Preity Zinta Reveals Raising Her Children Hindu, Addresses Politics

Preity Zinta, known for her roles in Bollywood hits, married Gene Goodenough in 2016 and subsequently moved to Los Angeles. In a recent AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on X (formerly Twitter), she candidly answered fan questions, addressing both her family's religious practices and political rumors.

Zinta emphasized her desire to ensure her children, Jai and Gia, retain their Indian heritage while being raised in a foreign country. As her husband is agnostic, they have chosen to bring them up as Hindus. She expressed frustration over the criticism and politicization of this decision.

Addressing speculation about joining the BJP, Zinta firmly denied any political ambitions. She clarified that expressing pride in her Indian identity and visiting religious sites does not equate to her entering politics. She attributed the rumors to the judgmental nature of social media users.

Zinta is set to return to the big screen in the upcoming film "Lahore 1947," starring alongside Sunny Deol and produced by Aamir Khan Productions. The film also features music by AR Rahman and lyrics by Javed Akhtar.

No, Preity Zinta has denied any plans to join politics or the BJP.

Preity Zinta and her husband are raising their children as Hindu, to ensure they remember they are half Indian.
