On the other hand, talking about the movement, Preity Zinta had said, "I think It's important that this whole #MeToo Movement has started but it is also important that women use it for the right thing because there are men and women who would use the position of their power for their advantage. T

She further stated that " There is a small percentage of women that are using it, and they’re diluting the movement but there are also women who have gone through all these and we have heard so many stories in the industry."

On the work front, Bollywood actress Preity Zinta will be seen in the upcoming film Bhaiaji Superhit which will hit the theaters on 23rd November.
