When Akshay Kumar was told by Twinkle Khanna there would be no second child if he didn't start doing 'sensible movies'

As a seasoned observer of Bollywood dynamics, I must admit that the relationship between Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna stands out as a unique blend of love, respect, and mutual influence. Their journey, marked by Twinkle’s role in steering Akshay towards socially relevant films, is nothing short of inspiring. It’s not often we see such a powerful partnership both on-screen and off it.

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna are two of the most adored couples in Bollywood, who tied the knot on January 17, 2001, after being together for several years. They have a son named Aarav and a daughter called Nitara. After marriage, Twinkle left acting and gained popularity as an author, while Akshay continued to shine in the industry with his diverse roles across various film genres, including comedies, actions, and socially significant films. Interestingly, it was Twinkle who influenced Akshay to take up more meaningful projects; she once shared that if he didn’t do meaningful movies, she wouldn’t consider having a second child – which is why he plays the role of ‘Pad Man.’

In the course of my life’s journey, I found myself gracing the couch on Koffee With Karan during its fifth season alongside none other than the illustrious Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna. During a lively exchange with the talented filmmaker and host, Karan Johar, Twinkle shared an intriguing tidbit – she had once told Akshay that she wouldn’t consider having a second child unless he continued making intelligent films.

Intrigued, Karan inquired about the matter to which Akshay jokingly responded, “I’m afraid I can’t disclose the struggles I face daily,” and went on to say, “You may have an inkling, but you know her quite well.” Karan observed that the actor has indeed shifted his cinematic choices since he desired a second child, and Akshay concluded by hinting at the private hardships he endures.

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna welcomed their second child Nitara on September 25, 2012, and since then, Akshay has starred in numerous films that address important social issues. Some examples include “OMG – Oh My God!”, “Airlift”, “Toilet: Ek Prem Katha”, “Pad Man”, “Raksha Bandhan”, “OMG 2” and others.

Speaking from a lifestyle perspective, I must share that the dynamic Akshay Kumar recently graced our screens in Khel Khel Mein, which premiered on August 15, 2024. This captivating film, helmed by Mudassar Aziz, boasted an impressive ensemble cast including Fardeen Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Vaani Kapoor, Ammy Virk, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal. Notably, he also delivered a remarkable cameo in the horror comedy flick Stree 2 starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao. Keep an eye out for his future projects such as Sky Force, Welcome To The Jungle, Jolly LLB 3, Housefull 5, Bhooth Bangla, and many more!
