I was scared of Salman: Preity

Actor Preity Zinta has revealed she was scared of Salman Khan before she shared the screen space with the superstar.

Preity, 40, who is now a close friend of the Bajrangi Bhaijaan star, worked with him in five films in her 17 year long career and said he is a shy person.

“The only actor I used to be scared of before I worked with him was @BeingSalmanKhan I don’t 

know why but I was... “I used to love to see Salman squirm and get embarrassed hearing my dialogues in Chori Chori Chupke Chupke. He actually is kinda shy,” she tweeted while answering a Q&A session with fans on the completion of 17 years in Bollywood. Preity also shared that she and her Chori Chori Chupke Chupke co-star Rani <g data-gr-id="19">Mukerjee</g>, had the greatest chemistry.

“Of all my co-stars my best Co-star award goes to the one and only Rani <g data-gr-id="18">Mukerjee</g>. She is a pleasure to work with and we had the greatest chemistry,” said the actor, who worked with Rani in many movies. 

The dimpled-beauty made her acting debut with Dil Se.. in 1998 followed by a role in Soldier the same year. She was later recognised for her role as a mother in Kya Kehna.
