Biography
Early life
Born in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, she hails from a Rajput family of Rohru in Shimla District. She initially planned to do an English honours but later decided to pursue psychology. She also attended Bombay University. After earning a degree in criminal psychology at the St. Bedes College, Zinta began her career as a model and commercial (ad films) actress (she was seen in Lyril's soap ad film).
Her father, Durganand Zinta was an officer in the Indian Army. Durganand Zinta died when Preity was thirteen, in a car accident which also involved her mother, Nilprabha Zinta. Her mother broke many bones in the accident, including her spine. Her mother was bedridden for two years because of this incident. Zinta has two brothers, Deepankar Zinta and Manish Zinta, a year older and a year younger, respectively. Deepankar is a commissioned officer in the Indian Army, while Manish is settled in Los Angeles.
Career
Zinta was meant to make her acting debut with Shekhar Kapur's Tara Rum Pum Pum opposite Hrithik Roshan but the film never took off.
Technically her first film was Kundan Shah's Kya Kehna but it got delayed till 2000. The delay of another film Soldier meant that she made her acting debut with Dil Se (1998). The film was her breakthrough role and she won the Filmfare Best Debut Award for her performance, which was only twenty minutes long. This was followed by the success of Soldier and Kya Kehna. Critics began to take notice of her after her performance in the latter. Her role as a teenage single mother was well acclaimed and she received various nominations in the best actress category. Later, she had successes with the films Mission Kashmir (2000) which was the third highest grossing film of the year, Dil Chahta Hai (2001) which entered into the top five highest geossing films of the year, and Chori Chori Chupke Chupke (2001) which was average performer at the box office.
In 2002, she was the leading actress in Dil Hai Tumhara. This film marked an important milestone in her career. Although the film did not do well at the box office, her role as an adopted daughter was much appreciated and her performance was well acclaimed. Consequently, she became sought-after by some of the biggest filmmakers in the following years.
In 2003, Zinta had a special and influential year in her career. She was the female lead in three of the year's highest grossing films: The Hero: Love Story of a Spy which is considered as the most expensive Hindi film ever made, Koi... Mil Gaya and Kal Ho Naa Ho. She won many awards for her role as Naina in Kal Ho Naa Ho. Her performance in the film also won her the Filmfare Best Actress Award. This was followed in 2004 by the moderately successful film Lakshya (2004) which was the fourth highest grossing film of the year, and for which she received mixed reviews and the box office hit Veer-Zaara (2004). Veer-Zaara was her second highest grossing film in a row, and marked her entry into Yash Raj Productions, which is considered to be one of the biggest production houses in the Bollywood industry. All these achievements promoted her as one of the biggest stars in the industry.
She had two releases in 2005: Khullam Khulla Pyaar Karen and Salaam Namaste. The former received poor reviews at the box office, while the latter did fairly well in India and was one of the biggest hits overseas.
Zinta was welcomed with similar success the following year in 2006. Her first release Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna released in August 2006 and became one of the biggest box office hits. Her most recent film Jaan-E-Mann performed poorly at the box office.
Popularity
In 2000 Zinta was already popular. Her trademark has been her dimple, and She was known for her strong and different roles. Roles like the CBI officer in Sangharsh, the teenage single mother in Kya Kehna were very different from the typical roles made by actresses in that point of time.
In 2003, she was placed at No.1 on the Rediff's 'Top Bollywood Female Stars'.. In the following years, she was placed at number 2 three years in a row (2004-2006). Likewise, she was ranked number two on the Filmfare "Top Actresses" list (2003-2004) and number three later on (2005-2006). She was also on the Rediff list of 'Bollywood's Most Beautiful Actresses', and listed #41 by UK magazine Eastern Eye one of "Asia's Sexiest Women" (Sept/ 2006). Today, According to BoxOfficeIndia.com, Preity has the biggest success as an actress among the other Bollywood actresses, having the highest success ratio of 65%. She has 7 major hits, in her nearly 30 films.. After Aishwarya Rai, she is also the second highest paid in India, along with Rani Mukherjee.
