Was Preity Zinta behind Salman-Aishwarya’s Breakup? Leaked Recording Revealed the Truth
Preity Zinta is one such Bollywood actress who is an OG savage queen and a no-nonsense woman. How, let’s check out here.
Before Deepika Padukone, the OG Dimple queen was Preity Zinta. However, other factors included her in the A-list celebrity. From owning a stand against the underworld to giving a befitting reply to fake mongers, Preity woman has repeatedly proved that she slays on-screen and savage off-screen.
How did Preity rise to fame?
Preity Zinta was born on 31st January and was an army brat. She was from a well-to-do family, but life was complicated. At 13, she lost her dad, and her mom got severely injured in an accident. Preity knows very well that she has to start earning early. Therefore, after attaining a degree in criminal physiology, Zinta tried her luck in modelling. She also got a chocolate commercial which aided her in building connections in Bollywood.

At a Bollywood party, she got introduced to Shekhar Kapoor, who recognised acting talent in Preity. He even offered her a role in his film, but unfortunately, the film got cancelled. However, Kapoor did not return his words and recommended her to Director Mani Ratnam, who was finding a face for ‘Dil Se.’ Her screen presence was only 20 minutes long, but her impact on the audience was much more significant.
In 1998, Preity debuted as a female lead at 23 in the film Soldier. Although she was a newcomer, she was too picky while taking up the role.
Preity was a newcomer; still, she never showed any haste or greed to do more and more films. While her counterparts were doing 5-6 movies in a year, the Soldier actress remains at 3. She didn’t want to be stereotyped as eye candy. And indeed, she did what she believed. When actresses refrain from playing mother on-screen, Zinta, at the initial stage of her career, played the role of an unmarried mother in Kya Kehna in 2000, a surrogate in Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, a fierce reporter in Lakshay, and an Indian spy in The Hero: Love Story of a Spy, live-in relationship in Salaam Namaste, and many more. However, people when crazy seeing her Dil Chahta Hai. But this stardom did come with inevitable repercussions.
When Preity took Panga with the underworld
In that era, many celebrities received phone calls from the underworld demanding extortion money. Preity Zinta was one of the A-list celebrities among those. But at least they knew that intimidating her was hard. She filed a case against those calls, and many other actors also gathered the courage to do the same. However, no other “so-called” Bollywood hero/heroine moves except Zinta moved to court to testify about the statement. It was only Priety Zinta who dared to uphold her views.
In 2000-2001, Aishwarya-Salman’s relationship and breakup rumours were on fire. Meanwhile, Preity was also a film with Salman, Chori Chori Chupke Chupke. A media house released a phone recording, and Preity Zinta is responsible for their breakup. Salman also cheated Aishwarya with Zinta. Typically, celebrities don’t pay heed to such rumours. But this actress could let this go. Therefore, she filed a case against that media house, and that recording eventually turned out to be fake.

When Ness Slapped Preity at a party
Preity admitted her relationship with Ness Wadia in 2005. But Wadia’s family did not like Preity much and went on insulting her. However, in 2008 they became business partners from lovers as they became co-owners of the IPL team Kings XI Punjab. And who kahte Hain a, Jaha Pyar Karo uske sath Kabhi vaipar na Karo, well, it got true with Zinta.
Ness was an abusive person that made their relationship toxic. Even he slapped his then-girlfriend Zinta at a party. She also filed a case against Ness for abuse and ended her 4-year-long relationship. But their business partnership continued. However, it is said that Ness used to demean and insult Zinta in business meets. Therefore, in 2014, she filed a case against Ness, accusing him of abuse and threats.
(Ness, you should do some research about this fiery girl. If she didn’t get intimidated by the underworld, do you think she would tolerate you?)
Later, Ness apologised for his behaviour. This proves that Preity doesn’t take anybody’s nonsense. But this greatly affected her acting career as she took a break from Bollywood. Preity tried to make a comeback in 2013, with Ishq in Paris and appeared in a few others films too. But all went flop.
In 2016, she found love across the border, married Gene Goodenough, and moved to Los Angles. However, Preity has her IPL team, so she frequently visits India during the season. Without any godfather, she made a name for herself in the industry. She was never greedy for the frame. Preity Zinta’s Bollywood career has been short but sweet.
