Being an avid reader and a book lover, it seems that actress Twinkle Khanna is spending her quarantine period reading all varieties of books. The actress recently started a challenge online where she shared the picture of Roald Dahl’s book titled Matilda and asked fans to read the four series of the books and then watch the adaptations so that they can discuss it. 

Twinkle Khanna shares her fondness for books

The actress, who is a well-known author, newspaper columnist, interior designer, movie producer shared the book cover on her Instagram page and asked her fans about how many books from the series have been read by them. She captioned the picture and wrote, “ Matilda, all of four has an impressive reading list. How many books have you read from this list? An experiment I am trying out involves reading the book and then watching the adaptation with my family so that we can all talk about it, readers and non-readers. Give it a shot #Matilda.”

 

This is not the first time that Twinkle has expressed her love for books. Earlier Twinkle shared a post on Instagram, where she spoke about the fun of reading together with a friend or loved one. In the caption, Twinkle Khanna states that there is nothing better than lying down next to each other, while engrossed in one's own book. She added that despite reading different books, the two readers are still together, enjoying each other's company.
