When Preity Zinta praised Akshay Kumar for his gentleman side, recalling incident from Sangharsh shoot; 'Jab main newcomer thi...'

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for Hollywood-esque drama and real-life camaraderie, I must commend Preity Zinta for her remarkable journey and the relationships she’s nurtured within the Bollywood industry. Her collaborations with some of the most iconic figures in Bollywood, including the three Khans and Akshay Kumar, are a testament to her talent and charm.


In 1998, Preity Zinta first appeared on the big screen alongside Shah Rukh Khan and Manisha Koirala in the film Dil Se, where she took on a supporting role under director Mani Ratnam. That same year, she also played a leading role opposite Bobby Deol in Soldier. Throughout her career, Preity has worked with all three of Bollywood’s major stars – SRK, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan. Additionally, she teamed up with another superstar, Akshay Kumar, on the 90s film Sangharsh. Preity has spoken highly of Akshay in the past, describing him as a true gentleman, and reminiscing about her early acting days while working together on Sangharsh.

In an episode of her YouTube show, Up Close & Personal with PZ, Preity Zinta discussed her early career days working alongside Akshay Kumar. She openly expressed her admiration, affection, and respect for Akshay, noting that he maintained professionalism towards her as a newcomer in the movie industry.

Preity Zinta, sitting alongside Akshay Kumar during the show, mentioned that he never gave her the impression of being a novice or behaved in a superior manner as a star. To clarify, Preity revealed that Action Star Kumar (Khiladi Kumar) didn’t criticize her for stumbling over lines during their scenes together.

Actress from Dil Chahta Hai reminisced about the time they filmed a scene from the 1999 movie Sangharsh. Preity Zinta recalled that Akshay Kumar made her feel at ease during filming a sequence of the song on the set of Sangharsh.

Preity explained, “Since you were lying there, I found myself approaching and stooping down because my blouse was becoming loose. You then grabbed it from behind and restrained me, and afterwards, we captured the scene.

She noted that the people we work with in movies, often labeled as “heroes,” are not only heroes to the audience, but they can also be heroes to the actresses as well.

In time, actress Preity Zinta collaborated with Akshay Kumar on the 2006 movie “Jaan-E-Mann,” produced by Shirish Kunder. Salman Khan was the main star of this production as well.
