Preity Zinta is reportedly gearing up for a spectacular comeback in a woman-oriented film under the direction of a prominent South Indian filmmaker. The actress, who has been away from the silver screen for quite some time, touched down in Mumbai after spending several years in Los Angeles.
The news of Preity's comeback has sparked a wave of curiosity and anticipation in the film industry. While details about the project are being kept under wraps, it's said to be a powerful narrative that highlights strong female characters.
Meanwhile, Preity is set to receive an honorary doctorate from Birmingham City University (BCU) soon. She will accept the honour in recognition of her contribution to Bollywood and the business world.
After garnering critical acclaim for her roles in films like "Chori Chori Chupke Chupke" (2001), "Dil Chahta Hai" (2001), "Dil Hai Tumhaara" (2002), and "Armaan" (2003), Zinta continued to shine in the Bollywood spotlight with her noteworthy performance in "Kal Ho Naa Ho" (2003). Her success streak continued with back-to-back annual blockbusters in India, namely "Koi... Mil Gaya" (2003) and "Veer-Zaara" (2004). Zinta further earned recognition for her portrayal of independent and modern Indian women in the top-grossing productions "Salaam Namaste" (2005) and "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" (2006), making her a standout figure in both domestic and overseas markets.
