February 23, 200718 yr Rani, Preity to appear on Holi special of KBCMumbai, Feb 17 One advantage of having Bollywood's reigning superstar Shah Rukh Khan as the host on STAR Plus' popular game show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' (KBC) is he can convince all his buddies to come to the hot seat.After the star-studded Valentine's Day special, Shah Rukh has just recorded yet another special episode for KBC. This time it's for spring festival of Holi, featuring his two co-stars Preity Zinta and Rani Mukerji.The episode went off like a charm.A source from the set told IANS: 'There were rumours about a fallout between Preity and Rani who were once best friends. But Shah Rukh has a special knack of making all his heroines feel special.''Earlier this week on 'Koffee With Karan' Shah Rukh actually made Kajol and her cousin Rani - who self-admittedly don't socialise together - sit together on one sofa and be civil to each other. Now on KBC, Preity and Rani got along like a house on fire.'Though the exact prize money won by the two leading ladies is not known, the sources said they won close to Rs.50 lakhs together.
April 11, 200718 yr Preity still going strong with Ness Add to ClippingsMUMBAI: Preity is flummoxed and amused by the fresh round of rumours about her split with long-term beau Ness Wadia. More so when in reality, marriage seems to be on the cards soon.In fact, the reason cited for the split (the cold war between Preity and Maureen Wadia) does not exist at all. On the contrary, a close friend of the couple says that there's absolutely no problem between Preity and Maureen."They get along famously. It may sound exciting to have two glamorous women fighting over a man. But the fact is that there's absolutely no tension between Preity and Ness's mom. Preity is very fond of her boyfriend's mother. Touchwood, her relationship with Ness is proceeding on course. The reason why she doesn't speak about Ness and his family is because they're not a part of the entertainment business. They guard their privacy fiercely. Preity respects their space, and is happy to be part of it without trying to disrupt the status quo in any way," says the friend.Preity rubbishes the latest rumour doing the rounds in tinsel town about her massive showdown with Ness in Kuala Lumpur during a film awards ceremony. The actress is in splits about the rumours of her split."Who is spreading these stories? Because the fact is, Ness wasn't even there with me at the award function. My cousin and business manager Inder had accompanied me. If he looked like Ness to the people in Kuala Lumpur, then they need to drink less... You can confirm with the organisers that Ness was nowhere on the scene," she clarifies.
