Akshay and Twinkle whisk Nitara and Aarav off to Cape Town on Diwali holiday

Mumbai: Akshay Kumar, is quite the unabashed family man and this is no secret. The actor, who'd been busy shooting for his cameo for 'Naam Shabana,' whisked his family off on a quick vacation to Cape Town.

Wife Twinkle, who just released her second book, 'The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad, joined the actor along with daughter Nitara.

The two doting parents have been fiercely guarding the little one from the prying eyes of the paparazzi. They almost never reveal her face even in the pictures they share, an act which has become customary of sorts.

Son, Aarav Kapoor also joined his parents on the trip.

Nevertheless, we respect the power couple's need for privacy and their protectiveness towards their youngest.

After all, 'Khiladi Kumar' gave us the best of movies this year and is set for an even better cluster of releases for 2017. Deserved rest for the deserved best.
