Preity Zinta Slams Congress Unit Over False Loan Allegations: 'Fake News!'

Bollywood actress Preity Zinta has vehemently denied allegations made by the Kerala Congress unit regarding a purported ₹18 crore loan write-off from the New India Co-operative Bank. The Congress unit claimed Zinta received the write-off in exchange for supporting the BJP on social media. Zinta refuted these claims, stating she manages her own social media accounts and that a loan she took over a decade ago was fully repaid. She condemned the spread of "fake news" and expressed shock that a political party would engage in such gossip and clickbait tactics using her name and image. Zinta's strong response highlights the increasing scrutiny and potential for misinformation faced by celebrities in the digital age.
