Both Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna belong to the Indian film industry. Even though she left acting to become a successful writer, her wit, humor and outspoken opinions about Bollywood often make her the talk of the town. Similarly, Ajay Devgan’s wife Kajol is known for speaking her mind and giving her honest opinion about her husband’s films too.
Recently during an event organized by Hindustan Times, Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan opened up about their family members criticizing their work. Khiladi Kumar started by saying that he does not take his wife Twinkle Khanna to screenings. Even if he sits with her and shows her the movie, she can be heard saying how terrible the scenes are and criticizing the movie and the climax.
During this time, he went back in time and remembered the incident when Twinkle had told a producer how bad Akshay’s film was. “The first time I took it for my test, the producer came and asked how he liked the film, he called it rubbish (terrible). That producer never worked with me again,” Kumar quipped.
However, the Pad Man actor said that he envies her for speaking her mind. Akki also told that whenever his wife likes something, she praises it. Kumar said, “She was very happy with ‘Khel Khel Mein’, even though it didn’t work, it was a hit in my heart.”
He was joined by Shaitan actor Ajay Devgan who admitted that his wife Kajol and children Nysa and Yug also do not shy away from criticizing his films. The actor said that Kajol and children are also similar. But he is quick to admit that with the new generation, he upgrades himself, knows the mindset, and learns what is working. He also said that the new generation will criticize whenever it wants.
Having said that, the actor-producer also thanked the people behind inventing AirPods. Sharing the reason behind this, he said that after a time one can wear the device and his family can continue talking, adding that both his children lecture him on Gen-Z language.
