Mumbai, November 8 -- The beautiful and intelligent actress, Preity Zinta, has enrolled at the prestigious Harvard University to pursue a short executive course in negotiating and deal making.

The actress already holds a master’s degree in criminal psychology. Acknowledged as an actress with brains and grit, Zinta is said to be all excited about her new study break.

When asked about her new-found interest, the actress stated that since she spends most of her time in the U.S., she has decided to put that time to a more productive use. Quite kicked about going there next month, Preity Zinta had applied on a whim and was surprisingly offered a seat, which she is more than happy to make good use of.

The striking lady has an ambition and drive to succeed in business, but had certainly expressed her desire to balance her acting and business. The actress has got a stack of film scripts in hand but hasn’t given the go-ahead to any since she’s still waiting to find that elusive role that she has never done before.

The 34-year-old actress is preparing for major changes in her life and is also seen working hard for her television show “Behind the Seams”. The actress confessed that of late she has not been watching any TV serials because it really scares her to death when watching characters in close up with dark black kohl.

When asked her about reality shows, the actress cleverly remarked that they are also staged and there is nothing real in them. However she did talk about her TV show “Behind the Seams” stating that it is a kind of realty show that showcases the cricketers of the Kings XI Punjab team.

Zinta draws a laugh by expressing that “It’s a reality show but there’s no acting involved. It’s about cricketers and you really can’t expect cricketers to start acting.”

Amongst the most popular actresses in the industry, it were the roles that she chose to play in movies like Hero: Love Story of a Spy, Koi Mil Gaya and Kal Ho Naa Ho that had made her a household name. These three films were mega-blockbuster, grossing the highest earnings in 2003.
