Summary
- Twinkle Khanna recalls Rishi Kapoor's birthday tweet led to her being mistaken as his "illegitimate daughter"
- Alia Bhatt's awkward reaction during the story
- Rishi Kapoor later clarified the tweet was a light-hearted reference to his 1973 film "Bobby"

In the latest episode of the chat show "Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle," former actress Twinkle Khanna recounted a humorous incident involving the late Bollywood star Rishi Kapoor. Khanna revealed that a birthday tweet from Kapoor once led to a hilarious misunderstanding, with many assuming she was his "illegitimate daughter."
Khanna narrated the story, explaining that Kapoor had tweeted a quirky birthday wish for her, referencing his 1973 debut film "Bobby" with Dimple Kapadia. The tweet read: "Happy Happy Birthday dear one! You were in your mum's tummy when I was serenading her in Bobby in 1973 lol." This lighthearted message, however, caused confusion among Kapoor's followers, who thought Khanna was his illegitimate child.
The incident prompted Kapoor to later clarify the situation, explaining that "Bobby" was still in production when the song was shot, and Dimple Kapadia was only three months pregnant at the time. Khanna found the entire situation quite amusing, even noting Alia Bhatt's awkward expressions during the retelling of the story. "I am not your sister-in-law, it was a mistake," Khanna added, addressing Bhatt directly.
The anecdote provides a glimpse into the camaraderie and humor shared between the two Bollywood veterans, Twinkle Khanna and Rishi Kapoor, even in the face of a harmless misunderstanding.
