Preity can even bet on the fact that no body could have done the role better than Kajol.”Look at Kajol. She goes and gets married, has a kid. She disappears for three years and she comes back does some thing like My Name Is Khan and she is so good in the film. I can bet that none of the actresses can stand in front of her,” Preity said.

American experts from NBA will train us,” said Preity, who stands 5 feet 5 inches tall in her socks but has quite a sporting background.

“Nobody knows I’ve been a gymnast for 11 years, I did karate for nine years, I am very good at basketball and I rifle shoot too,” she said, adding, “People said that it was a crazy idea to give one-and-a half years to IPL, but then today, financially, I don’t have to care for the rest of my life.”Does that mean she won’t do films for money anymore? “Are you kidding? I’m not retiring to the jungles! Of course, money is important. I do charity and all but I still need to wear my brands, travel first class and pamper myself. I believe more in living rich than dying rich. My biggest fear is to die broke, ex-film star,” laughed the actress, who devotes a lot of time to causes like child trafficking and the upliftment of women. “I want to do full-on commercial films now,” she said.

Preity Zinta goes ‘happening’ for Prem

Since the time Preity Zinta donned on the cap of a IPL team owner and slipped perfectly into the role of a businesswoman, she has seemed to vanish from the silver screen. However, the lady has finally done a sizzling item number for the forthcoming ‘Main Aur Mrs. Khanna’ for the sake of her special friendship with Salman Khan.

Preity does look really ‘happening’ in the sing which is also titles ‘happening’ for she has slogged real hard to get that ‘happening’ look. She not only followed a special diet but also took up a tough exercise regime and yoga.

However, the flip side of the song is that it looks very much like the ‘Kajra Re’ number done by Aishwarya Rai where Preity is seen making a similar gang of guys sway to her verve. However, the director Prem Soni brushes off this similarity saying, “Unlike Ash, who was just a part of ‘Kajra Re’, Preity plays an important role in the film.”

Preity Zinta said to a news daily, “It’s an interesting cameo. The song’s called ‘Happening’ and I agreed to do it because director Prem Soni is a friend. And since Salman has played Prem so often, let’s just say this one is for Prem.” Advertisement
