Los Angeles, March 20 (IANS): Bollywood actress Preity Zinta, who married American beau Gene Goodenough last month, shared an image of herself in a 'choora' (red and white bangles, denoting a newly married woman in Hinduism in North India) on social media.

The dimpled beauty, who made the announcement on her official social media pages just days after news of her secret wedding here surfaced, held a chat with the twitterati on the micro-blogging website on Sunday where her fans asked her about the new things which are part and parcel of marriage.

The “Salaam Namaste” actress posted a selfie of herself, flashing the "choora" with a smile on her face.

“So since you all are asking, the only thing new about being married is having to wear a #Choora for a couple of weeks,” she captioned the image.

Before her marriage to Goodenough, Preity was famously dating Bombay Dyeing heir Ness Wadia from February 2005 until May 2009.
