Preity sports a tattoo

Strange but completely true. Our pretty Preity Zinta is a tattoo expert. After showing her cricketing acumen on and off the field, by taking her Kings XI Punjab team to the semi finals of the Indian Premier League twenty20, Preity has demonstrated that she has other talents too.

Another of her hidden skills was brought to the fore when during the making of her latest film, Heroes, the director Sameer Karnik requested Preity to sport the 'Omkar' tattoo on her hand like all traditional Punjabi females. Sameer even called a tattoo artist for that purpose but Preity did not say anything.

Later she turned up with the perfect 'Omkar' tattoo on her hand and revealed to all that she had done it all by herself. Everyone on the set was surprised to say the least and as the director says, 'Preity has this habit of giving surprises.'

The much awaited Heroes, that pairs Preity once again with Salman Khan, is all set to hit the screens on 24th October.
