Salman Khan Congratulates Preity Zinta on Cricket Team's Success; Fans Hail Tweet as "Best Sequel" in 12 Years Bollywood actor Salman Khan took to social media to congratulate actress Preity Zinta on her cricket team’s recent victory, sparking a wave of nostalgia among fans. In a tweet, Khan praised Zinta’s team for their performance, writing, “Well done Zinta, Congratulations Zinta, Team is playing well… @realpreityzinta.” The post quickly gained traction, with many fans drawing parallels to a 2014 tweet Khan had shared, in which he humorously asked, “Zinta's team won kya?” The comparison led to widespread reactions, with some calling the latest tweet “the best sequel released after 12 years” and others joking, “Tiger Zinta hai.” The nostalgic response highlighted the enduring bond between Khan and Zinta, who have been close friends since their early days in Bollywood. The duo starred together in several films, including the romantic drama Chori Chori Chupke Chupke (2001) and Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega (2000). Their friendship has remained strong over the years, with both continuing to work in the industry and maintain a public rapport. Khan’s recent tweet also reignited interest in his upcoming projects. The actor is set to begin filming his next film, directed by Vamshi Paidipally, on April 18, 2026. Reports indicate that Khan will be seen in a leaner physique for the role, with fans noting a shift from his clean-shaven look to a stubbled appearance. The film, which marks Khan’s collaboration with Paidipally, is expected to be a major release. Meanwhile, Zinta is preparing to debut in Lahore 1947, a historical drama co-starring Sunny Deol, Shabana Azmi, Ali Fazal, and Karan Deol. The film’s music is composed by AR Rahman, with lyrics penned by Javed Akhtar.#salman_khan #preity_zinta #chori_chori_chupke_chupke #har_dil_jo_pyar_karega #lahore_1947
