Preity Zinta misses home. The actress who is from Himachal Pradesh has settled in the US with her husband and two kids. Despite living in a foreign land, she stays true to her roots. Her “ghar ki kheti” sessions on Instagram are quite a hit. Preity absolutely loves home-grown fruits and vegetables. After all, she is a proud Himachali with a lush green farm in her Shimla home. In the latest episode of “ghar ki kheti”, the actress wasn't able to hold back her excitement. The reason is simple. Her three-year-long wait yielded sweet fruits. We are talking about her “Pink Lady Apple” tree.
Preity Zinta revealed that she first discovered gardening during the COVID-19 pandemic. It gave her a sense of security, happiness and hope. She said that all the plants and trees featured in her “ghar ki kheti” videos were planted during the pandemic time. Introducing us to her Pink Lady Apple tree, Preity expressed her excitement. She said, “I know it has been three years but I am super excited because finally, I have a fruit. Two little apples.”

Preity Zinta shared that she waited for three long years to finally see the apples. “Bahut tapasaya ki maine in apples ko ugane ke liye (I have done hard work to grow these apples), I used to talk to this tree everyday that please give me some apples,” she added.
Preity Zinta said the Pink Lady Apple tree is very special to her as it always reminds her of her home in Himachal. We are surely convinced when she said, “you can take a girl out of Himachal, but you cannot take Himachal out of the girl.”
Concluding her clip, Preity Zinta said cheers “to eating organically, living healthy, high thinking, being proud of the roots and never forgetting where you come from.” Oh and not to miss her "ghar ki kheti."
