Taking to her social media handles, Twinkle wrote, "A big moment. At first, I was hesitant about sharing it. Also, this goes on to show that age is truly just a number and does not hinder you from achieving your goals. I received an exceptional distinction for my final dissertation, which has now been longlisted for the Pat Kavanagh Prize by Goldsmiths, University of London.
