Preity Zinta seems to surrounded by controversies often these days. After the much hyped case of the actress accusing her former boyfriend Ness Wadia of abusing her, Preity Zinta now seems to have created uproar of sorts on the micro blogging site Twitter.
Preity Zinta, who was excited to watch Bang Bang starring Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif, encountered an unpatriotic incident while she was at a renowned multiplex in Mumbai. While it is a well known fact that multiplexes screen the national anthem before a film begins, Preity Zinta was very miffed that a man from the audience did not stand up during the national anthem. Terming this as rather disrespectful, the actress spoke about the incident on Twitter, saying "#bangbang be4 Bang Bang! Had2 throw a guy out of the Theater as he refused 2stand up4 our National Anthem! Can u believe it?Now movie time."

Interestingly, the film in which Prem Raj makes his acting debut is a bi-lingual.

It seems that writer Abbas Tyrewala has decided to take on an opponent who won't take allegations lying down. Preity Zinta who has been accused of non-payment of dues by Tyrewala for his writing work in her ill-fated production Ishkq In Paris not only denies owing any money to Tyrewala, she also accuses him of non-delivery of required work. Shooting in Udaipur with Sunny Deol for Bhaiyyaji Superhit, Preity, known to be absolutely above-board in her professional dealings, reacted saying, "He (Abbas Tyrewala) has lied. He has deposited a cheque that was supposed to be used only if and when he did the work required for our film. This, he did not do. So we don't owe him any money at all." Preity further states that Tyrewala didn't possess any written document regarding his agreement with Preity's production house. "He signed no papers, did no work for us and yet...

Preity Zinta whose last film Ishkq In Paris sunk without a trace at the box office now finds herself in trouble of a different kind. Apparently, a non bailable warrant has been issued against the actress. This comes in connection with a bounced cheque case, for which a complaint had been filed by scriptwriter Abbas Tyrewala. In the complaint filed, Tyrewala has accused Zinta for issuing a cheque for Rs. 18 lakhs which bounced. Following this a Mumbai court had summoned the actress in the past. However due to her inability to appear before the court four consecutive times the court on Thursday, issued the non-bailable warrant.

After doing a cameo with Saif Ali Khan in the Us for a film entitled Happy Ending, Preity Zinta is back in Mumbai "for good". She has resumed shooting in India with Neerraj Pathak's Bhaiyyaji Superhit where in her own words she has a "damned interesting role" opposite Sunny Deol. For the first time, Preity gets to play a bonafide rustic character. And she's working hard to clean herself of the subtle American twang she has acquired during her frequent visits to the Us where her brother lives. Last seen in her home-production Ishkq In Paris, the film's failure left Preity disappointed but undeterred. Now back in the thick of things Preity says, "I've been expanding my horizons, exploring new areas of work-related activity. That is difficult for a lot of my colleagues in Bollywood to understand. For them cinema is the sum-total of their activity. I didn't want my...

Preity Zinta's last film Ishkq In Paris failed to make an impact at the Box Office. Though she has been off the Bollywood scene for a while, the actress managed to do some interesting cameos in movies like Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and Main Aurr Mrs Khanna (2009) in the past.
And now, Preity will be seen with none other than Saif Ali Khan in his next rom-com title Happy Ending. It's a well known fact that Preity shares a fantastic rapport with Saif and hence has agreed to a special appearance in the film.
Happy Ending is produced by Illuminati Films and will star Saif and Ileana D'Cruz in lead. The film will be directed by Raj and Krishna Dk.

Preity Zinta’s ‘Ishkq In Paris’ has turned out to be a colossal disaster. If the opening was extremely poor and there was no escalation over the weekend, what shocked further was to see further slide in (already) low collections over the weekdays. With rapid decline in footfalls, this is one of those rare films with a notable lead actress to see such a poor response at the box office. This resulted in first week collections of a mere 2 crore which are so low that they would have shocked even the most pessimistic people connected to Bollywood.
Agreed that the film was delayed and there was no saleable hero either. Still, given the fact that the end product had reasonably decent credentials, one would have expected somewhat better collections for the film. Not that the eventual box office outcome would have been different in a major way but still at...

