Dimpled dame Preity Zinta, who has donned the hat of a producer with Ishkq In Paris, is now contemplating adding another feather to her cap- that of a writer, claim sources.
It seems that Zinta recently declared that she intends to write a book about all the fake stories that have been printed in the media about her. Taking to Twitter, the actress-producer wrote, "I actually have a Book coming out on all the fake stories Dat have come out in the past with a pic of the concerned journo :-) Ting."
However, Zinta hastened to add that not all media persons are like this. The actress clarified this stand on Twitter, "Don't get me wrong, there r a LOT of ETHICAL & Serious journalists out there but its a pity dey r getting outnumbered by da frivolous 1's. I'd lie if I say I don't have friends in da media who I respect n admire 4 their sense of purpose n hard work! Few rotten apples dont matter."
Interestingly, Preity had herself played the role of a reporter in Farhan Akhtar's Lakshya, where her role was said to be modeled on Barkha Dutt.
Preity Zinta, who has turned producer with the film Ishkq In Paris, had a field day on Sunday sharing interesting trivia about its making.
About shooting in the picturesque country of France, she wrote, "First day of shooting 4 #IIP was in Lyon france & the temp was Minus 23 degrees C ! we shot in the train which broke down due 2 the cold."
She also tweeted about her mother, Neelu Zinta, being one of the co-producers in the film. Preity quipped, "Mom who I fondly call Mother India is also the producer of #IIP. Why ? Aree Baba, she produced me so technically she's the producer too!"
Her final trivia for the evening was about learning French for the film. Preity added, "#IIP. Trivia... I learnt to speak French (a little) 4 the movie ! It really is a beautiful language ... But very tough to speak !"
Ishkq In Paris, starring Preity Zinta and Rhehan Malliek, is set to release on October 5.
Bollywood celebrities Preity Zinta and Amitabh Bachchan prayed for the victims of the earthquake at Iran, which killed about 250 people and injured 1,800 others.

It had been reported a few days back that after Preity Zinta, Katrina Kaif has been roped in to star in Yamla Pagla Deewana Sequel starring Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol.
However, a source attached to the movie recently revealed that these are mere rumours and none of the aforementioned actresses have been approached for the movie. The source was quoted saying that the script of the movie does not require big roles as far as female actresses are concerned and as such, there is no need to rope in A-list actresses for the movie.
The film, which will be an action-comedy like the prequel, will be directed by Sangeeth Sivan.
