New Delhi [India]: Bollywood actor and Punjab Kings’ co-owner Preity Zinta, a known social media enthusiast, has been actively sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses from the IPL 2025 tournament.
Preity, who regularly interacts with players after every Punjab Kings match, often meets members of both her team and the opposing side. Recently, visuals of her candid moment with star batter Virat Kohli, after the Punjab Kings’ clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Mullanpur, went viral.
We were showing each other pictures of our children & talking about them ! Time does fly… When I first met Virat 18 years ago, he was a spirited teenager buzzing with talent & fire – today he still has that fire & is an icon & a very sweet & doting father ❤️ https://t.co/FNFXLRR7Wi

In the photos, Preity and Virat were seen laughing while looking at a mobile phone. On Monday, during an interactive session with fans on X, the ‘Veer-Zaara’ actress revealed the reason behind the viral moment, sharing that they were exchanging pictures of their children. She also praised Kohli’s journey over the years.
“We were showing each other pictures of our children & talking about them! Time does fly… When I first met Virat 18 years ago, he was a spirited teenager buzzing with talent & fire – today he still has that fire & is an icon & a very sweet & doting father,” she posted on X.
During the fun Q&A session, Preity continued to delight fans with her candid answers. When asked if the rumour about her tradition of cooking parathas for Punjab Kings players after a win was true, she humorously replied, “No, but according to the memes, I do.”
Currently, Punjab Kings hold the fifth spot on the IPL 2025 points table. They are scheduled to face Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday.
