 | | Preity ZintaPreity Zinta shot to fame as the refreshing, cool, wet model in the Liril ad. She also modeled for Perk and her dimpled smile won the hearts of millions.
Preity never thought she would be an actress. When she was studying Criminal Psychology in Bombay University, Shekhar Kapoor saw her in the Liril ad and liked her so much that he instantly decided that the next film he would announce would have her in the lead. However 'Tara Rum Pum' never got made and is still pending.
Preity's first release was Mani Ratnam's 'Dil Se'. The film was a hit and won Preity numerous accolades.
Later, her performance in Abbas-Mustan's 'Soldier' confirmed that Preity was here to stay.
Her varied roles in 'Chori Chori Chupke Chupke' and 'Dil Chahta Hai' were greatly appreciated and that has made her an actress to be reckoned with in Bollywood.
Her screen presence, charm and down to earth nature has made her the favorite actress of almost all the directors and producers, and has solidified her place in the hearts of the movie-going public.
