'Raat gayi baat gayi': Twinkle Khanna says physical infidelity isn't a deal breaker as she debates with Janhvi Kapoor

Twinkle Khanna and Kajol recently discussed infidelity with Karan Johar and Janhvi Kapoor on their talk show Two Much. While Janhvi saw physical infidelity as a deal breaker, the others felt it could be overlooked.

This or That segment: love vs compatibility

The show’s ‘This or That’ segment had guests share their opinions on prompts. The first question asked whether love or compatibility matters more in marriage. Twinkle and Janhvi said love is essential, while Kajol and Karan prioritized compatibility.

Kajol on love and compatibility

Kajol said that love cannot last without compatibility, adding, “Love is the first thing to fade after marriage if you aren’t compatible.” Karan agreed, noting that eventually, factors beyond love also become important.

Emotional vs physical infidelity

The next question asked whether emotional infidelity is worse than physical infidelity. Janhvi stood alone in thinking physical cheating was a deal breaker, while the others felt emotional betrayal was worse. Karan said, “Physical infidelity is not a deal breaker,” and Janhvi disagreed, “No, the deal is broken.” Twinkle added, “We’re in our 50s, she’s in her 20s, and she will get into this circle soon. She hasn’t seen what we have. Raat gayi baat gayi (What’s happened, has happened).”

During a game of Truth or Lie, Janhvi dared Karan to share, “Tell us one scandalous truth about yourself and one lie, and we’ll guess which is true.” With a playful grin, Karan replied, “I lost my virginity at 26, and I’ve been involved with a member of your family.”

Janhvi’s eyes widened while Twinkle and Kajol burst out laughing as Karan quickly clarified that only the first statement was true. “I lost my virginity at 26, but I’ve never been intimate with anyone from your family—though the thought has crossed my mind a couple of times,” said the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil director.

Meanwhile, Twinkle has been married to Akshay Kumar since 2001, while Kajol has been married to Ajay Devgn since 1999. Before marrying Twinkle, Akshay was engaged to Raveena Tandon and also dated Shilpa Shetty, with whom he had a difficult breakup during the filming of Dhadkan.

In a previous episode, Twinkle had opened up about her first meeting with Akshay, giving fans a peek into their early days.

“I actually met him because of my dad (Rajesh Khanna),” Twinkle said. “My dad had an old producer friend who insisted, ‘You have to work in this movie because I’ve given my word.’ I didn’t want to work with him at that point, but I did.” Twinkle added that she had been snobby, especially since Akshay was going through a rough patch in his career with back-to-back flops. Saif cheekily chimed in, “You’ve always given some flops and then super hits, so who cares?”

Akshay then revealed a surprising side of Twinkle, sharing how thoroughly she vetted him before marriage. “Aadmi jab shaadi karta hai toh do kundliyaan milata hai. She didn’t believe in that. You know what she did? She checked if my father had any kind of disease — she removed all the genetic and DNA background till my mamas, chachas, and chachis. And then, and only then, she decided that okay, I can marry him.”

On the work front, Twinkle quit acting after her marriage with Akshay Kumar. The couple are proud parents to two kids, Aarav and Nitara.
