Twinkle Khanna says her father Rajesh Khanna knew she would be a writer


Perhaps that’s why our parents tell us over and over again that they know us way better than we do. Dad always said I should be a writer-was proud of my maggot filled poetry-would’ve been beaming that I got that paper in my hand eventually http://t.co/4qhOkHJJ3U

Interestingly, the film comes from a story featured in Twinkle’s book, The Legend of Laxmiprasad. In a recent Twitter post, Twinkle reveals that her father, late veteran actor Rajesh Khanna, always wanted her to be a writer. In the film, the role of Arunachalam would be played by Akshay.

Now, after standing out as an author and columnist, Twinkle has stepped into the business of film production with Akshay Kumar’s upcoming project, PadMan. She doesn’t know if to laugh or cry

Twinkle Khanna is at present working on PadMan as a producer. She wrote, “Dad always said I should be a writer-was proud of my maggot filled poetry-would’ve been beaming that I got that paper in my hand eventually.” Twinkle made this revelation in response to a fan of hers who had posted a beautiful picture of Rajesh Khanna holding newspaper in one hand and Twinkle in another. But when did she first realise that she has a way with words? Twinkle Khanna’s journey as an actor wasn’t an impressive one as she has said more than once. Amitabh Bachchan would be playing a cameo as himself in the film.
