Actress Preity Zinta, of ‘Dil Chahta Hai’, ‘Koi Mil Gaya’, ‘Lakshya’, ‘Veer-Zaara’ fame, has hit back at Indian National Congress’ Kerala unit accusing them of cooking lies and putting them out in the public domain.
INC Kerala had earlier written on X, formerly Twitter, “She gave her social media accounts to BJP and got 18 Cr written off and the bank collapsed last week. Depositors are on the streets for their money”. The actress shot back at the political party without mincing her words as she accussed them of propagating “false news”.
She wrote, “No I operate my social media accounts myself and shame on you for promoting FAKE NEWS! No one wrote off anything or any loan for me. I’m shocked that a political party or their representative is promoting fake news & indulging in vile gossip & click baits using my name & images”. She further mentioned, “For the record a loan was taken and FULLY PAID BACK over 10 years ago. Hope this clarifies and helps so there are no misunderstandings in the future (sic)”.
