Preity Zinta hits back at national daily; accuses it of lying!

The bubbly B-Town beauty lost her cool on the media for lying blatantly. A tabloid today carried a news story of Preity abusing the coach of Kings XI Punjab, Sanjay Bangar.

Not someone to take things lying, the actress took to social network and shared her official statement on the issue. She's even threatened to sue the journalists in questions for defamation. Read her whole text here.

Perfect example of How Journalists LIE BLATANTLY & should be sued for DEFAMATION ! For the record I do have manners & I did go to school so Mr. Vijay Tagore either apologize or bring forward ur so called Source as you are guilty of slander. I most definitely DID NOT be disrespectful to our coach nor abuse any one & definitely did not use the FOUR LETTER WORD. Your story reeks of SEXISM and is incorrect & exaggerated beyond words I did speak to Veeru & Sanjay for exactly 20 seconds and asked why Axe did not bat after which I congratulated Virat Kohli & spoke to him briefly as he walked up to me. After which I proceeded to have a chat with Shane Watson& then left the ground with my husband & In Laws as we were in one car & I was disappointed. My mother & Brother stayed back as she was to go to the presentation ceremony & they were traveling in another car. I will not deny that I was disappointed but how dare any journalist cook up a story with me as a Villain. Just because I do not Support "PAID MEDIA or MEDIA NET" does not mean I am a soft target. Sanjay & I BOTH have DENIED this story STILL it gets Printed. I am fed up of this nonsense & negativity. Just because our judicial system is slow some Indian Journalists time and again use it to write ANY & EVERYTHING & make soft targets of celebrities. Mumbai Mirror has been in the forefront of writing stories which are factually incorrect time & again & it's getting both alarming & disgusting. Also I'm amazed at the chauvinist & sexist undertone to your article. Just because I am a woman you presume me to be a bimbo & know nothing about Cricket even though I have been working in this sport and business for the past 9 years. For the record I do know more about the game than you do about journalism. My question to you is - would you have written the same thing if you were writing about another man in cricket ? So now either Mr. Vijay should prove this story true of face the consequences If I did not speak to the coach on the ground for more than 20 seconds then how can this story be true ? I like the way this journalist compares owners & coaches in Europe. Really ? In Europe Mr. Vijay you would not get a job as a journalist cuz instead of reporting facts u cook them up so technically you would be sued by now & yes I do have every right to ASK a legit question. You wanted a statement from me but whatever I said to you & my PR you CONVENIENTLY forgot to print it & preferred to call it cryptic text messages Amazing ! Also I'm amazed at my picture used in this article. A perfect example of a B grade masala flick. Shame on you. #disgusting #sensationaljournalism #paidmedia #medianet (sic)
