Preity Zinta (Hindi: प्रीति ज़िंटा, Urdu: پریتی زینتا ,) (born Preetam Singh Zinta) born 31 January 1974 is an Indian actress who appears in Bollywood movies.

Early life
Born in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, she studied at the Convent of Jesus and Mary School, Shimla. Her real name is Preetam Singh. At first she was going to do a English honours but decided to pursue psychology. She also attended Bombay University. After getting a degree in criminal psychology at the St. Bedes College, Zinta began her career as a model and commercial (ad films) actress (she was seen in Lyril's soap ad film).

Her mother was bedridden because of this incident. Zinta has two brothers, Deepanker Zinta and Manish Zinta, a year older and a year younger respectively. One of her brothers is a commissioned officer in the Indian Army.

Career
She was meant to make her acting debut with Shekhar Kapur's Tara Rum Pum Pum opposite Hrithik Roshan but the film never took off. Her first movie to be released was supposed to be Soldier but due to delay Dil Se (1998) was released first. The film was her breakthrough role and she won the Filmfare Best Debut Award for her performance. Since then her career has been that of a typical Bollywood star: not many hits but not many flops either.

In 2003, Zinta was the female lead in two of the year's highest grossing films, Koi... Mil Gaya and Kal Ho Naa Ho. She won many awards for her role as "Naina" in Kal Ho Naa Ho. Her performance got her the Filmfare Best Actress Award.Since then she has appeared in the averagely received Lakshya (2004) and the box office hit Veer-Zaara (2004) and the semi-hit Salaam Namaste (2005). Salaam Namaste turned out to be the biggest hit overseas.

She joined a group of top stars (Shahrukh Khan, Rani Mukerji, Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Rampal, and Priyanka Chopra) in the Temptation 2004 concert, which was a huge international success. In May 2006, she along with Karan Johar received an invitation to represent Bollywood at the Cannes Film Festival. They took this opportunity to promote Karan Johar's latest film Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna which Preity also stars in. Zinta has written three columns for BBC South Asia.

Personal life
She has been linked with a few of her co-stars such as Salman Khan, Abhishek Bachchan and Aamir Khan but has always dismissed them as rumours. She is currently dating Ness Wadia, the heir to the Bombay Dyeing company.

Previously, when she was not shooting she used to return to Shimla. Zinta recently moved into her own home in Mumbai, which she bought in mid-2005. Preity is a very close friend of Hrithik Roshan and his wife Suzanne Khan. She is also friends with Abhishek Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Shitanshu ec. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Shitanshu ec~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
