Her witty sense of humor and sassy remarks may have landed her in trouble quite a few times, but Twinkle Khanna says she would never mince her words for something she believes in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The actor-turned-author, who has been trolled a lot of times on social media for her comments on various issues, says she does not care what others think about her and will continue speaking her mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt depends on what frame of mind you are in. When something moves you or matters to you, you give an opinion. If something matters to me I will always speak up. It may not be a very important thing but it may have entered my sphere of what I feel is important,\u201d Twinkle told PTI in an interview on the sidelines of a L\u2019Oreal Professionnel<\/i> event.<\/p>\n

The 43-year-old star launched \u201cOnly in Salons\u201d campaign by the professional hair care brand.<\/p>\n

The latest Twitter controversy in which Twinkle and her actor husband Akshay Kumar were embroiled was over the auction of the naval costume from \u201cRustom.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The couple had announced that the costume from the film, in which Akshay played an Indian Navy officer, would be auctioned and the proceeds would fund animal rescue and welfare.<\/p>\n

Twinkle, however, received backlash from an Army officer, who tweeted that she would get a \u201cbloody nose\u201d if she auctions the costume.<\/p>\n

Undeterred, the actor had said she would initiate a legal action against the man.<\/p>\n

Both Akshay and Twinkle were served legal notice and were accused of \u201cplaying with the sentiments\u201d of the armed forces by putting up for auction a naval costume.<\/p>\n

Asked if she thinks people did not understand the intention behind the cause or was it a mistake on her and Akshay\u2019s part, Twinkle said, \u201cI don\u2019t really sit and think what other people are thinking. I have a very short time on this planet and I have decided that there are two things that I want to do – I want to leave this world better than what I found and I want to thoroughly enjoy myself in this process. That is all that matters to me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
