Twinkle Khanna, known for her sharp humor and candid opinions, recently shared a playful thought in her latest column. The actress-author, daughter of legendary actors Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, and wife of superstar Akshay Kumar, jokingly admitted that she sometimes wishes Hema Malini were her mother instead of Dimple Kapadia. The light-hearted comment wasn’t made without a reason—Twinkle expressed deep admiration for Hema Malini’s work in advocating for clean water in India.
Hema Malini: Twinkle’s Ideal “Mother” for Clean Water Campaigns
In her column for the Times of India, Twinkle Khanna touched on various issues, from noise pollution to water problems in India. Amid her observations, she praised Hema Malini for her dedication to addressing the country’s water crisis. Twinkle pointed out that Hema Malini, often referred to as Bollywood’s “Dream Girl,” has not only been promoting water purifiers for years but is now also involved in a theatrical production aimed at spreading awareness about keeping India’s rivers clean.
Twinkle remarked that no one in the country seems to care about clean water as much as Hema ji, making her the ideal person to lead such initiatives. In jest, Twinkle wrote, “If Hema ji was my mother, we would have endless discussions about water purifiers, and I would probably get one for free for life!”
Twinkle’s Fun Comparison Between Hema Malini and Dimple Kapadia
In contrast to her praise for Hema Malini’s efforts, Twinkle humorously described her real-life interactions with her mother, Dimple Kapadia. She shared a recent incident where she called Dimple to complain about issues like water pollution, road conditions, and other environmental problems. However, Dimple, instead of engaging in the conversation, cut the call short by telling Twinkle that the noise of Ganpati Visarjan is louder than her complaints, and then disconnected the call.
Twinkle’s amusing recount of this event shows her mother’s somewhat indifferent attitude towards such issues, in stark contrast to Hema Malini’s passion for environmental concerns.
“I Would Have Gotten a Free Water Purifier!”
In a witty twist, Twinkle ended her article with a joke, saying that her wish to have Hema Malini as her mother has crossed her mind before—not only because of Hema ji’s commitment to clean water but also because it might have come with the perk of a lifetime supply of water purifiers!
While the comment was clearly made in good humor, Twinkle’s column also reflected her genuine respect for Hema Malini’s efforts to make India more environmentally conscious. Through her clever writing and relatable anecdotes, Twinkle Khanna once again showcased her ability to blend humor with important social messages.
Twinkle’s playful column has caught the attention of readers, and her witty comparisons between her own mother and Hema Malini continue to bring a smile to fans. The actress-author has always managed to address important issues like pollution, cleanliness, and environmental awareness in her signature quirky and light-hearted style.
