Recalling what Dimple told her, Twinkle said, “She said, ‘I have been married. I’ve seen what it’s like.''' Twinkle also said that she often wonders how her life would have turned out if she had grown up in a house where her mom and dad stayed together. “I feel that maybe if my parents were together, would I really want to constantly keep working, doing something? I probably wouldn’t''.?

The 'Mela' actress also opened up on growing up with a single parent as she said,?“I was raised largely by my mother. I would tell you that for the longest time I didn’t know that patriarchy and the patriarchal system existed because I wasn’t in the system.''

Twinkle?and?Akshay?tied the knot in 2001 and they have two children, Aarav and Nitara.?
