Actor Preity Zinta recalls incidents from the sets of Batwara 1947, in which she says director Rajkumar Santoshi “tortured” her while filming. In her account, Zinta describes how she was deeply affected during the production and says she was “shaking” at the time. She links the memory to her experience working on the period film’s shoot and revisits how the situation played out behind the scenes.
The recollection also coincides with Zinta’s reunion with co-star Sunny Deol. The news notes that Batwara 1947 marks their reappearance together after their earlier collaboration in the 2018 film Bhaiaji Superhit. The sources present Zinta’s remarks as a personal recollection of the working conditions on the Batwara 1947 set, without detailing additional context beyond her statements.
