Preity had shared an instagram post featuring her along with Rani, Kareena and Aishwarya. The post had blown up on social media, as it was really rare to see these actresses together.
Interestingly, three of these amazing and talented actresses are connected with one film, Kal Ho Na Ho. Preity was the lead actress in the film while Kareena was initially approached for the film, but she had refused to pick Karan’s calls. On the other hand, Rani was deeply hurt when Karan didn’t approach her with a role in the film, and she had to learn this from somebody else.
All the differences were addressed on the sets of Koffee With Karan in 2004, which featured Rani and Kareena as guests. Karan had first of all, apologised for how he behaved with Rani and Kareena had said that she regretted not taking up his offer. Karan had also asked about their friendship with Preity.

Rani had said, “It was never a friendship, Karan, to be very honest. We shared a great working relationship. Me and Preity, we gel very well when we work together, especially when we did Chori Chori Chupke Chupke and Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega. That was the time when we both were starting off. Preity and Rani were always put together, I don’t know for what. We did that Piya Piya together.”
She had continued saying, “I think maybe because me and Preity, we look the same, we both have the same kind of body language and all so we look great together onscreen. When journalists came on the sets, what they saw was that Preity and I were very comfortable on the sets with each other when we were working and I guess that was blown out of proportion in magazines and we were called Siamese twins. We tried to clear out to people that we are not really the best of friends and we don’t go out together but no one was buying that. But that is the fact.”
After Karan showed them a clip of Preity talking about the film and accused Kareena of acknowledging her only when Karan is around. Rani had said afterwards, “I think Preity talks too much, she should talk less. That’s the only thing I want to tell her through your show. I think she has an opinion about everything. I think she should cut that out.”
