Author, celebrity columnist and former actor Twinkle Khanna seems to have pulled off a stunt on Instagram. She inserted a strip on the photo she showed off that read “+1 from Kumar,” possibly referring to her husband and actor Akshay Kumar.

Twinkle’s Instagram stunts
On Thursday, Twinkle shared a photo on her Instagram account without a caption. On a solid red background, white text read “Twinkle Khanna” but was removed and replaced with “Kumar’s +1”. She also inserted the same text on her display image and changed her bio to read: “Move over to Mrs. Funny Bones and say hello to Kumar’s +1.” Winky is known as “Mrs.” Funny Bones,” which is also the title of her first book, published in 2016.

Instagram users were surprised by the changes. However, many praised Twink for sending a message to everyone who only recognized her as Akshay Kumar’s wife, discrediting her own career achievements. “Hahaha so awesome,” one user commented on her new post. “This is so exciting (heartbroken emoji),” another wrote. “(tearful laughing emoji) symbols) love it,” wrote a third. “Hahahahahahahaha so gonna copy this. Absolute genius,” commented a fourth user, while another wrote: “Aurat ki Identity admi se hoti hai – to beti Kyu padhana hai? (If a woman’s identity It’s through her man, so why teach your daughter that?). Another user resonated with this, Twinkle wrote: “It’s actually painful when you’re so successful in your own way ( red heart emoji). “
However, one user went beyond the comment and said it was a hint at Twinkle’s new book. “New book (love eyes and dancing girl emoji),” they wrote. However, some took Twinkle’s message the other way and went on to congratulate her on her third pregnancy. One user wrote: “Pregnant again?? Congratulations.” Many people followed suit and congratulated Twinkle in the comment area.
Earlier this year, Twinkle completed an MA in Fiction Writing at Goldsmiths, University of London. She also recently published the novel Welcome to Paradise. Meanwhile, Akshay will next be seen in Badmyan Chotmiyan.
