Twinkle Khanna has donned many hats so far and has done so effortlessly. From being a popular actress in the 90s to an award-winning author now, Twinkle transitioned into both careers seamlessly, winning hearts along the way. However, let’s not forget the most important roles she plays — that of a loving wife to her husband, Akshay, and a doting mom to her kids, Aarav and Nitara. Recently, the actress-author opened up about her parenting hacks when it came to overcoming social and cultural biases, fondly recalling one anecdote about Nitara, in particular, which she saw as a triumphant moment.
Twinkle Khanna says her first child, Aarav was her parenting ‘manual’
Twinkle Khanna appeared for a candid interaction with FICCI FLO, during which she opened up about her parenting journey. The actress-turned-author admitted that mothering her first child was more of a leaning phase. According to Twinkle, the firstborn tends to serve as a ‘manual’ for parents because they’re still figuring out what they should and shouldn’t do. Twinkle can be quoted as saying:
“I learnt a lot with my first child. And I think your first child tends to be that manual. You experiment a little bit on that child.”
