New Delhi: Bollywood actor Preity Zinta is on a family vacation in Shimla, her hometown, with her husband Gene Goodenough and their twins Jai and Gia. The actor visited the Hateshwari Mata temple in Shimla with her family. 


Preity took to social media and shared a video giving a glimpse of her visit. She wrote on Instagram, “When I was a little girl I often visited the Hateshwari Mata temple in Hatkoti, Shimla - Himachal Pradesh. This temple has played a big role in my childhood & I’ve always felt very connected to it. Now that I’m a mother its only natural that the first temple my kids visited was this incredible & ancient temple. Here’s a sneak peek of our visit. I’m sure Jai & Gia will not remember this trip so we will have to come back again ❤️🙏 क्योंकि माँ का बुलावा फिर से ज़रूर आएगा 🙏 Jai Ma Durga - Jai Mahisasurmardini 😍 If any of you get a chance to visit do not miss it. It’s magical, mysterious & stunning beautiful & yes you can thank me later. #Jaimatadi #Hateshwarimata #family #tradition #ting” 



 
Preity chose a bright yellow suit for the visit and kept her head covered with a dupatta to show respect. Her husband Gene was seen in a black shirt and jeans. The couple was seen carrying their two kids in their arms as they participated in the rituals 


She also shared a selfie with her husband Gene where she is seen wearing a dupatta in her head (Himachali style). The actor shared that with the caption,”Pahadi Swag with pati parmeshwar 😍 #ting.”

No better sound than hearing …. mama … mama for the first time from the kiddos. This really is heaven 😍 #ting.”
