Mirror had informed that Preity Zinta's husband, Gene Goodenough, was flying down to India with his parents (May 6). They landed in Mumbai a day later and took off for Chandigarh from where Preity proceeded onwards to her hometown, Shimla, with hubby and in-laws to spend the Mother's Day with her mum before arriving in Mohali to catch her boys, the Kings XI Punjab, in action on Monday. PZ is expected to return to the Bay in a day or two, informs her close friend and trainer Yasmin Karachiwala, adding that amidst all the travelling, the actress has been training hard to tone up for her upcoming reception, scheduled for May 13. This is one spirited lady who is not superstitious about Friday the 13th.
"She started working out as soon as she returned to Mumbai. Like any bride, she wants to look her best at the reception. She loves pilates and has been working on toning her arms and legs. There is never a dull moment with her in the gym," Yasmin informed Mirror. Neeraj Pathak, the director of Preity's upcoming film, 'Bhaiyyaji Superhitt,' is eagerly awaiting her return to the sets too. "She is enjoying a well-deserved vacation with her husband and in-laws. We are hoping to resume shoot in about 10-15 days," he said, adding that there are plans to welcome her back to the shoot with a party.
Preity married Gene on February 28 in a hush-hush ceremony in Los Angeles. Guests included Sussanne Khan and Sureily Goel. Gene is a management graduate from LA's Marshall School of Business. He is currently Senior Vice President of NLine Energy Inc., a renewable energy development company in the City of Angels. Preity would often visit the LA since her niece and nephew are settled there and on one of the visits met Gene.
