And now, Akshay mentioned why it is important for the two of them to brush things related to politics, under the carpet.
In an interview with ANI, Akshay Kumar opened up about having a different political outlook than his wife, Twinkle Khanna. For the unversed, over the years, Akshay has taken an active part in supporting the government’s initiatives. But on the other hand, Twinkle prefers to talk about her political opinions through her columns. Thus, when Akshay was asked about the certain differences he and his wife have in matters of politics, he mentioned how they don’t impose their thoughts on each other. However, the actor also mentioned that they avoid political discussions at home to maintain the peace. He shared:
“My wife’s thinking about politics is different than me. We don’t impose on each other. We are completely different. We try and avoid that discussion. That is one discussion we try and avoid because there’s no point. You know how the other person thinks and you know how you think.”
