Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna have been married since 2001, and are known to be one of the most long-lasting marriages of Bollyood. The couple has two children: a son named
Aarav and a daughter named Nitara Kumar. Twinkle Khanna, who shifted from acting to writing, has been open about her experiences, including the challenges of motherhood and societal expectations.
In one of her candid revelations, Twinkle Khanna shared an awkward moment involving her husband.
After the birth of their son Aarav in 2002, she recounted an incident where Akshay Kumar made an inappropriate comment, referring to her as a cow!
In her Times of India column, she wrote, “My initiation into motherhood began in 2002 when my son was born. This was the time when my husband told a visitor that I was unavailable because I was ‘milking’ and immediately sealed my transformation from a hot chick to a cow…”
In the same column, she said, how mothers are expected to be “therapists, event planners, stylists, educators, motivational coaches, and nutritionists rolled into one.”
While on Akshay, Despite a string of underperforming films in his post-pandemic phase, his latest release, Khel Khel Mein, is showing resilience and holding steady against the Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao-led Stree 2 as it enters the fourth weekend. Over its 3 week run, the film has minted about Rs 31.9 crore, and is hoping to mint at least Rs 35 before. This journey has been made smoother, thanks to the postponement of Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency and next big film releasing only on 13th September- Kareena Kapoor Khan’s The Buckingham Murders.
On the fourth Friday, the film earned Rs 55 lakh, with Saturday collections jumping to Rs 85 lakh- a jump of over 50 % as per early estimates by Sacnilk, thus taking the 24 day collection of the film to Rs 33.30 crore.
Akshay Kumar will next be seen in Singham Again during Diwali. His next film was supposed to be Sky Force, releasing on October 2nd release, but it has been postponed to early next year. Beyond that, his lineup includes Welcome to the Jungle, Jolly LLB 3, and The Untold Story of C. Sankaran Nair. Additionally, reports suggest he has joined forces with Siddharth Anand for a film directed by Milan Luthria.
Khel Khel Mein, directed by Mudassar Aziz, features a stellar cast that includes Fardeen Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Ammy Virk, Vaani Kapoor, Pragya Jaiswal, and Aditya Seal.
