MUMBAI: A non-bailable warrant has been issued by a Mumbai court against actor Preity Zinta. Film writer Abbas Tyrewala has filed a case of cheque bounce to the tune of Rs 18 Lakhs.

Apparently Preity Zinta had been sent notices to appear in the court four times, but the actress failed to appear. Preity Zinta was last seen in ‘Ishkq In Paris’.

Abbas Tyrewala has directed the hit ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’ and also has written ‘Salaam Namaste’, which starred Preity Zinta and Saif Ali Khan.

Preity Zinta’s latest film released after a six-month delay, but didn’t succeed at the box-office. Preity also owns the IPL Team, Kings XI Punjab.
