On Friday, Preity Zinta was seen responding to her tweet from 2015. The old post read, "In Kya kehna I slapped d Vice principle so hard dat when the director said cut he screamed-even if it's not ok Its ok. Have U seen her hand".

Responding to it a decade later, the actress confirmed it once again and said, "Yes it's true. I was very new to acting & didn't understand how to time my slap, so it would look real on film, but had no contact. I never made that mistake again but maybe it was "filmy karma" so I ended up getting slapped on film many times, by trained actors & it was not pretty !"

Responding to the trivia, a user asked if she enjoyed slapping SRK. To this, the actress said, "No ! It was not for fun .., moreover I don't slap him … it was Rhea Saran who slapped him". Rhea Saran is the character played by Zinta in the film.
