Preity Zinta is right now in New Zealand to watch the cricket one-day series between India and New Zealand. In the meanwhile, she was invited by New Zealand Prime Minister John Key for an evening reception along with the Indian Cricket Team at the Parliament of NZ.“I have just come out of the reception. It was really a pleasure meeting the man, who is so down to earth and I hear extremely popular”, said the actress.
Mr. John Key and Preity Zinta discussed cricket for most of the time. Preity adds that she was extremely concerned for the Sri Lankan team when they were attacked in Pakistan. "I have been in touch with the boys from my team- Kumar Sangakara and Mahela Jayawardene, and they are fine. My prayers are with those boys," she said.
Further talking about the incident, she said, “It's a sad day for cricket and sports in general. I am deeply shocked at what has happened and I strongly condemn these attacks. My sympathies are with the team and I hope they emerge out of this stage”.
