Preity Zinta is currently settled in Los Angeles, US, along with her husband, Gene Goodenough and their twin babies, Gia Goodenough and Jai Goodenough. She has taken a break from her acting career and enjoying the best phase of her life - motherhood. However, she was once part of many eminent films in Bollywood. One such film, Koi Mil Gaya, which completed 20 years on August 8, 2023, had become a box-office success then. Now, the actress revealed an anecdote about her co-star, Hrithik Roshan. In addition, she mentioned how the film is still part of her life.
In an interview with ANI, Preity Zinta opened up about an incident on the sets of her film, Koi Mil Gaya. Recalling the first day of the shoot for the film, Preity mentioned that she had been waiting for her Mission Kashmir and Lakshya co-star, Hrithik Roshan, for quite some time. However, he was nowhere to be seen. Afterwards, when she got irritated by him, Hrithik tapped on her shoulder, and Preity got awestruck by his look, completely dipped in his character. Thus, she realised that Hrithik was already present on the sets and said:
"I remember the first day of shoot, I was irritated that Hrithik was late and suddenly someone tapped on my shoulder, I turned to see and it was Hrithik in Rohit's look. He was completely unrecognisable and I was surprised to see him. It only then struck me that Hrithik was on set all along, it was just that I did not recognise him."

In the same conversation, Preity Zinta also revealed a cute detail about her twin babies, Gia and Jai. The actress shared how she puts her kids to sleep.

"The title track, Koi Mil Gaya is something I play when my kids don't go to sleep, it helps calm them down."
Preity, being an avid social media user, keeps sharing cutesy glimpses of her kids' growing period.

Sharing the picture, Preity penned a long note to reveal the same.
