Early life and background

Born on January 31, 1975 in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, Zinta hails from a Hindu Rajput family of Rohru in Shimla district.^[7] Her father, Durganand Zinta was an officer in the Indian Army. Durganand Zinta passed away when Preity was 13 in a car accident which also involved her mother, Nilprabha Zinta. Her mother survived, but was severely injured and consequently bedridden for two years.^[8] Zinta has two brothers, Deepankar Zinta and Manish Zinta, a year older and a year younger, respectively; she is very close to both.

Zinta, a self-confessed tomboy earlier in life, was primarily influenced by her father and, as a child groomed in an army household, learnt the principles of discipline and punctuality.^[9] She studied at the Convent of Jesus and Mary boarding school in Delhi and returned home only on vacations. The infrequent visits home did not deter her from pursuing her education at a boarding school, however, as she commented in an interview with The Times of India, "I didn't regret spending time away from them because I had a perfect set of friends."^[9] As a student she exhibited a love of literature, particularly William Shakespeare and poetry. At one point she tried writing poetry herself, and, according to her, "I soon realised what I wrote was rubbish. So I put all my literary pursuits in a drawer, and gave up the idea of ever becoming a poet."^[9] Whilst she was a good student, she was also interested in sports, regularly playing basketball; as an adult she continues to remain physically active and fit.^[7] Zinta describes her father's death as one of her most terrible experiences: "I can never forget the scene with my brothers all crying. I felt so lost and helpless then. I did not know what to do."^[7] According to her, it was a significant turning point in her life, as she was forced to grow up.^[8] For other uses, see Tomboy (disambiguation). ...

Her first advert for Perk chocolates happened purely by chance when she met an advert director at a friend's birthday party; he informed her that he had written an ad script which would be ideal for her, and insisted that she attend the audition. According to Zinta, "I was apprehensive, I thought what harm could come from just auditioning – there would be five people there and why would anybody pick me? Only, instead of five, there were fifty, and I got selected after saying just two lines with the chocolate in hand." She later appeared in several catalogues and took part in numerous other commercials, such as that of Liril.^[8] Liril is a popular soap brand sold in a large degree, in India, and Asia, as well as a few places in Europe. ...

Film career

Early career

In 1997, Zinta met director and producer Shekhar Kapur when she accompanied a friend to an audition and was asked to audition, too. After seeing her audition, Kapur insisted that she become an actress. Zinta was originally scheduled to make her screen debut in Kapur's Tara Rum Pum Pum opposite Hrithik Roshan, but the filming was cancelled and never took off; Kapur later recommended that Mani Ratnam sign her for his next film, Dil Se.^[8] Shekhar Kapur, born 6 December 1945 is a renowned film director and producer from India. ...

Zinta initially appeared in Kundan Shah's Kya Kehna, but its release was delayed until 2000.^[10] The delay of another film, Soldier, meant that she made her acting debut with Dil Se (1998) opposite Shahrukh Khan and Manisha Koirala. By Indian standards, the film was an unusual launch for a newcomer, as she had a small role of only twenty minutes long. However, it was eventually turned out as unusual particularly in the light of the forthright character she played, and her portrayal of a middle class Delhi girl was appreciated, earning her a Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award nomination.^[10] She then played her first leading role in the action drama Soldier, which became one of the year's biggest hits.^[11] Dil Se and Soldier were considered her breakthrough roles and she won the Filmfare Best Female Debut Award for her performances in both films.^[12] Kundan Shah (born 1947) is an Indian film director and writer. ...

Zinta then tried her hand in the Tollywood film industry, and starred in two Telugu films, Premante Idera (1998) opposite Venkatesh, and Raja Kumarudu (1999) opposite Mahesh Babu. This was followed in 1999 by Tanuja Chandra's female-oriented thriller Sangharsh, co-starring alongside Akshay Kumar. Though the film was not a box office success, it presented Zinta an opportunity to explore new avenues, and her performance as a CBI officer, a woman of strong convictions, was critically acclaimed. Film critic Anish Khanna from Planet Bollywood noted, "Preity Zinta proves with Sangharsh that she is capable of much, much, much more than the typical song and dance roles usually played to death by other actresses in her age bracket."^[13] Telugu Cinema refers to the Telugu film industry. ... “Telugu” redirects here. ...

