She humorously mentioned how Gene “lucked out” by marrying an Indian woman, as Indian culture offers numerous occasions to celebrate. She expressed gratitude to @styledbyambika for organizing an amazing Holi party and shared her excitement for the festivities.
Preity’s Personal and Professional Life
A day earlier, Preity had also posted a series of pictures from the Holi celebrations, sharing how special it was to celebrate with their children. Preity and Gene tied the knot in 2016 and welcomed their twins, Jai and Gia, via surrogacy on November 11, 2021.
On the professional front, Preity is making her Bollywood comeback with Lahore 1947, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. The film features Sunny Deol, Shabana Azmi, Ali Fazal, and Karan Deol. This marks an important return for Preity, who was last seen in Bhaiaji Superhit in 2018. She also made a brief appearance in the American TV series Fresh Off The Boat.
With her focus on family and career, Preity continues to embrace her cultural heritage while preparing for her return to the silver screen.
