Twinkle Khanna was in shorts during her mehndi, recalls celebrity mehndi artist: ‘Dimple Kapadia opened the door and…'
Twinkle Khanna and Akshay Kumar tied the knot 24 years ago in an intimate ceremony. The couple invited 50 guests and surprised everyone when they announced their wedding. Recently, mehndi artist Veena Nagda, who applied mehndi for Twinkle on her big day, recalled the time when she got an urgent call from Twinkle for a bridal mehndi, but since Twinkle did not reveal her identity, Veena was completely surprised when she saw the bride-to-be walking around in her shorts. In a chat with the YouTube channel Meri Sahelli, Veena shared that she can never forget Twinkle and Akshay's wedding as this one of the few times when she got a call from the bride herself. 'I will never forget Twinkle Khanna because she was the one who called me for her mehndi. She called me and said, 'You have to come tomorrow for the mehndi for the bride and 10 other people'. She called me just one day prior. I didn't know it was Twinkle who was calling me,' she said. Veena Nagda shared that she was given an address but when she reached there, a car came to pick her up and that's when she reached the actor's apartment. 'We went but we didn't know the exact destination. We were given someone else's address. We reached there and from there, a car came to pick us up and that's when we got to her house,' she said and added that when she rang the door bell, Dimple Kapadia welcomed her into the house.

She asked me if I was surprised, I still didn't get it. Twinkle came and she started checking out the designs so I thought it must be her friend's wedding. She was sitting in shorts. That's when she declared that it's my wedding and I want to get bridal mehndi. I was so suprised. She also told me that the wedding is happening the same day. The mehndi was in the morning. I wondered how will the mehndi get enough time to darken?' she recalled. Veena Nagda said that by the time she got done with the bride's mehndi, it was already 4 pm, and she was supposed to get married at 7 pm. 'By 5-6 pm, she removed the mehndi. But by the next day, the mehndi was dark and she called me and said, 'Veena ji, it's so dark now,'' she recalled. In an earlier chat shared on Tweak India's YouTube channel, Twinkle Khanna said that when Akshay Kumar expressed that he wanted to marry her, Dimple Kapadia asked them to live together before tying the knot. 'When my husband said he wants to marry me, my mother said, 'Nothing doing, you live together for two years. If you make it, then you get married',' she said. The couple did not follow that advice and chose to get married.

Vishnu Manchu on Akshay Kumar's character in 'Kannappa': 'I think it is Lord Shiva who chose him'
Vishnu Manchu's film 'Kannappa', releasing June 27, 2025, stars Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva, a role Vishnu believes was divinely chosen. The devotional fantasy-action movie features Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Kajal Agarwal, and will release in multiple Indian languages alongside 'Maa' and 'F1'. Vishnu Manchu is set to release his highly anticipated film 'Kannappa' on June 27, 2025. The movie, featuring stars like Preity Mukherjee, Akshay Kumar , Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Kajal Agarwal , will be available in multiple Indian languages. Ahead of the launch, Vishnu and Akshay appeared together in an interview to promote their devotional fantasy-action film. Akshay Kumar: The Perfect Choice for Lord Shiva In his interview with Pinkvilla, Vishnu revealed that while writing the script, Akshay was the only actor he envisioned for the role of Lord Shiva. He felt that Akshay's facial features, demeanor, and overall presence perfectly embodied the character, making him the ideal choice for the part. Divine Approval Behind Casting Decision He further said, "I did have a lot of people ask me if I am sure about Mr Akshay Kumar. I said that he's the only man I can think of. But spiritually speaking, I think it is Lord Shiva who chose him to play this character and not me. I could only propose. I got the approval from Lord Shiva". Challenges of Portraying Devotional Characters Manchu discussed the challenges of playing divine roles, noting that such characters are less common in the Hindi film industry but frequently portrayed in South Indian cinema through stories based on the Ramayana, Mahabharata, and other devotional themes. He believes that portraying these roles requires destiny, explaining that just as he was destined to play Kannappa, it was by Lord Shiva's blessings that Akshay Kumar was chosen to play Lord Shiva. Akshay Kumar as the Face of Lord Shiva for a New Generation He also emphasized that for the current generation, Akshay is the definitive representation of Lord Shiva. Kumar expressed that he feels very fortunate and empowered to have been chosen for such a role, acknowledging that opportunities to portray divine figures like Lord Krishna or Lord Shiva are rare. He also highlighted the success of the movie, considering himself one of the luckiest people because of this experience. Release Details for 'Kannappa' 'Kannappa' is set to hit theatres on June 27, 2025, releasing alongside the films 'Maa' and 'F1'. The multi-starrer Telugu fantasy-action film, featuring Vishnu Manchu, Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Mohanlal, Preity Mukhundhan, and Kajal Agarwal, will be available in multiple Indian languages.
