The Story in Brief
In a new promo for Kaun Banega Crorepati, Amitabh Bachchan playfully complained to Preity Zinta that she never responds to his annual birthday wishes. The veteran actor showed an old tweet addressed to her that read: 'Preity Zinta whereever you are, since you have refused to reply to my sms…ha ha…a very happy birthday.' Preity countered with a cheeky explanation: she does reply, but always a week late.
The exchange happened as Preity and Sunny Deol promoted their upcoming film *Batwara 1947*, a Partition-era drama produced by Aamir Khan. Preity returns to the big screen after nearly five years. She and Amitabh have shared screen space in films such as *Mohabbatein* and *Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna*.
The Indian Opinion
Some dismiss such celebrity banter as trivial, but it humanises stars and draws crowd to the show. The real test for *Batwara 1947* is whether its Partition story offers substance beyond the nostalgia of seeing Bachchan, Deol and Zinta together. If the film relies only on these cameos, audiences may feel shortchanged.
