Preity Zinta’s no photo rule for kids

During an AMA session on X (formerly Twitter), a user asked Preity, "What’s one thing most fans don’t know about her.

Responding to the question, Preity shared, “I hate taking pictures in temples, early in the morning after a flight, in bathrooms and during security checks ! Asking me for a photo is the best way to get a photo unless you are asking for pictures in the above situations”.

“Taking my kids pictures will bring out my Kali avatar otherwise I’m a happy person. Don’t start making videos without my permission - it’s actually very irritating - Just ask me politely & please leave my kids alone (folded hand emoji and heart emoji),” she added.

Wrapping up the chat, Preity wrote, “Thanks everyone for another fun Pzchat ! I enjoy these chats more than any interview cuz the questions are either amazing or crazy weird. I’d also like to request the media to either quote my full reply or not use the quote at all ! Just to let everyone know I didn’t slam anyone in this chat nor did anyone piss me off ! I’m old enough to understand there are different types of people in the world and I’m a big girl - I can handle all types of comments (heart emoji) Interesting conversations/comments stay with me while any negativity goes through a quick mental delete. Ok bye now and if I have spammed people’s timelines with this chat then oops ! I did it again”.
