Preity Zinta (hindi : प्रीति ज़िंटा, prononcé /Priti Zineta/), née le 31 janvier 1975 à Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, dans le nord de l'Inde, est une actrice indienne.

Elle est apparue dans des films hindis de Bollywood, ainsi que dans des productions en télougou, panjabi et anglais. Après être ressortie diplômée en psychologie criminelle de l'université de Delhi, elle débute au cinéma face à Shahrukh Khan et Manisha Koirala dans la romance dramatique Dil Se en 1998, recevant pour l'occasion le Filmfare Award du meilleur espoir féminin. Elle est également reconnue deux ans plus tard pour son rôle de jeune mère célibataire dans Kya Kehna. Elle remporte finalement le Filmfare Award de la meilleure actrice en 2004 pour son interprétation dans le drame Kal Ho Naa Ho de Nikhil Advani. Ses autres films à succès appartiennent à des genres aussi différents que le film fantastique Koi... Mil Gaya (qui reste son plus gros succès commercial), le drame romantique Veer-Zaara de Yash Chopra ou encore Salaam Namaste et Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. Sa variété de personnages, palette de jeunes femmes de caractère en total opposition avec les stéréotypes de l'héroïne traditionnelle, font de Preity Zinta une des plus grandes actrices de Bollywood.

Biographie

Zinta used to visit her native town Shimla when she was not busy in shooting. In 2006, she moved into her own home in Mumbai. She does not identify with any particular religion. In an interview with The Times of India, she comments, "I believe in good deeds, in karma, I don't believe in going to temples. For me, religion is very personal. It's all about having faith ... We have heard and read that all religions are equal. Now I am increasingly believing in this." She narrowly escaped death twice in late 2004: first after an explosion at a Temptation concert in Colombo, Sri Lanka; and second during the Indian Ocean earthquake.

Zinta has been the subject of several controversies. In 2003, as a witness in the Bharat Shah case, she testified against the Indian mafia. Bharat Shah, the financer of one of her films, Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, was arrested in 2000 for having connections with Chhota Shakeel, a Mumbai underworld boss. Unlike several of her colleagues, Zinta repeated in court her earlier statement that she had received extortion threats from the mafia during the shooting of the film. After her testimony, she was given witness protection and was forced to stay out of the public eye for two months. Thirteen other witnesses before her, including celebrities Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan, were witnesses in the case but later retracted their earlier statements. Zinta was the only witness who did not become hostile to the prosecution; the nation responded positively to her actions. Consequently, she was the first recipient of Godfrey's Mind of Steel Award at the annual Red and White Bravery Awards, given to her for the "courageous act" of standing against the Mumbai Underworld. On receiving the award, she said, "To be brave is not to be fearless. It is when you fear and you get over it, then you can be called brave. I am human. It is not that I fear nothing. But getting over a fear is a continuous process and I have been successful so far." Since 2006, Zinta has been the brand ambassador for the Godfrey Phillips Bravery awards.



Tabloids have often linked Zinta romantically with other Bollywood stars, but she has strongly denied any such rumours. In 2000, Zinta began dating model Marc Robinson. They separated the following year, and according to Zinta remained on good terms. Asked in Filmfare about their break-up, she spoke of "very, very fond memories of the times we were together and I'd like to keep it to that". Zinta dated the Bombay Dyeing heir, businessman Ness Wadia from February 2005 until May 2009. Their relationship was often reported on by the media, with frequent speculation about an engagement or a break-up. On June 13, 2014, Zinta filed a complaint to the Mumbai police against Ness Wadia alleging he had molested, threatened and abused her at an IPL match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on 30 May. Wadia has denied the allegations.

In March 2007, Zinta was involved in a scandal when actress and singer Suchitra Krishnamurthy cited her as the cause of her divorce from Shekhar Kapur, alleging that Zinta was having an affair with him. Although initially silent on the issue, after another accusation by Krishnamurthy, Zinta retorted, "It is unfortunate that I am bearing the brunt of someone else's paranoia. She's clearly unstable and I wish her a speedy recovery." She issued a statement that she had met Kapur only five times in ten years and publicly demanded that he step forward and clear her of the accusation. Thereafter, the controversy came to an end.
