Twinkle Khanna Jokes About Being Mistaken As Rishi Kapoor’s 'Illegitimate' Daughter: 'I’m Not Alia Bhatt’s Sister-In-Law'

Twinkle Khanna Jokes About Being Mistaken As Rishi Kapoor’s 'Illegitimate' Daughter: 'I’m Not Alia Bhatt’s Sister-In-Law'
On the latest episode of Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle, Twinkle Khanna delighted audiences with one of her trademark witty anecdotes, this time involving none other than the late Rishi Kapoor. The actress-turned-author recalled a funny yet bizarre misunderstanding that stemmed from one of Rishi Kapoor's birthday tweets for her, a mix-up that even led some people to believe she was his “illegitimate daughter."
A Tweet That Sparked Confusion
Sharing the memory on the show, Twinkle said, “I almost became a Kapoor because of Alia's father-in-law. On my birthday, he tweeted very generously, ‘Oh you know… when you were in your mother's stomach, I serenaded her.' So everybody thought that I was his illegitimate daughter. Then he got trolled and had to clarify, saying, ‘No, I am so sorry.'"
Her candid narration left Kajol, who co-hosts the show with her, in splits. Kajol also pointed out that Alia Bhatt, who was present during the episode, had an adorably awkward reaction to the story. Twinkle quickly added, “I am not your sister-in-law, it was a mistake." Varun Dhawan, who also featured in the episode, teased Alia by saying, “She doesn't know how to react."
The Context Behind The Tweet
The amusing misunderstanding originated from one of Rishi Kapoor's birthday wishes for Twinkle, where he referred to his iconic debut film Bobby (1973). His original tweet read: “Happy Happy Birthday dear one! You were in your mum's tummy when I was serenading her in Bobby in 1973 lol."
The message was a nostalgic nod to the film's popular romantic track Aksar Koi Ladka, picturised on him and Dimple Kapadia, Twinkle's mother. However, the choice of words led to a flurry of gossip and wild assumptions online, with many misinterpreting the lighthearted tweet.
Rishi Kapoor Sets The Record Straight
The chatter grew loud enough for Rishi Kapoor to step in and clarify. He later tweeted, “Kuch logon ko problem kya hai? Kakaji and Dimple were married, Bobby was still incomplete, we shot that song when Dimple was 3 months pregnant. Kakaji-Dimple married in March '73. Bobby released Sept 28th '73. Twinkle born 29th Dec '73."
His clarification not only set the record straight but also added a touch of trivia for fans of Bollywood history.
Looking Back With Laughter
For Twinkle, known for her sharp wit and humorous take on life, the episode is now just another funny memory. What could have been a potentially awkward controversy has become a story she narrates with laughter, especially in the company of colleagues who understand the quirks of Bollywood life.
The anecdote also highlights how a playful remark in the age of social media can quickly snowball into a misunderstanding. Twinkle's ability to laugh at the mix-up, and Alia Bhatt's amused discomfort during the conversation, made the segment one of the highlights of the show.
Bobby, the film at the center of this quirky anecdote, was a landmark movie for both Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia, setting the tone for a new wave of teenage romance in Hindi cinema. That a single nostalgic reference to it could decades later cause such confusion only proves how deep Bollywood's memories run in the public imagination.
With her tongue-in-cheek narration, Twinkle reminded fans why she has carved a unique space for herself as Bollywood's most irreverent storyteller.
