Amid stellar co-stars, US local issues hit me; Preity saw it all and championed my cause with genuine force – pure army daughter energy.’ Celina, reflecting as a mother, extols Preity as the gold standard for resilient women whose ‘just good enough’ vibe hides profound strength.
Bound not by films but by shared military legacies, their rapport is a testament to profound connections. This heartfelt recollection elevates Preity’s birthday into a narrative of empowerment, illustrating how one voice can alter fates in unfamiliar territories.
