Preity Zinta assures she and her family is ‘safe as of now’ amidst raging wildfire in Los Angeles

Preity Zinta has been shuttling between India and the US ever since she tied the knot with Los-Angeles based financial analyst Gene Goodenough. Amid the raging wildfire in LA, the actress took to her X handle, formerly known as Twitter, to assure her fans of her whereabouts.

“I never thought I would live to see a day where fires would ravage neighbourhoods around us in La, friends & families either evacuated or put on high alert… I’m heartbroken at the devastation around us & grateful to god that we are safe as of now. My thoughts & prayers to people that are displaced & have lost everything in these fires. Hope the wind dies down soon & the fires are contained,” she wrote.

Preity also mentioned that the ash descending from smoggy skies like snow have left the residents with “fear and uncertainty” over what will happen if the wind does not calm down. She also said that there are families with toddlers and grandparents. In the end, the actress also expressed gratitude towards fire department, fire fighters, and everyone else helping to save lives and property.

Earlier, Priyanka Chopra, who is currently at her LA mansion with husband Nick Jonas and daughter Malti Marie, shared a picture of LA fire on hills a few miles away, as visible from the window of her home.
