Bollywood actress-turned-author Twinkle Khanna recently revealed a surprising detail about her performance in the 2000 film “Mela” during a candid conversation with Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt on her chat show co-hosted by Kajol, “Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle”.
The actress disclosed that the voice heard in the film for her character Roopa was not her own but was dubbed by someone else. In the conversation, Varun Dhawan shared his fondness for the film, calling it a guilty pleasure.
For the uninitiated, “Mela”, directed by Dharmesh Darshan, starred Aamir Khan, Faizal Khan and Twinkle Khanna in lead roles. Despite high expectations, the film turned out to be a critical and commercial disappointment and bombed at the box office.
But as luck would have it, the film's failure coincided with her decision to leave films and focus on her other avenues and get married to Akshay Kumar.
