Preeti Jhangiani made her Bollywood debut with the blockbuster movie Mohabbatein. The actress was paired opposite Jimmy Shergill. She worked with superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan. In a candid chat with Zoom, Preeti opened up about working with both stars in her debut film.
Preeti Jhangiani is an SRK fan
When asked if she was an SRK fan while shooting for the film, Preeti said, "Everybody is a Shah Rukh fan. There is no way we could not be a Shahrukh fan. He is so charming. He is a personality. When you first look at him, then you think he is not that impressive to look at initially. But when he actually comes and speaks to you, it's like you can look at no one else. He is so intelligent, he is so charming. It is hard for anybody to not look at him."

Preeti felt intimidated by Amitabh Bachchan
The actress also revealed that she was very intimidated by Big B. Narrating an incident, she said, "I was a little intimidated by Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. On camera, I was always confident. Whenever I acted, modelled, even when I was young. I found it came naturally to me and I was more confident. But off-camera I was shy. I remember on the sets, it was quite cold when we were shooting. And I remember Mr. Amitabh Bachchan came and gave me a shawl to wear. I said no no, I can't take it. And Yash ji told me 'Listen, if Amitabh Bachchan gave me that shawl, I would take it, I would run home and I would not give it back to him.' And I regret it to date that you know, I'll take it now!"
