Preity Zinta Slams Clickbait Video Claiming She Ignored Aamir Khan
A video of an actress named Preity Zinta went viral online.
In the video, she walked past another actor named Aamir Khan without saying hello.
Some people on social media thought she was ignoring him on purpose.
But Preity said that is not true at all.
She explained that she was in a hurry, trying to find her way through photographers, and simply did not see him.
She said making videos like that to create drama is not cool.
She also said she has lots of love and respect for Aamir.
The two were at a TV show set to promote their new movie called Batwara 1947.
The movie is about a family during the Partition of India in 1947.
It is coming out in movie theaters on August 14.
The movie is special because it is Preity's first film in eight years.
Preity Zinta hit back at a viral paparazzi video that suggested she 'ignored' Aamir Khan during Batwara 1947 promotions.
She called the clip 'clickbait content,' saying she didn't see Aamir because she was rushing to shoot shots inside and catch a flight.
Zinta added that she has 'a LOT of love & respect' for Aamir Khan and criticized the page for promoting negativity.
The video was filmed at the set of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18, where the stars were promoting Batwara 1947.
Batwara 1947, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and set during the 1947 Partition, releases in theatres on August 14 and marks Zinta's return after eight years.

Indian film actress
“This kind of clickbait content is not cool. I didn’t see Aamir as I was in a rush to shoot some shots inside and then catch a flight for Batwara 1947 promotions. Next time pls don’t expect me to stop and take pictures if your intent is to promote any kind of negativity! I have a LOT of love & respect for Aamir, so this is not in good taste.”
