Straight Talk with Preity Zinta: Political Rumors Debunked
Fan confronted with exasperated apology from Preity Zinta over repeated inquiry about BJP affiliation: "I'm distressed by this question's recurrence"
In a recent AMA session on X (formerly Twitter), Bollywood star Preity Zinta addressed rumors surrounding her potential association with any political party, particularly the BJP.
Preity made it clear that her love for her country and cultural events should not be misconstrued as political affiliations. "Folks, living outside India has made me appreciate it even more, but attending temples or cultural events doesn't equate me joining BJP or politics," she asserted.
A curious fan had questioned if Preity would join the BJP in the near future, prompting the actress to express her frustration with the judgemental behavior prevalent on social media platforms. However, the fan later clarified that the question was asked out of genuine interest, and Preity responded graciously, expressing her disappointment that her simple joy of embracing her Indian identity was being politicized.
The actress admitted to feeling the pressure of constant questioning about her political leanings, stating, "I've had enough of this political BS. I just want to focus on raising my kids with Indian values while living abroad. Sorry if I came off rough, but I've developed PTSD from these questions."
Preity Zinta tied the knot with Gene Goodenough in 2016 and welcomed twins, a boy named Jai and a girl named Gia, through surrogacy in November 2021. Recently, she has been making a comeback to Bollywood after a seven-year hiatus. Her upcoming film is "Lahore 1947," directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and produced by Aamir Khan. The film stars Sunny Deol in the lead role alongside Shabana Azmi and Ali Fazal[1][2][3][4][5].
