The actress who writes a regular column for a daily newspaper, under the pseudonym MrsFunnyBones, has already earned a reputation for her sharp sense of humour. Her bio on the blog jokingly mentions that she is secretly trying to change her name to Chetali Bhagat so that her columns get made into movies - a not-so-subtle reference to the bestselling author whose books have been converted into movies several times over.
Picking up on this reference, a fan complimented Khanna on Twitter, saying that she was a fantastic writer and didn't need to change her name. Khanna was quick to tweet a cheeky response with a jab at Bhagat, who recently had his television debut as a judge for Nach Baliye 7.
I do!He gets to judge NachBaliye and i get to judge if that gross thing on my floor is dog puke or poop #SuchIsLife https://t.co/glVOtvREii
