producer Twinkle Khanna's
birthday. Today also happens to
be the birthday of her father and
Akshay's father-in-law, the late
Bollywood superstar Rajesh
Khanna, who passed away earlier
this year. Considering the family's
loss, there was speculation about
Akshay not celebrating his wife's
birthday as he does each year.
But the action star has revealed
that he will indeed be celebrating
Twinkle's birthday today. He
reasons, "We will be celebrating
Tina's birthday. My father-in-law
lived life king-size. He believed
each day was a celebration. He
wouldn't like it if we didn't do
anything today."
But while Akshay admitted to
going ahead with the
celebrations as an ode to the late
superstar's zest for life, he was
tight-lipped about the plans for
the day.
There was buzz of him taking
Twinkle to Goa for a mini-
vacation around her birthday,
but an insider reveals that
contrary to the reports, the
celebration will be an intimate
affair with family and a bunch of
close friends and it will be in the
city itself. "There were reports
that they would bring in her
birthday at their Goa bunglow,
where the late superstar Rajesh
Khanna had also celebrated his
birthday last year with them. But
these reports are not true.
Akshay has taken a few days off
till New Year's, which he will
spend with Tina, Aaarav (son)
and Nitara (daughter), but they
are not going to Goa. Instead he
is throwing a party for her, here
in Mumbai. There are also plans
to surprise her with a dinner on
a yacht," informs the insider.