On January 9, 2007, she was mentioned on segment "We The Mediator" of popular T.V. show The Colbert Report. Host Stephen Colbert mentioned her as an important name in Bollywood, while in character, mocked the media coverage of the alleged feud between Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan and stated, "If Preity Zinta is at the party, you better fucking show up!" She was also on the cover of the first issue of Marie Claire magazine to be sold in India.
Zinta has worked with the biggest stars in the Indian industry, including four times with Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Rani Mukerji.
She was also offered a role in the expensive foreign film Marigold, but turned it down.
Moreover, Zinta is very popular in the Middle East countries, like Afganistan. Her portraits became covers of mirrors of Kabul's beauty salons and music and video shops and restaurants, along with other Bollywood stars such as Sharukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit. She is also famous in Europe in countries such as Russia and Holland
Personal life
Zinta is currently dating the Bombay Dyeing heir, Ness Wadia. They appear to be very much in love, and there is a lot of speculation whether the two will marry soon. There were also rumours circulating that the pair had split up, but Zinta put an end to these rumours when she appeared hand-in-hand with Ness at a recent award function.. Gossip has also linked her with many other Bollywood stars, but Zinta has strongly denied all these rumours.
She narrowly escaped death twice in late 2004, once after an explosion at a Temptation concert in Colombo, and later in the Indian Ocean Tsunami.
Previously, when she was not shooting she used to return to her native town Shimla. Zinta recently moved into her own home in Mumbai, which she bought in mid-2005. Her home is situated in Bandra. She has two dogs called Junior and Lola.
Her good friends in the industry include Yash Chopra, Rekha, Aishwarya Rai, Karan Johar, Abhishek Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan and Gauri Khan. Her very close friends are Hrithik Roshan and his wife Suzanne Khan Roshan. Her best friend out of the film industry, is Shagun Sharma, who has been her best friend since early childhood.
Controversies
In 2003, Zinta was a witness in the Bharat Shah case and his links to the Mumbai mafia. She stuck by her statement that she received a threatening phone call from the mafia while shooting the film Chori Chori Chupke Chupke (2000). She was given police protection and was forced to stay out of the public eye for months. Many other celebrities including Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan were witnesses in the case but they soon retracted their statements. Zinta was the only witness not to have turned hostile.
In 2006, Zinta's boyfriend Ness Wadia was reported to have beaten up some construction workers in her building. The rumours also reported that a woman was critically injured and a child was hurt. Zinta was very angry at hearing these rumours, and had repeatedly shouted at the media very much about the incident, claiming it wasn't true. Zinta even offered 1 crore to whoever could find an injured woman. The press came up with no findings, and this rumour was considered to be false.
Actress and Singer Suchitra Krishnamurthy has blamed Preity Zinta for her divorce with Shekhar Kapur, alleging that Preity was having an affair with her husband. Preity denied all the accusations saying that Suchitra is unstable.
Commitments
Zinta joined a group of top stars (Shahrukh Khan, Rani Mukerji, Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Rampal, and Priyanka Chopra) in the Temptation 2004 concert, which was a huge international success.
In May 2006 she and Karan Johar received an invitation to represent Bollywood at the Cannes Film Festival. They took this opportunity to promote Johar's latest film Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna.
In 2006 She toured again with stage shows. She participated and performed in the successful Heat 2006 concert around the world, along with Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan, Sushmita Sen and Celina Jaitley.
In 2007, She co-hosted the 52nd Filmfare Awards ceremony, along with Shahrukh Khan, Karan Johar and Juhi Chawla.
Zinta has also written three columns for BBC South Asia.
Contributions
In 2005, along with other Bollywood stars, Preity performed at the HELP! Telethon Concert to help raise money for the victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake.
Zinta donated her winnings, from her 2007 appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati to the Shimla District Red Cross Society in Himachel Pradesh, along with Rani Mukherjee. She donated Rs 25 lakhs to the society in support of its welfare activities.
