Interestingly, it seems like the author-producer has found a new way to pass her time during the lockdown. This is not the first time when she has tried her hand in embroidery. A couple of weeks back, she shared a video and a photo, in which she was seen doing embroidery. 

In the caption of her post, the 46-year-old actor recollected how she learned to paint, sew, and knit during her stay at her grandmother’s house. She also mentioned how she is trying her hand at embroidery after close to 20 years. Elaborating further, Khanna also asserted that she can hear her grandmother’s voice in her head, which is asking her to not do an untidy job.

Meanwhile, Twinkle along with her actor husband Akshay Kumar and children are currently in the UK. Akshay will shoot for the first international schedule of his upcoming film Bell Bottom in Glasgow, Scotland, amid the global pandemic. Filmmaker Ranjit M. Tewari will direct the upcoming flick.