Zinta's first release in 2000 was the delayed drama film Kya Kehna which was not expected to make an impact at the box office,^[13] but turned out to be the surprise hit of the year.^[14] The film was known for its bold social controversial theme of single parenthood and teenage pregnancy, and gained Zinta wider recognition as an actress both from the audience and from film critics.^[13] Her portrayal of a teenage single mother who tries to fight societal prejudice earned her a number of nominations, including her first nomination for Best Actress at the Filmfare.^[15] Kya Kehna (Hindi: क्या कहना, Urdu: کیا کہنا, English: What To Say) is an Indian movie, released on 19 May 2000. ...

In 2007 Zinta portrayed the character of a British Pakistani young woman, Alvira Khan, in her third Yash Raj Film, Shaad Ali's comedy Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, alongside Abhishek Bachchan, Bobby Deol and Lara Dutta.

The film did better overseas, especially in the UK.^[42] She received mixed reviews from one extreme to the other; Ashok Nayak praised her, "Preity Zinta, looks bubbling and gorgeous. The chemistry between Abhishek [Bachchan] and Preity is mind blowing. She is equally competent and gives a commendable performance."^[43] On the other hand, The Times of India criticized her, saying that "she is too plastic as the Paki-Brit girl".^[44] The term British Pakistani is used to denote a person of Pakistani ancestry or origin, who was born in or was an immigrant to the United Kingdom. ...

Later in 2007, Zinta took on a proefessional turning point in her career. She began working more with art film directors, and turned towards a neo-realistic cinema, known in India as parallel cinema, rather than mainly working on commercial cinema.^[45] She starred in her first English film, Rituparno Ghosh's The Last Lear, as a struggling theatre actress opposite Amitabh Bachchan. The film premiered at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival, and was widely received as well as earning many accolades when it was showcased at a Gala Presentation. The first reviews were positive, with one critic writing "It's great to see her doing a completely natural role. She played her role with real dignity and it was a pleasure seeing her getting back to her initial style of acting".^[46] On her first art film, Zinta said "I did think with art films that they don't pay you, they don't feed you, but I was wrong, and I'm so happy to be here".^[47] As of October 2007, she is set to star in Jahnu Barua's forthcoming film Har Pall.

But later I realised that when the lights go off there is only darkness around an actor and it is that darkness all actors fear. Dear God please give me the strength to find my way out of the darkness when the lights are no more on me."

During her years in the Indian film industry, Zinta has been the subject of media speculation and numerous controversies, which put her among the most controversial celebrities in Bollywood.^[69]

In 2000, Shah and the producer of the film, Nazim Rizvi, were arrested for having connections with Chhota Shakeel, a Mumbai underworld boss.^[70] Unlike several of her colleagues, Zinta stuck by her earliest statement in the court. She informed the court that she had received threatening phone calls from the mafia, attempting to extort money from her while shooting the film Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, who told her that she would have to bear the consequences if she did not pay up. Zinta testified that she had confided in Nazim Rizvi about the threatening incident: "He told me not to worry and that everything would be alright.

It is when you fear and you get over it, then you can be called brave. I am human. It is not that I fear nothing.

Tell me, which place in India do you have workers working in a building at 12 O'clock at night? You all put any kind of news in print in circulation and then the onus falls on us to clarify. On what basis are you putting a news item?"^[80] Zinta lectured the press on how they should conduct themselves, "Please do your homework before you report anything to the nation. You cannot target me and my boyfriend just because I am a film star."^[80] She challenged the press and offered Rs 1 million to whoever could find an injured woman.
