Twinkle Khanna has shared an excerpt from a book which has a mention of her relationship with her actor mother, Dimple Kapadia. It talks about how Twinkle used to carry the luggage of her “star mother” at airports.
Sharing a glimpse of the book titled On Camera Off Camera by Bhavana Somaaya and the excerpt, Twinkle wrote, "Snapshots of the past. This book by noted film critic and editor @bhawanasomaaya is delightful with anecdotes and sometimes an in-depth analysis of the people within their celluloid trappings. This brought back some wonderful memories. #mustread."
The excerpt is about how the writer met Dimple and her mother at the Mumbai airport in 1994 while waiting for their flight announcent. She says Twinkle was weighed down by the heavy load on her shoulders as she sat on a chair. As the writer told her that she should enjoy her freedom until she becomes a star and is surrounded by bodyguards, Twinkle replied, “I can't say about the future but at the moment I'm serving as a spot boy for my star mother.” When she asked about why Dimple why carrying so much weight, she replied, “Because my mother doesn't like checking bags, she hates waiting on landing, so here I am playing the coolie for the queen.”
