Contents Guftagoo with Preeti SagarCareer Preeti is an accomplished singer with basic classical knowledge in music and singing. She shot to instant fame with her English song My Heart is Beating in Julie. She won a special Filmfare award for the same.  In spite of all the accolades and the awards, she couldn't sustain her position in Bollywood.

She now runs her own production company called Angela Films which does advertising, short films and feature-film dubbing. In the 1990s, Angela Films produced the hit children's TV show, Phulwari Bachcho Ki. She was part of jury of the 52nd National Film Awards. In 2010, she sang the UIDAI ID project's official theme song, Yeh Hai Meri Pehchaan. Personal lifePreeti Sagar lives in Mumbai with her husband and two daughters.
