Preity Zinta Shares Heartfelt Note On Los Angeles Wildfires And Their Devastating Impact

Actor Preity Zinta, residing in Los Angeles, expressed her sorrow over the wildfires devastating the city. Despite being safe, she is deeply affected by the destruction. The Los Angeles County medical examiner's office reported that the death toll from these fires has reached 16. Since Tuesday, over 12,000 structures have been destroyed north of downtown Los Angeles.

Zinta, who has twins Jai and Gia with her husband Gene Goodenough, shared her thoughts on X. She mentioned never imagining witnessing such devastation in Los Angeles neighborhoods. "Friends & families either evacuated or put on high alert, ash descending from smoggy skies like snow & fear & uncertainty about what will happen if the wind does not calm down with toddlers and grandparents with us. I'm heartbroken at the devastation around us & grateful to god that we are safe as of now (sic)" she wrote.

The actor also commended the fire department for their relentless efforts. "My thoughts & prayers to people that are displaced & have lost everything in these fires. Hope the wind dies down soon & the fires are contained... Stay safe everyone (sic)" she added. The cause of these massive fires remains unknown, but early estimates suggest they could become the most expensive wildfires in US history.

Preity Zinta will soon appear in "Lahore 1947," directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and produced by Aamir Khan Productions. Her upcoming project reflects her continued involvement in Bollywood despite residing abroad.
