Actress Preity Zinta, who is known for ‘Dil Chahta Hai’, ‘Koi… Mil Gaya’, ‘Lakshya’, ‘Veer-Zaara’ and others, has hit back at Indian National Congress’ Kerala unit accusing them of cooking lies and putting them out in the public domain.
INC Kerala had earlier written on X, formerly Twitter, “She gave her social media accounts to BJP and got 18 Cr written off and the bank collapsed last week. Depositors are on the streets for their money”.
The actress shot back at the political party without mincing her words as she accussed them of propagating “false news”.
She wrote, “No I operate my social media accounts myself and shame on you for promoting FAKE NEWS! No one wrote off anything or any loan for me. I’m shocked that a political party or their representative is promoting fake news & indulging in vile gossip & click baits using my name & images”.
She further mentioned, “For the record a loan was taken and FULLY PAID BACK – over 10 years ago. Hope this clarifies and helps so there are no misunderstandings in the future (sic)”.
Congress’ response came after the actress put out her opinion with regards to expressing love for the nation or praising PM Narendra Modi. The actress had earlier tweeted, “What’s happening to people on social media? Everyone has become so cynical. If one talks about their first chat with an AI Bot then people presume it’s a paid promotion, if you appreciate ur PM then you are a bhakt & god forbid, if you are a proud Hindu or Indian then ur an Andh Bhakt ! Let’s keep it real folks & take people for who they are & not who we think they should be ! Maybe we all need to take a chill pill and just be happy to communicate with each other. Now don’t ask me why I married Gene ? I married him cuz I love him kyuki sarhad par ek aisa shaks hai, jo mere liye aapni jaan de sakta hai, samjhe. If you know you know (sic)”. (IANS)
