New Delhi, May 23 (IANS) If popular international show "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" is remade in India, actress Preity Zinta is all for being a part of it.

"If 'CSI' is remade in India - the real thing, I want to be a part of it. I have studied criminal psychology," Preity said in a statement.

The actress, who portrayed strong female characters in "Kya Kehna" and "Sangharsh", shared her thoughts about increasing crimes against women on BIG CBS PRIME's "Super Crime Sundays".

This Sunday, a two-hour special of the show focuses on the increasing number of crimes committed against women through special episodes of the investigative show, "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation".

Preity believes it is important for everyone to make an effort to spread out the message and stop the increasing violence.

"Every nine seconds, a woman becomes a victim of crime. This woman could be anyone - one's mother, daughter or sister. Because of this, it is critical to respect and protect every woman and bring an end to all crimes committed against them. I want to be involved in initiatives that will help in stopping crimes against women," she said.
