Actor turned author, Twinkle Khanna aka Mrs. Funnybones is famous for her straight forward opinions. But, recently the actress has become a victim of trollers on Twitter.

The actress posted a picture of her from a recent photo shoot she did for a fashion magazine. The actress-turned-author is seen sitting on a pile of books with one of her foot resting on a stool which may be mistaken for books.

However, Twinkle did feel that she should clear the air about her pose in the photoshoot. In a tweet and Instagram post, the star wife posted a message to all the ‘easily outraged’ and said, “My foot is on a stool and not a book because I don’t want to get dust on the cover.”

 

Sometimes I get to do this as well- like the Madonna song ‘Strike a pose -Vogue, Vogue Vogue!’ @vogueindia P.S For the easily outraged : My foot is on a stool and not a book because I don’t want to get dust on the cover- aside from that I have no qualms with sitting on books, sleeping next to them or even keeping a pile in the bathroom to read regularly-The God of Wisdom visits you when you read books not worship them – Love and laughter from this bookworm
