Preity Zinta would be the only Bollywood personality in this Indo-French film that would have an all international cast and crew contributing to the making.

“Preity hasn’t made much noise around this international film yet as she wants to begin work and then let the world know about the vision she has for her first production. Both she as well as her co-producer and director Prem Soni are tight lipped about how far they eventually want to take ISHQ IN PARIS,” says a source from the film. More
