Twinkle Khanna shares her take on 'changing motherhood'; recalls her 'transformation from hot chick to cow' after she gave birth
Twinkle Khanna shared an amusing anecdote about how her husband Akshay Kumar once humorously mentioned that she was unavailable post the birth of their first child because she was busy 'milking'.
In her latest column for The Times of India, Twinkle, who tied the knot with actor Akshay Kumar in January 2001, reminisced about her journey into motherhood back in 2002 with the birth of their son Aarav. The couple also shares a daughter, Nitara, aged 11.
Twinkle reflected on the contrast between her childhood perceptions of motherhood and her own experiences as a modern mother. She shared how her journey into motherhood commenced in 2002 with the birth of her son. Recalling a humorous incident, she mentioned how her husband humorously referred to her as 'milking' to explain her unavailability, marking a significant shift in her identity from a glamorous figure to a nurturing mother.
Twinkle also delved into the myriad challenges of motherhood, emphasizing the societal expectations placed on mothers. She highlighted the pressure to breastfeed while maintaining youthful appearances, balance nutrition, and preserve pre-baby body shapes. Additionally, she discussed the demands of ensuring children's entertainment, social circles, and praising their efforts, all under the guise of 'gentle parenting', contrasting it with the stricter approach of previous generations.
Twinkle stepped away from films after a brief stint in the industry, featuring in movies like Barsaat, along with Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai, Seenu, Baadshah, Joru Ka Ghulam, and Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega.
