If the headline shocks you, then hang on. There is more coming up from the unstoppable Mrs Funnybones, a.k.a Twinkle Khanna when she talks on Koffee With Karan next Sunday with her husband.
This would be her first appearance on her Karan’s show. And she did drop a few bombs during the half-hour talk-show. The piéce de résistance is when Karan Johar — being Karan Johar — wants to know what her star-husband has that the Khan superstars (Shah Rukh, Salman, Aamir) don’t.
“A few extra inches,” is Mrs Khanna’s wise and witty reply. She compounds the risqué response with the observation that Karan Johar should stop looking at her husband’s crotch. Akshay of course didn’t know where to look. This is not the first time that his wife’s frank speak has embarrassed him.
According to a source close to the couple, “Even Karan who is known to be brazen and unapologetic about innuendos was embarrassed. But that’s Twinkle for you. She tells it like it is. Akshay who is just the opposite has gotten used to her no-holds-barred ways. In fact, for the longest time, he desisted from being accompanied by his wife to Karan’s show. But since Karan and Twinkle are childhood friends, he finally persuaded her to come on his show. Akshay had only one request — that his outspoken wife should not embarrass him. Looks like she didn’t pay attention.”
Phallic jokes have always been a big part of Karan’s talk show. This season kickstarted with Shah Rukh Khan commenting on Ranveer Singh’s ‘padded underwear’ in Befikre. “If it’s not padded, then I am a fan,” the mega-star complimented Ranveer. Now that’s some hard talk for fans.
