When Preity Zinta REACTED On Being The Second Choice After Kareena Kapoor Khan In ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’, Co-Star Saif Ali Khan SUPPORTED The Actress (Watch Video)
Preity Zinta once had a perfect response to Karan Johar's question about her role in ‘Kal Ho Naa Ho’, where she replaced Kareena Kapoor Khan. At the time, Karan Johar had expressed disappointment with Kareena Kapoor Khan for turning down the film, citing her financial demands as the reason. This had strained their friendship, though they later reconciled. However, this old video of Karan questioning Preity Zinta on his show ‘Koffee With Karan’ about her replacement of Kareena Kapoor and asking Saif Ali Khan whether Kareena would have been a better fit as Naina is gaining attention online.
Karan asked, “How do you feel about replacing Kareena Kapoor Khan and stepping into to her shoes,” Preity replied, " I don't feel anything, and my logic is very simple: 'You go to shop, try the pair of jeans, and you don't buy it; than somebody else liked it and bought' it. I never looked at it as someone else's film. And when you called me, I told you I wanted to hear the script, and after the script, I was like "Why is Kareena Kapoor not doing this film?". And then the news was all over Kareena Kapoor was the first choice, Preity was the second choice, so all I can say Thankyou Kareena for not doing the film,", she concluded by saying, " Anyway the film was in my destiny." Later, when Karan asked Saif who would be a better Naina, Saif said, “Now that I have seen the film, I don't feel there would be a better Naina.. "
