Single and loving it: Preity Zinta

Actor Preity Zinta is back in the limelight and this time it is not for her philanthropic work or for her films, but for the constant buzz in her love-life. She was recently spotted with a foreigner twice the same fortnight leading to fresh speculations on the new man (she was earlier linked to cricketers Yuvraj Singh, Brett Lee, hotelier Vikram Chatwal) in her life.

When asked, Zinta says that the speculative reports had her in splits. In her characteristic outspoken way, she says, “Am I not allowed to go to a party with friends anymore without being linked to someone? It’s absolutely ridiculous! Just because I am single, people have been speculating and linking me with men I get seen with. I am single, and I am totally loving it.”

So what about the man she was seen with at a recent party? “Both men she was seen with are friends and producers. She attended an event with the French producer in the morning along with another friend, but no one seems to notice that. Zinta is in her element and focusing on her career,” a close friend comes to the actress’s defence.

After a two-year self-imposed break, the actress is gearing up to get back to films. And she finds it amusing that her doing films is being called a ‘comeback’. “Was I ever gone, for people to say that I am making a comeback?” asks Zinta adding, “I am very much around. I just got busy with my cricket team and went abroad for a short business administration course. I have not been seen in films as I didn’t have the time to sign any. Now, you will see a lot more of me. I have been busy with my reality show and am  kicked about it. I have also been going through a couple of scripts so some exciting announcements are around the corner.”
