‘Preity Zinta's team won kya?': Salman Khan's old tweet goes VIRAL ahead of RCB vs PBKS IPL 2025 final
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's tweet from 2014 has made a big comeback online ahead of the
IPL
final today. An 11-year-old tweet by Khan has taken over social media, adding a nostalgic twist to the cricket frenzy. The tweet asked, "Zinta's team won kya?"—a simple question about
Preity Zinta
's cricket team, which she co-owns.
Now, after a dramatic win over Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings have stormed into their first IPL final in 11 years, and the internet couldn't resist bringing back Salman's tweet.
The tweet that predicted a comeback?
Salman's tweet might have been a passing comment in 2014, but it has aged in the most surprising way.
The old tweet quickly became a hot topic on social media. Fans loved seeing it again and shared lots of memes and messages. Many fans saw the tweet as a lucky charm for PBKS.
They also asked Salman Khan to come to the final.
One fan wrote, 'Bring him to the final.' Another said, 'You guys need to bring BHAI to the IPL FINAL.' A fan summed up the feeling perfectly, 'Iss tweet ko Final jeetne ke baad bhi repost karna banta hai.'
On the work front
Away from the cricket fever, Salman was last seen on screen in the film 'Sikandar'. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, the movie also starred Rashmika Mandanna and Kajal Aggarwal.
Despite the buzz, the film did not perform well at the box office. It was later released on OTT on 25 May, giving fans a second chance to catch the action at home.
Meanwhile, Preity Zinta is all set to return to the big screen with the upcoming period drama 'Lahore 1947'. Directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, the film features Sunny Deol in a key role and is set against the emotional backdrop of the India-Pakistan partition.

Did Deepika Padukone's Rs 25 crore fee and 10 per cent profit share demand lead to her exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Spirit'? Here's what we know
's sudden departure from 's highly anticipated film 'Spirit', starring , sparked a flurry of speculation last month. The buzz began when reports suggested that the actress had demanded an 8-hour workday, a profit-sharing clause, and remuneration to the tune of Rs 20 crore, which was not acceptable to the makers. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now New reports now claim that the issue escalated when Deepika asked for Rs 25 crore and a 10 per cent profit share. Deepika demanded Rs 25 crore and a 10 per cent profit share According to News18, a source close to the production revealed that Deepika's team is struggling to come to terms with her replacement and is conveniently spinning her exit as a 'work-life balance' decision. 'The actor had reportedly demanded Rs 25 crore for approximately 35 days of shoot, along with a 10% profit share, extensive entourage expenses, and even expressed unwillingness to deliver dialogues in Telugu — something the director felt strongly about. To top it off, confidential plot details from Spirit were allegedly leaked, which raised serious concerns among the producers,' the source revealed. Deepika Padukone and Tiger Shroff at Mumbai Airport Deepika's 8 hour workday demand was never an issue The source further added that Deepika's 8-hour workdays were not a sticking point, although it has now gained attention. 'In filmmaking, working hours are fluid and depend on location, lighting, and various technical factors. You could shoot for 2 hours or 8, depending on the scene. What truly matters is flexibility, collaboration, and respect for the craft,' the source added. Refused to deliver dialogue in Telugu The question of dialogue delivery also became a point of contention. Reddy Vanga reportedly places high value on actors delivering their own lines to preserve the emotional integrity of a scene. The insider also criticised the wider narrative being shaped in the media around work-life balance without knowing the facts. They called it unfair, as it fails to understand the repercussions a production or director can face. 'It's about unreasonable demands, lack of adaptability, and unprofessional conduct,' they stated. Triptii Dimri 's entry Following Deepika's unexpected exit, Sandeep announced Triptii Dimri as the new leading lady of Spirit. He also shared a cryptic note on his social media, calling out the integrity of 'feminism' and 'dirty PR games.'