Now in theaters is Prem Raj Soni’s Ishkq in Paris starring Preity Zinta. The romantic comedy is, according to the director, race-y, pace-y and fun, much like the city it is set in – Paris.
Do Ajnabi, Ek Raat, Sheher Paris. Akash (Rhehan Malliek) and Ishkq (Preity Zinta), two complete strangers, after having met on a train from Rome to Paris, end up spending the evening together in the romantic city.
However, owing to a no baggage pact set by Ishkq, the two part ways the next morning without a proper goodbye. Ishkq, being the strong-headed independent girl, moves on, while Akash ends up falling for the girl he spent the evening with. They cross paths once again in Paris but will there be Ishkq In Paris?

The major drawback of Ishkq In Paris perhaps lies in its inability to explain the reason in the story which forced Preity Zinta into commitment phobic, as the argument in the form of one flimsy story to buttress it does not sound convincing. In the same manner how Akaash falls for Ishkq is also hazy and being positioned as a rom-com this aspect needed to be dealt with some detail Read More...

She is one of the best actresses in Hindi cinema, and you have seen her in some brilliant films, like Dil Se (her debut), Koi Mil Gaya, Lakshya, Kal Ho Na Ho, Veer Zaara (a personal favorite), and so many more. Of course, we are talking about the great Preity Zinta. The lovely actress has been missing from the silver screen for several years because she took a cricket sabbatical, but now fans can rejoice because she is back with Ishkq in Paris. Preity not only stars in the film, she also produced the rom-com, which is directed by Prem Soni.

With Ipl Finals this weekend, there is a window of opportunity that has opened for ‘Ishkq In Paris’ and ‘Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke’ to find a release as no other major star studded film is hitting the screens. While former is a romantic comedy cum drama in Paris, latter is an out and out comedy set in one night. Both films have been in news for some time and now are eventually arriving in theatres.
Since there is no major competition from any of the earlier releases (‘Aashiqui 2′ is nearing its close while ‘Aurangzeb’ isn’t expected to cover major distance in the second weekend), the stage is set for both films to bring in some audience. However it is content that would do the talking here since one doesn’t really look forward to opening of any sorts doing the trick.

Film: "Ishkq In Paris"; Cast: Preity Zinta, Rhehan Malliek, and Isabelle Adjani; Director: Prem Raj; Rating: ****
Love, as the sages say, is a many-splendoured thing. You can look at it as an occasion for stress and heartbreak (which is why we fall, never rise, in love). Or love can be a celebration of life.
Director Prem Raj's debut film "Main Aur Mrs Khanna" took a quaint capricious look at love during times of adultery. On this occasion ('Ishkq In Paris') he takes flight in a Parisian paradise where two strangers, both single attractive and commit-phobic, spend the night together.
No, not doing what you think in your dirty.

Originally slated for an October release, the film will now officially be open for all to see in cinemas on 2 November 2012.

Preity Zinta who is getting ready for the release of her much-anticipated debut as a producer in Ishkq In Paris, is pretty shaken by the latest spot-fixing scandals to hit the cricket Ipl business. Taking a deep breath she says, "Look, I'd still like to give the accused the benefit of the doubt. But if the allegations are true then it's really really sad for the country, for the game and for the Ipl. So much faith is placed on these players. I don't think they've any business betraying us like this. If the allegations are true then let me tell you the Bcci is going to take very stern action against these players. At the same time we can't write off the game just because there might be some rotten eggs in the basket. " Preity admits there have been times when she has felt out of place in the Ipl.

Preity Zinta’s much awaited Ishkq in Paris, which was to release in 2012, is now finally releasing on 24th May. The delay in the release was due to her director Prem Raj’s ill health.

Although the delay did affect her financially, Preity said she could afford it. Also, there had been rumours about the film not having buyers. Clearing the air about these reports, Preity said,” I never pay heed to such rumours. The only way I can prove myself is by doing good work and I focus on that. I will be producing again and do better work.

Salman Khan is known to be extra-thoughtful about friends. When he heard about director Prem Raj's serious illness, he immediately offered every help, financial and emotional, to the deeply moved director. Prem had directed Salman's home-production Main Aurr Mrs Khanna which bombed. The film had left a bitter taste in the mouths of all concerned. Yet, Salman stood by the film and the director. Undeterred by that failure, Salman made a guest appearance in Prem Raj's new film Ishkq In Paris which was to open on November 2 but is now shrouded in uncertainty due to the director being detected with cancer.
