Preity Zinta and her twins
Preity Zinta and her husband Gene Goodenough might be settled in the USA but the Indian actress is making sure that her kids are also exposed to Indian traditions and culture. On Monday, the actress took to her social media handle to share a picture of her twins post their mundan cermony. Posting the picture, she also penned a note.
In the picture shared by Preity, Jai and Gia are seen sitting on a carpeted floor with the back facing the camera. While Gia wore a pale blue dress, Jai was seen in a grey T-shirt and turquoise shorts. They were seen with clean shaved head.
Sharing the photo, Preity captioned the post, "So the Mundan ceremony finally happened this weekend. For Hindus, the first shaving off the hair for babies is considered to be a gesture of purification from the memory of their previous births and freedom from the past. Here are Jai & Gia post their mundan ceremony (red heart emoji)." She also added the hashtags--tradition, mundan ceremony and ting. Reacting to the post, Bobby Deol posted a bunch of red heart emojis.
