Actress-turned-author Twinkle Khanna says her funny side was a revelation for many. The 42-year-old writer, who was at Spring fever 2016, said her funny bone was something which developed as a ‘defense mechanism.’ “I think me being funny was more of a defense mechanism. I was very fat, my name is Twinkle. I was teased mercilessly and I had to give it back. So, I gave it back with my tongue. I always say we try to make our kids perfect, but actually it’s the imperfection that make you what you are,” Twinkle said.
