Being Candid With Twinkle Khanna | Anupama Chopra | Film Companion

Riding high on the success of her new book Pyjamas Are Forgiving, Twinkle Khanna talks to Anupama Chopra about being a working mother & why running the house will still always be a woman’s department. The author speaks about how her marriage with actor-husband Akshay Kumar has evolved over time and even shares some hilarious anecdotes from her stint as an actor back in the 90s.

It's funny how more than half the comments are about the cook and they totally miss the point she was trying to make.

Amazing interview!

[DharmeshChhatrala]

I haven't even seen the full interview and I have liked it already.Twinkle Khanna is THE best example of how a person shouldn't limit herself/himself.
She discovered her talent in writing and today she has created some of the best selling books. Salute to this lady for teaching is to keep on discovering ourselves. Kudos. 👍👍

18:51 you can laugh at things which you don't do well when you have confidence at what you do well

[frangipani.]

I need a twinkle in my life.... She is so balanced, sensible and also fun! 😘

[dbasu]

Twinkle is so witty and gave it back as and when it's needed
Clearly anupama is intimidated by her

[Sudakshina_Kina]

It’s heartening to know that celebrity women are also straddling their careers with managing their households. Yes, in the West, we have to do most of this ourselves but even with help, the ultimate household decisions and responsibilities are taken by women.

I love Anupama! Her questions are on fleek and she has this positive aura around her. So much charm and grace❤️

Throughout the interview I thought..now she would cry...now cry....now...such a deep voice

[akulmadboy]

Actually she is full of ideas..she uses her no 2 capability so well .. wether its interior designing or book writing. Best part is she is the most direct persin in the industry. She accepted her faliure in the industry and moved on creating new things ..god keep making her write amazing books.

[skru]

All r criticizing about why she is complaining about khaane mein Kya banana hai
It's true na.. men are never questioned all these . Sundays are only for Dem. As working women, even we get only one day off. Y can't v share responsibilities.
Always all these questions and responsibilities only for us.

What a delightful interview! Why are people bashing FC for this one? Good lord, pls spare this one at least! There are so many great takeaways from this chat...Twinkle is such a wonderful person to listen to...she talks sense every time! Thank you, FC for having her for us :)

[radhakolipaka]

She is a combo of movies and writing and her wit is quite appealing...and definitely has an attitude in a nice way.

[rinkysen]

Interviewing Twinkle Khanna is celebrating women in films who have now found an alternative career. This is not the same as interviewing Shweta Bachchan (who has never contributed to films) so stop hating on Anupama. Its a fun interview! And Twinkle speaks her mind which is refreshing!

[larrybone]

Awesome interview. Especially how Anu asked Twinkle about how she writes just like she would ask an actor how he or she acts and how Pajamas Are Forgiving would make a great film.

[surajrajbongshi]

Guys she was an actress! Now a producer.

And we all want to know how she is doing post her film career.

She has strong views what happening in our country. Kudos for being honest.

Anupama pls interview other actress as well, those who have left movies.

More power to both of you 👍👍

There are so much to learn from this video. Also, I am sure every book lover can relate to the metaphors and the imaginary world talked about in this video. And I really support what Twinkle Khanna Ma'am said about "not every book should be turned into a movie." Books have its own essence; words, imagination and the smell of the book has its own unique identity. I personally believe it develops discipline and creativity which are needed nowadays. Overall, thanks Anupama Chopra Ma'am for bringing out this video. It is one of the best videos.

[subinkumar]

It is one of the best interviews that i have watched on film companion.. Twinkle is such an intellectual person.. She has such a great sense of humor.. Its very good to watch her speaking about the real facts..

[hisila]

I loved this interview. I wish this was longer. Twinkle is such a delight to listen to. Loved

[sharmapk]

She is just phenomenal. Love her, period'!!

[jiyabhatia]

Her clarity in her thought process and to see herself without any filters!👍I wish to have such an uncomplicated thought process
