Preity Zinta who ruled the roost during her hay days shared her thoughts on intrusive paparazzi.
During her interaction with fans, she said "Nothing is a sacrifice…. I have learnt to accept things the way they are & manage expectations. Now life is a big balancing act for me because I'm a very private person. I do love interacting with my fans & not disappointing anyone by giving them pictures but at the same time one has to set boundaries with people & the media,"
She continued "I don't like it when people or media try to take photographs of my children ( that's non negotiable ) & take pictures of me without asking cuz when anyone asks, I always say yes unless I'm in a rush to catch a plane or when i'm in a temple. I also don't like paparazzi following me around & jumping at me out of nowhere. Sometimes it's scary. I know a lot of the current crop of actors invite the paparazzi to come & photograph them and I do understand their need to constantly be in the news, but it's not how I operate, so it is a bit unnerving,"
She added "I'm absolutely ok with them at events ( cuz it their job) but when they show up outside my gym or hide outside my building it's a bit too much. I'm also human & I need to stay grounded and have my downtime ! Having said that I am extremely grateful for all the opportunities I have and the fact that people love me so I'm not complaining, just being honest about how I feel,"
