New Delhi: Making a comeback is next to impossible in the Hindi film industry, especially for heroines. However, there are actresses who carefully plan their every move to recapture the hearts of their fans. Preity Zinta is returning to films after four years with director Prem Raj's 'Ishkq In Paris'.
Technically, Preity hasn't done any film as lead since 'Heroes' in 2008. But, this time she is determined to leave a mark on the audience's mind. The actress says, "Shooting this film was not easy. It was a risk. But it was an incredible experience because I was involved in it since the inception. There was so much work on the sets because I was producing it also. I had to take care of every aspect besides my job as a scriptwriter and lead actress".
'Ishkq In Paris' also stars Rhehan Malliek and Isabelle Adjani. Produced under the banner of PZNZ Media, 'Ishkq In Paris' faced a lot of difficulties from the very beginning. Prem Raj had to fight a battle with cancer while the film was under production, "No one from Bollywood was there by my side as I don't know much people here. I am close to Preity and Salman. They both know everything about my life. They are my genuine friends."
He is thankful to Salman Khan and Preity Zinta to stand by his side in the moments of crisis, "He is a genuine guy, he is not fake. When I was going through
