Preity Zinta welcomed her twins Jai and Gia with husband Gene Goodenough in 2021 via surrogacy and in a recent interview, Preity shared that she went through IVF before opting for surrogacy. Preity opened up about her IVF treatment when she was asked if her public persona of being the “sunshine person” takes a toll on her real life. The actor shared that she would sometimes want to “bang my head on the wall and cry or not talk to anybody” during that phase.
Talking to Vogue India, Preity shared, “I have good days and bad days just like everyone else. Sometimes it’s a struggle to always be happy-go-lucky in real life, especially when you’re going through a tough phase. I used to feel like that during my IVF cycles.” She added, “It was very difficult to be smiley and nice all the time. Sometimes I just wanted to bang my head on the wall and cry or not talk to anybody. So yes, it has to be a balancing act for all actors.”
In the same conversation, when Preity Zinta was asked about her comeback film Lahore 1947, the actor said that “life is not completely fair” for a woman as “the biological clock is real”. “It’s important to focus on career, but being a woman, one also needs to realise that life is not completely fair and there is no level playing ground as the biological clock is real. People forget that for women, as actors, your craft is important, you want a body of work, but family is equally important. Now that my kids are over two years old, I felt I was ready to get back to work,” she said.
In 2021, Preity announced the birth of her twins via Instagram as she wrote, “Gene & I are overjoyed & our hearts are filled with so much gratitude & with so much love as we welcome our twins Jai Zinta Goodenough & Gia Zinta Goodenough into our family. We are very excited about this new phase in our lives.” Gene and Preity got married in 2016.
Preity Zinta was last seen in the 2018 film Bhaiaji Superhit which released after several delays. Her last full length role was in 2013’s Ishkq in Paris, which was also produced by her. She will now be seen in Rajkumar Santoshi’s Lahore 1947 with Sunny Deol. The film is being produced by Aamir Khan.
