‘Changing parenthood’ is a topic that Twinkle Khanna, also known as Mrs. Funnybones, has discussed. Twinkle, who has been married to actor Akshay Kumar since January 2001, discussed her journey into motherhood in her new column for The Times of India. In 2002, their son Aarav was born. Another child of the pair is eleven-year-old Nitara. See also: Twinkle Khanna remembers rumours that she sang at Dawood Ibrahim events
“We need to breastfeed, but our breasts shouldn’t droop.”
Twinkle made a comparison between her own experience as a “modern mother” and what motherhood meant to her when she was a youngster. The actor-turned-author stated in her essay, “My son’s birth in 2002 marked the beginning of my journey into parenthood. At that moment, my husband Akshay Kumar confirmed my change from a sultry chick to a cow by telling a guest that I was unavailable due to “milking.”
She went on to discuss the difficulties of becoming a mother, stating, “We need to breastfeed, but we also don’t want sagging breasts. For us to have the waistlines we had before these critters converted our wombs into their own campervans, we need to give them the correct mix of nutrition and refrain from consuming their leftovers. We have to make sure they are amused, socialise with the appropriate peers, and give them praise for their crooked paintings as though we were naked courtiers submitting to an emperor. ‘Gentle parenting’ is the way to go about all of this; our mothers were like army colonels, commanding us around.”
Twinkle’s professional life
After working on several films, including Barsaat (1995), which received the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut, Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai (1998), Seenu (1999), Baadshah (1999), Joru Ka Ghulam (2000), and Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega (2001), Twinkle left the industry.
Mrs. Funnybones, Twinkle’s debut nonfiction book, was published in 2015. The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad (2016) is her second book; it is an anthology of short stories. Pyjamas Are Forgiving (2018) was Twinkle’s third book, and in 2023, her fourth book, Welcome to Paradise, was published.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”

In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
