    Lee, who is currently in India promoting his film, says in Bollywood he really likes Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta.
     
    He says, "I like Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta in Bollywood. Shah Rukh has done some really good work in Bollywood and I appreciate that."
     
    Directed by Anupam Sharma "UnIndian" features Brett Lee, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Supriya Pathak, Akash Khurana and Gulshan Grover.
