Twinkle Khanna and Akshay Kumar's son Aarav Bhatia turns 20 on Friday.

Twinkle Khanna shared a couple of pictures of a smiling Aarav, seemingly sitting in a car, surrounded by a lot of balloons, one of which said ‘Happy birthday’. Alongside the pictures that she posted on Instagram, Twinkle wrote a long note. "And he turns 20! It’s hard enough raising them, but it’s harder to finally let go. The problem is we create each block of their being. Pile it together in a structure we see fit when they are little. We do this year after year, and get so used to it that we forget that those blocks finally belong to them,” she wrote.

The actor added that it has been hard to ‘step back’ but she is proud to see Aarav making it on his own now. “It’s been hard to step back but I am so proud of what this wonderful boy is building with his blocks. Happy Birthday Aarav,” her note concluded.

Previously, Akshay told Hindustan Times that Aarav is just a teenager who is ‘enjoying his life’. “There’s no need to discuss his career right now and put pressure on him. I feel that [kids feeling pressure] will happen only if the parents – in a way – put some kind of burden. I am very clear that whether my kids want to become a painter, doctor or open a restaurant, I am fine,” he said.
