Preity Zinta has thanked Jay Shah and Indian Railways for rescuing IPL teams and their family members from Dharamshala. This comes after IPL match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals was cancelled just after a few overs in Dharamshala. The match was reportedly suspended due to a technical failure. However, owing to the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, the IPL teams and team members were soon evacuated.
