How to feel patriotic when I'm about to see Ranveer in his tight underwear: Twinkle

Mumbai: Bollywood might not have had a successful actress in Twinkle Khanna, but it nevertheless was gifted with a legitimately funny and perceptive writer.
She often has her detractors bite their words and nails with her smart ripostes.

When the government announced that the National Anthem is to be made mandatory before playing every film, most of the industry had chosen to stay mum.

However Twinkle being the hilariously outspoken lady that she is, chose to react to it in her own inimitable style.

Writing in a column for a leading daily, she said, "I am admittedly one of those barmy women who get teary-eyed during our national anthem and bellow it out as loudly as we can, much to the embarrassment of our children. I have even gone on a tour to the Wagah border where, along with the 200 people sitting beside me, I too screamed myself hoarse with ‘Jai Hind’ and ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ competing vigorously with the Pakistanis raising their slogans across the border, because not having variable parameters to judge nationalism, we seem to simply define it by volume, hoping the loudest wins.

"But I still can’t wrap my head around how and why I am obliged to feel patriotic when I have merely booked tickets for Befikre, and am about to see Ranveer Singh in his tight red underwear.”

Well, if you have to put it across, do it like Twinkle!
