Twinkle Khanna on attending Dawood's parties in Dubai
Also known as Mrs Funnybones, Khanna addressed the impact of fake news, now heightened by the impact of social media. In her most recent coloumn on TOI, Twinkle Khanna recalled the time when it was widespread news that Khanna had attended parties hosted by the underworld don, Dawood Ibrahim, in Dubai.
Talking about digital 'fabrications' in her new column, Twinkle Khanna wrote, "We have already witnessed a spate of manipulated news stories, from the morphed pictures that showed the Phogats smiling during the wrestler’s protests, to uncountable stories about the origin of the coronavirus."
"I have even seen my name on a mainstream television channel ticker saying I had performed a medley of songs for Dawood. Considering that even my children think my dancing skills are akin to watching a WWF match between a lone wrestler and gravity, the news channels should have known that Dawood would have chosen more skilled performers. But such is the world of fake news." Twinkle added.
Did the 3 Khans Kill Sushant Singh Rajput?
In the same column, Twinkle also recalled an incident with her cab driver where he proclaimed that the three Khans had killed Sushant Singh Rajput.
Khanna mentioned how the cab driver inisted that these days, the real news was coming to him from platforms like YouTube and WhatsApp.
“Apke Bollywood ke three Khans make fun of our gods in their movies.’ I immediately denied it, giving him numerous instances of movies to the contrary. Then he said, ‘And they are the ones who killed Sushant Singh.’ Khanna’s column read.
“Bhai Saab, where do you get all these crazy ideas?” Looking abashed, he stated, “Yes, you are right, not all three Khans, only one of them is responsible for his murder.”
