Twinkle Khanna calls herself 'flag bearer of equality'; says her kids will 'wind up in therapy' for THIS reason
Recently, Twinkle Khanna shared her thoughts on equality and feminism and also mentioned that there is a certain independence that she enjoys when she is working.
Twinkle Khanna, who is now an author after her acting career, discussed her challenges in balancing various roles as a woman. She highlighted the contradiction of striving for equality in marriage while acknowledging that women often bear the brunt of household responsibilities. Twinkle is married to the renowned Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar.
Twinkle Khanna opens up on equality and feminism
During a recent interaction with Tweak India, Twinkle Khanna mentioned that despite considering themselves quite modern, women still find themselves responsible for tasks like cooking, managing the house, arranging curtains, and changing diapers, on top of holding a full-time job. She questioned how feminism has led them to this situation.
She added, “I was this big flag bearer of equality. But equality has meant double the work. It’s not okay. So I’m equal; you will treat me with respect, but I’m doing double of everything. It’s tough either way.”
She then mentioned that it's challenging if you don't work because there are other repercussions to consider. She further added, “There’s a certain independence that you enjoy when you are working because you feel a little bit like saying, ‘Okay, I’m bringing this much to the table, so I have a right to sit at this table.” 
Twinkle further mentioned that in the morning, when her daughter Nitara sees her with a computer, she automatically thinks Twinkle is occupied and turns away. Although Twinkle wants to spend time together, she feels compelled to resume work to make the most of her time. The former actress then humorously remarked, “They’re going to wind up in therapy regardless and blame us. So, I’m not worried about that.”
