Preity Zinta denies the loan scandal

Preity Zinta took strong objection to the news article published by MoneyLife that she got a loan write-off from a bank that resulted in the collapse of the cooperative bank and the depositors being on the streets. Based on this report, the Congress Party made allegations that Preity Zinta gave her social media handles to the BJP in return for the favor provided by the government. 

“She gave her social media accounts to BJP and got 18 Cr written off and the bank collapsed last week. Depositors are on the streets for their money,” the Kerala Congress accused in a post.

Preity Zinta, who has acted in films such as “Rajakumarudu,” “Premante Idera,” “Dil Chahta Hai,” and “Dil Se,” stated that the allegations were completely unfounded. 

She expressed shock over the spread of such misinformation by a political party. In the past, Zinta has spoken of pursuing legal action against false information.

“No I operate my social media accounts my self and shame on you for promoting FAKE NEWS ! No one wrote off anything or any loan for me. I’m shocked that a political party or their representative is promoting fake news & indulging in vile gossip & click baits using my name & images. For the record a loan was taken and FULLY PAID BACK – over 10 years ago. Hope this clarifies and helps so there are no misunderstandings in the future,” she wrote.

She also slammed the famous journalist Sucheta Dalal for publishing a baseless report.

“So much misinformation going around but thank god for social media and thank god for X ! All through my career I have seen so many so respected journalists get so many stories completely wrong & never have the decency to correct the story or apologise. I have also gone to court and spent a tonne of money fighting cases that go on & on & on. I think it’s time we start holding them responsible right here so there is some accountability in the future. I’m definitely going to start naming all these journalists that write articles without following up or investigating the stories. If you don’t value my reputation then sorry I don’t value yours @suchetadalal,” she wrote.

She added, “Next time pls call me and find out if the story is true or not before mentioning my name. Just like you,  I have spent years working hard and building a reputation so if you don’t care about mine I don’t care about yours. I’m done being a bigger person. This ends here.”
