Ness Wadia with Preity Zinta

The story, where Suchitra Krishnamoorthy, Shekhar Kapur and Preity Zinta play the protagonists, continues. Now Preity Zinta has decided not to take accusations of being a home-breaker, made by Suchitra, lying down. She has demanded that Shekhar Kapur step into the picture and clear her name which is being slandered by his estranged wife.

Apparently, Preity called up Shekhar Kapur and asked him to clear her name from the controversy immediately. Shekhar who was in Mumbai on Thursday to meet his daughter, was apparently very embarrassed and promised Preity that he would do the needful. "Otherwise, Preity will take some drastic action against those who are bad-mouthing her," says a close friend of Preity. "I mean, Shekhar treats Preity like a child. He has virtually seen her grow up. Surely there are better ways for an angry wife to be noticed? How would Suchitra like it if her six-year-old daughter is questioned by her friends in school about her dad and Preity? Suchitra claims Preity called her up and said not to talk in this way since she's now getting married. No such thing happened."

Preity adds, "I don't know how I've entered this controversy. I've met Shekhar perhaps five times in 10 years. He was supposed to make my launch film. But it never happened. But we kept in touch and met when he was in India. In fact, I was supposed to have been directed by Shekhar for producer Vishal Bharadwaj in a film called Mantra. That was the last time I met him."

Suchitra Krishnamoorthy's outburst has had far-reaching consequences. Among those whom she has upset, is Preity Zinta's special friend Ness Wadia who has been wondering why Suchitra has been talking in this way.

Shekhar Kapur reacts:
"There exists no relationship between Miss Preity Zinta and myself, beyond that of an acquaintance and friend. I have lived abroad for the last 12 years and have little social or professional intercourse in India anyway. I pray that all parties involved find peace, happiness and harmony in their respective lives."

Its a Subhash K Jha column,which means there's not much truth to the article,and he's as always sucking up to stars 😆

Wonder why Shekhar's "clarification" is so laconic,would have been more convinced had he vociferously refuted the accusations..A mild statement such as "There was nothing between us" seems to be too cliched and trite a line
