My parents were keen I follow their footsteps and I did, reveals Twinkle Khanna!

Bollywood actress Twinkle Khanna is going to be a producer from film PadMan. Directed by R. Balki, the film stars Akhshay Khanna, Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor in lead roles.

During a press chat, Twinkle revealed that she always wanted to be a chartered accountant but since her parents were from the entertainment world, they wanted her to join the industry. “When you don’t take success very seriously it’s easier to shrug off failure. When I finished my 12th grade, I wanted to become a chartered accountant. But since my parents were in the entertainment business, they were keen I follow their footsteps and I did,” she revealed.

Speaking about her journey as an actress, she revealed, ‘’Eight years later, I came to the conclusion that I had spectacularly failed as an actress. Though this was a bit disheartening, I wasn’t shattered, partly because of the way my mother had raised me, and also because I realised that having failed at something didn’t mean that I was a failure.’’

“It (the failure) meant that I now had the opportunity to try and succeed at million other things. I moved on and here I am today. Life is like flying a kite. Sometimes you have to hold on tight, sometimes loose. Sometimes your kite can fly effortlessly and at other times no matter what you do, you cannot control it,’’ she further added.

PadMan is scheduled to release on January 26, 2018.
