When Preity Zinta reacted to dating rumours with Yuvraj Singh

In an interview, Preity Zinta discussed her relationship with Yuvraj Singh, an Indian cricket player, saying that he is like her brother.

Preity Zinta, the dimpled beauty of Bollywood, made her breathtaking debut with Shah Rukh Khan in Mani Ratnam’s Dil Se, and she hasn’t looked back since. With roles in films like Soldier, Sangharsh, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Laskhya, Koi…Mil Gaya, Veer-Zaara, and many more, the vivacious actress proved her versatility.

In addition to her career, Preity’s personal life has also drawn attention. There were rumours that the actress was dating some of the top personalities in business, sports, and entertainment. Yuvraj Singh, a cricket player, was one of them. Rumours about Preity and Yuvraj’s romance started when they came up for the Indian Premier League.

Among Preity’s team, KXIP (Kings XI Punjab), Yuvraj was a standout batter. Social media was used to spread images and videos of Preity and Yuvraj celebrating their team’s wins during each game. Both of them gave plenty of material for rumours to swirl when they were seen together at several gatherings.

Both Yuvraj and Preity, however, refuted the rumours and frequently referred to one another as closest friends. In an interview, Preity once addressed the rumours and said, “I am a private person. I am amazed when I see so much being written about my life, without being confirmed by me. It has stopped bothering me, but there are a few things which I have taken to heart. When I was linked with Yuvraj Singh and Brett Lee – I will never forget that. They are my brothers. And I have decided to personally visit Lee and Yuvi on Raksha Bandhan and tie rakhis to them.”
