New Delhi:
Preity Zinta, who previously wrote in a post “It takes sweat, determination, and hard work” to transform dreams into reality, is taking it a bit too seriously. The 45-year-old actress shared a glimpse of her intense training session with tactical trainer Aaron Cohen on Instagram with the caption: “Why should boys have all the fun?” Preity is actually referring to one of her previous posts, in which she revealed she has started tactical training to bring about a change in Bollywood – women headlining action films. “On day 5 of my training with Aaron Cohen here, I am getting familiar with a rifle. It’s liberating to walk a different path, to be unpredictable, to be in pain and to feel like a newcomer all over again. Huge respect for all our security forces after doing these drills. They really are the real heroes. Today was focussed on knowing your weapon, safety drills, body balance and common sense,” Preity captioned her video.
Here’s what’s keeping Preity Zinta busy in Los Angeles.
In her Thursday post from last week, Preity Zinta had a message for those who think that women cannot lead action films in Bollywood: “Training hard with the super tough Aaron Cohen so no one can say that women cannot do action in Hindi movies. Hope all the directors are watching.”
