Aunt Twinkle Khanna’s birthday post for niece Naomika sparks interesting debate

Bollywood actress Twinkle Khanna posted a birthday wish for niece Naomika on Instagram, who celebrated her 18th birthday on Thursday, October 19. However, the actor-turned-writer’s fans pointed out that Naomika bore a resemblance to her grandmother, Dimple Kapadia, and mother Rinke Khanna.

Twinkle’s younger sister, Rinke, made her Bollywood debut with the 1999 film Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi. She went on to feature in popular movies like Jis Desh Mein Ganga Rehta Hain (2000), Jhankar Beats (2003), and Chameli (2004). Rinke won the Zee Cine Award for Best Female Debut in 2000. However, the actress quit the industry and moved to London following her marriage to Samir Saran.

Dimple Kapadia, Naomika’s grandmother, is one of the finest Indian actresses of all time. She made her Bollywood debut at the age of 14 in the Raj Kapoor directorial Bobby (1973), alongside fellow debutant Rishi Kapoor. And now, fans are debating how Naomika looks like her grandmother.


In her Instagram post, Twinkle wrote that her “stunning niece” turned 18. She added that she felt joy to watch Naomika grow from a little girl who was scared of her belly button to a smart and confident woman. Fans were divided in the comments section. Some wrote that Naomika looked like her mother “with a bit of Dimple gorgeousness,” while others opined that she had the same hair, face cut, and features as her aunt.
