'Pretty Woman' Preity Zinta turns 41 today. The actress who dazzled us in films like Kal Ho Na Ho, Veer-Zaara and Salaam Namaste continues to rule our hearts with her million dollar smile. On the occasion of her birthday, here are 10 songs in which she took our breath away.
'Soldier' (Soldier, 1998)
This was Preity's first film in Bollywood and she found instant fame for her 'bubbly' nature. This song with Bobby Deol is a 90s classic.
.
'Jiya Jale' (Dil Se, 1998)
While she worked on Soldier first, Dil Se was released before the film and ended up becoming her debut film. Preity doesn't play a lead role here but her sensuous dance with Shah Rukh Khan in this song is a highlight of the film.
.
'Bhumro' (Mission Kashmir, 2000)
Preity is in her element in this evergreen song.
.
'Piya Piya' (Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega, 2000 )
This super-hit song sees Preity and Rani as best friends who dance merrily to this classic number. Preity in her short hairdo looks charming.
.
'Jaane Kyu Log Pyaar Karte Hai' (Dil Chahta Hai, 2001)
Preity Zinta played Shalini in Farhan Akhtar's directorial debut. Her amazing curls made a huge fashion statement and her chemistry with Aamir Khan was A+.
.
'Mera Dil Ka Tumse Hai Kehna' (Armaan, 2003 )
We get to see a 'wild 'side to Preity Zinta in this song. The actress portrays a negative character as the wife of Anil Kapoor.
.
'It's The Time To Disco' (Kal Ho Naa Ho, 2003)
Kal Ho Naa Ho was one of the biggest films of Preity's career. In this party song, she gets everyone dancing on the floor.
.
'Haila Haila' (Koi Mil Gaya, 2003)
Preity teams up with the electric Hrithik Roshan to give us this dance number. She actually steals the show from Junior Roshan and, of course, watch it for her smile!
.
'Hum Toh Bhai Jaise Hai' (Veer-Zaara, 2004)
Preity plays the role of a Pakistani woman in Veer-Zaara and her traditional suits were a great fashion moment in Hindi films.
.
'My Dil Goes Hmmm' (Salaam Namaste, 2005)
One of my personal favourites among Preity's films is Salaam Namaste. Her chic yet trendy costumes, along with her dimpled smile puts this song on repeat on my playlist.
.
Here's wishing Preity a happy birthday and hoping we see her on the big screen soon!
