Preity Zinta pleasantly surprised friend Hrithik Roshan when she complimented him for his performance in “Kites”, which has got a drubbing at the box office.

“Hey Duggu! You looked like a god in ‘Kites’! Sigh! Saw it today! You did a great job in the movie,” Preity posted on Hrithik’s Twitter page.

Hrithik replied saying: “Hey Pree! Courageous of you complimenting me for ‘Kites’! But don’t say it too loud, somebody might hear you.”

The two have been great friends and even worked together in films like “Mission Kashmir” and “Koi… Mil Gaya”.

Preity consoled Hrithik saying: “My darling, films fail, actors don’t! Have always been proud of you since ‘Mission Kashmir’ as you are one of the brightest stars on this horizon.”

Internet addicts have found a brand new way of insulting actors – by hurling abuses on their social networking sites, blogs or even homepages.

Their accounts on Twitter started their own websites or began writing blogs.

Take the case of actor Aamir Khan. The actor recently faced one of the most venomous abuses when someone posted a message on his website questioning Aamir’s post where he talks about one of the most painful experiences of his life – his wife Kiran Rao’s miscarriage. The person inferred that it was just a publicity stunt. Without reporting the person, Aamir just said,

“Whoever you are, may God help you.”

Even actor Amitabh Bachchan has been through a similar situation.

“Yes, there are some posts and responses that are not shown on my blog. It is because they are unfit for postings,” says Amitabh.

The film has been produced by Smita Thackeray, who is daughter-in-law of Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray.

Preity Zinta, who was Thursday appointed as the goodwill ambassador for UNAIDS in India, will create awareness against AIDS along with the members of her Indian Premier League (IPL) team Kings XI Punjab.

“All our players will sport red ribbons during their matches. In our first match against Delhi Daredevils, we will take an HIV positive person to the toss to convey our message against stigma and discrimination,” Preity said here.

“Me and my team will produce a short commercial to spread awareness against the disease. I will be there, our captain Kumar Sangakkara and other players will also be there,” she added. Besides, Kings XI Punjab will donate 25 percent of the profit they will earn from selling their merchandise to UNAIDS, which will decide its usage for the betterment of HIV positive people.

On being appointed goodwill ambassador for UNAIDS, Preity said: “I have done many roles. This one is different. I am very happy.”

Rs.600 crore. An adopted daughter. 34 orphan girls. An adopting mother. Common thread: Preity Zinta.Even as the media raked up the muck on the Zinta and Ness Wadia romantic fissure, there was fresh meat for the scribe tribe to chew on.

Shandar Amrohi, scion of the legendary filmmaker Kamaal Amrohi, is locked in a fierce legal battle with his sister Rukhsar and her son Waseem, insinuating that the duo had fraudulently pledged his shares in Mahal Pictures Pvt. Ltd (that owns the renowned Kamaal Amrohi studio) to a company in Pune. The lure in question: business and property valued at over Rs 600 crore!

Able support for Shandar has been forthcoming from his sibling Tazdar Amrohi… and an unlikely, starry supporter: Preity Zinta!

Reportedly, Shandar regards Preity as his “adopted daughter” and is considering bequeathing all his share of the property to her.

Owner of Kolkata Knight Riders, Shah Rukh Khan unlike colleagues Shilpa Shetty and Preity Zinta is not blaming Pakistan cricketers for making a brouhaha over the IPL issue, instead he believes that everything could have happened respectfully.

SRK says, “I think it’s actually humiliating to me as a KKR owner that this has happened.We are known to invite everyone. We should have. If there were any issues, they should have been put on board earlier. Everything can happen respectfully.”

“I am not giving an excuse and I truly believe Pakistani players are the best T20 players in the world. They are the champions. They are wonderful. But somewhere down the line there is an issue and we cannot deny it. There is an issue, we cannot keep saying ‘Oh this was wrong’. Yes maybe the way it was done was wrong, the way it is being carried out may be wrong. But you can’t keep on saying ‘Koi issue nahi hai yaar, woh aa jate’ (There isn’t any issue, they could have come). There is an issue lets not deny it. Every day we blame Pakistan, everyday they blame us, it is an issue.”

Citing the example of Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Bollywood actress Preity Zinta Wednesday pledged to work for the welfare of widows and said they could achieve a lot if given an opportunity.

Preity, 34, became the brand ambassador of Loomba Trust that supports widows and their children around the world.

“Sonia Gandhi is a perfect example. If a woman is not stolen off her opportunities, even if she is a widow, she can do great things and achieve a lot. This is more than enough reason to say that a woman can stand shoulder to shoulder with any man anywhere in the world,” Preity said at a press conference here.

“I have always held women’s causes in India very close to my heart. I have always felt that women get a raw deal. This cause was a little more close to my heart because I lost my father when I was very young,” said Preity, who lost her father at the age of 13.

Rakesh Roshan has plans to start filming the sequel to his super hero flick, ‘Krrish’ by September 2010. Playing the title role, Hrithik Roshan will however not be romancing Priyanka Chopra in this one our sources claims.

Sources further reveal, “Roshan Sr. who will be directing the film apart from producing it, is considering Deepika Padukone to the play the lead, although there has been no confirmation. While the first film in the series ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ had Preity Zinta in the lead opposite Hrithik, ‘Krrish’ featured Priyanka Chopra. There are no plans for her to return, so it remains to be seen who would step into the leading lady’s role.”

Letting us in the secret, our source further reveals that Rakesh has zeroed down on a plotline where ‘Krrish’ battles his evil counterpart in the sequel. Apparently, Rakesh is keen on having Hrithik play a grey character ever since he saw his performance in ‘Dhoom 2’. ‘Krrish’ will be seen saving the 7 wonders of the world, which makes a perfect foil to include extensive shots of diverse foreign locations.
