Preity Zinta walked down the memory lane on Thursday as she recalled her time on the sets of her Bollywood debut film Dil Se alongside Shah Rukh Khan. In a recent Instagram post, the Kal Ho Na Ho reminisced about the time when Mani Ratnam asked her to wash her face and remove all her makeup before taking her close-up shot. Sharing a photo of the same close-up shot on Instagram, Preity Zinta narrated the intriguing anecdote from the film. She wrote, “This picture was taken on the first day on the set of Dil Se. I was so excited to be working with Mani Ratnam sir & Shah Rukh Khan. When Mani sir saw me he smiled and politely asked me to wash my face…. But sir… my make up will come off, I said smiling …. That's exactly what I want… Pls wash your face…. He smiled back. I thought he was joking …. Then I realised he was not !!! So thanks to the amazing Santosh Shivam ( our Director of Photography) I filmed with a freshly washed face and got away with it I guess he shot me Dil Se #throwbackthursday #Dilse #Memories #Ting.”
