Actress Preity Zinta clarifies rumors about her bank loan being waived off, confirming that it is not true.

Preity Zinta, the popular actress known for her roles in Soldier and other Bollywood films, has been away from the film industry for quite some time now. Instead, she has been focusing on her business ventures, engaging with fans on social media, and earning from her involvement in the Indian Premier League. In 2016, she tied the knot with Gene Goodenough, a finance analyst based in Los Angeles, and moved to the United States. Although she now resides there, she still makes frequent visits to her home country of India.

Recently, there have been reports circulating about Zinta having a loan with the now-defunct New India Co-operative Bank, which has been banned by the Reserve Bank of India. According to these allegations, the struggling bank had waived off her loan of Rs 18 crore. However, Zinta has strongly denied these claims and has even called out the Kerala Congress for spreading false information.

The Kerala Congress had posted on social media, accusing Zinta of using her ties with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to get her loan written off, which ultimately led to the bank's collapse and left depositors struggling to get their money back. In response, Zinta firmly stated that she manages her own social media accounts and called out the political party for promoting fake news and using her name and images for clickbait. She clarified that she had taken a loan from the bank over 10 years ago and fully repaid it, and she hopes that her statement will prevent any future misunderstandings.

This is not the first time Zinta has addressed this matter. She had previously clarified that she had an overdraft facility with the New India Co-operative Bank more than 12 years ago and had fully repaid the outstanding amount and closed the account. Following her statement, the Kerala Congress responded, thanking Zinta for her clarification and stating that they are willing to accept any mistakes they may have made.

Meanwhile, the New India Co-operative Bank has been in the spotlight after the Reserve Bank of India imposed a six-month restriction on deposit withdrawals and halted the issuance of new loans. This has caused a lot of concern among the bank's depositors, who are left struggling to get their money back. However, it is reassuring to know that Zinta had fully repaid her loan, and the allegations against her were proven to be false.
