Preity Zinta is very excited about her role in the upcoming film Heroes, in which she plays a demure girl who is romantically paired with Salman Khan, a bearded and turbaned Sikh.
Asked why she agreed to do the film, Preity told CNN-IBN, "I was at this phase in my life where I was refusing every film that came my way. I just wanted to do something different. And one fine day Sameer just walked in and narrated the script to me. I jumped one meter above my chair in excitement and said, 'this is it'."

Preity, 33, is reported to have enrolled in Anupam Kher's acting school to brush up her acting skills for the role.
"Preity took a lot of effort to fit into the role. She learnt the local language. She even went to a village to observe the behavior of the local women. Just watch, this is going to be Preity's best performance till date!" says Karnik.
