Actor Preity Zinta took to her Instagram to share with her fans two incidents that shook her recently. First was when how a man in a wheelchair kept following her even as her car started moving. The actor lashed out at the photographers present on the scene who laughed at the incident. “The photographers found this incident funny. Instead of helping us they filmed & laughed. NO ONE told him not to follow the car or harass us as anyone could have gotten hurt. Had there been an accident, I would have been blamed,” she wrote.
Preity clarified that she had a plane to catch and did not have any cash on her. She added, “Over the years he has harassed me for money and I have given it to him when I could. This time when he asked for money I said sorry today I have no cash, just a credit card. The lady with me gave him some money from her purse. He threw it back at her cuz it wasn’t enough & started getting aggressive. As u can see he followed us for some time & got more aggressive.”
The other incident was when a stranger walked up to her daughter and wanted to take her photo. The actor, who is married with US based Gene Goodenough, said, “When we politely asked her not to she walked away, then suddenly scooped my daughter in her arms & planted a big wet kiss next to her mouth & ran off saying what a cute baby. This woman lives in an elite building & happened to be in the garden where my kids were playing.”
She added, “Most importantly my children are NOT part of a package deal & are not meant to be preyed on so please Leave my kids alone & don’t come to them for photos or touch/grab them. They are infants & need to be treated like infants,not celebrities. ” Zinta and husband Gene Goodenough welcomed their twins– Jai Zinta Goodenough & Gia Zinta Goodenough in 2021.
Preity got a shout-out from her industry friends like Priyanka Chopra, Hrithik Roshan.
