Hyderabad: Twinkle Khanna, an actor-turned-writer, is currently pursuing a Master's degree in fiction writing at Goldsmiths, University of London. She has offered a glimpse of her college life as well as a comment about how she is handling her academics at the age of 48. Sharing the video, she has inquired whether growing old is a multiplication of what one has accomplished or a subtraction of what one cannot accomplish due to age.
She's even quipped that she "should have applied for a master's in strange life choices" instead. The brief film depicts her walking to college, having coffee with her pals, and exhibiting her student identification card. She is also seen posing in front of her college building, which is labelled 'Goldsmiths' on the wall.
Twinkle captioned the video on Instagram, "What's it like going back to Uni on the eve of my fiftieth year on this planet? It's already been nine months of attending classes and questioning my sanity as I sprint towards the end of my Master's programme. Who thought I'd be willing to put myself through submissions, grades, and a thousand cups of coffee in order to concentrate during lectures? I often wonder if I should have pursued a master's degree in unusual life choices."
"On the other hand," she added, "I wouldn't have all these new experiences and even a uni gang, fabulous women I can count on to pull me through deadlines and make me laugh during lunch breaks." Tight skin, a flat stomach, boundless energy—you can either count what you've lost or see what you can gain. Growing old is a mathematical equation; I'd rather think of it as a multiplication sum than a subtraction. Agree? Disagree?"
Twinkle's actor husband Akshay Kumar occasionally visits her in London. Aarav and Nitara, their children, also accompany him. Akshay will now appear in OMG 2, alongside Yami Gautam and Pankaj Tripathi.
