Talking about her latest book, Mrs Funnybones author said, “This is my third book and I guess when I look at everything that I do, it’s always about women finding their place in the world. To me, what I personally find interesting is that, here is a woman who is interested in finding redemption and not finding a man. It also has an interesting premise because it’s in a stringent Ayurvedic retreat and in a confined environment like the Bigg Boss’ as when you are in a closed place, all the emotions run high and that was interesting for me.”

From these pictures, it is quite evident that the book is pretty intriguing and funny, but with the mention of a well-known political figure in Twinkle's book, does the writer think that her work can lead to a controversy. On this Twinkle said, "I don't think that I have written anything which anybody would take offence to. What has been written, it has been in jest. So, I hope people will enjoy the humour and I think they will."

Even though Twinkle Khanna is happy about all her writing works, she isn't very proud of her acting skills.

On this she said, "I have not given any hit film. Whatever films I have done should be banned and (no one should watch) it. Most of the time, I pretend I have alzheimer's and I don't remember my film career and it makes me happy that ways." 

Twinkle had come close to doing Karan Johar's directorial debut 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', but the role eventually went to Rani Mukerji.

"For the first time Karan is going to direct me in an ad film and god save your soul as I can't act at all," she said on a lighter note.

Twinkle, who herself was a star kid, now is a mother to a teenage son Aarav and five-year-old daughter Nitara.

Having gone through it, and now seeing her kids go through the same, Twinkle commented on the constant media scrutiny around her children. She said, "The times are such that I think the freedom that we enjoyed whether it was going by train or taking a cycle and roaming around in a neighbourhood, those times are gone. What does scare me is that once these children become very recognised, it is dangerous for them."

So does she have any advice for Nitara? On this she answered, "There is no advice as such as I think the biggest advice or example that you can give to your daughters is by setting a good example yourself and I hope I am doing that."

5. A star-studded affair

At the launch when a reporter asked her if she thinks that a film can be made on her latest book as well, she said, “I don’t think that a film should be made on each story of mine. I have done my job by writing the story and that is all I am interested in.”
