PREITY'S PRETTY MAD

Preity Zinta is hopping mad. She's extremely upset with the recent reports of a link-up with New York-based hotelier Vikram Chatwal and break-up with Ness Wadia. Preity clarifies, "These rumours are in bad taste and completely baseless. I cannot believe such uttar rubbish is being written." Friends close to Preity say she has always been honest about her personal life and values her dignity. It is unfair to her when such allegations are spread without even cross-checking with her. A close friend of her says, "How can they link her up with anyone she's seen with? It's rubbish."
