Zinta: 'Films luckier than personal life'

Preity Zinta has revealed that her work in Hindi cinema consistently does well, even if she has faced problems in her personal life.

The Kal Ho Naa Ho actress, who was involved in a high profile break-up with Ness Wadia, told Mumbai Mirror that this made her stronger.

"In the past ten years, I have done big films, given big hits. I was never a B grade or C grade actress. I started with Dil Se. I am the only actress in my generation to have worked with Yash Chopra," she said.

"I have been very lucky. I have never seen crazy failures in films. I did see a difficult side of life personally and it has made me tougher, stronger and smarter. I hope."

Zinta, who has also been involved in court cases over property and the Kings XI Punjab IPL team, confirmed her 2011 return to Hindi film.

"You will see me in movies this year," said the 36-year-old.
