The following Twinkle Khanna released her second book The Legend Of Lakshmi Prasad. In an exclusive interview to NDTV, Twinkle Khanna spoke about her book and said: "Doing Mrs Funny Bones 2 would be the most logical, commercial, viable step but this is what obsessed me this is what gripped me. So I wrote this. I planned to write a novel, I wrote ten chapters down then switched to writing this."
