Mumbai: Actors Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna are one of the cutest couples of the Hindi film industry. Today they completed 19 years of togetherness.

On their wedding anniversary, let us tell you about their love story and how it started.
Akshay and Twinkle worked together in some films. During an interview, Akshay said that he and Twinkle first met during a photoshoot for Filmfare magazine and developed an instant liking towards each other.
Initially, Twinkle and Akshay did not think that they would reach this far in their relationship. Twinkle revealed that it all started as a fling. The two were shooting for a film together and had an outdoor schedule for around 15 days. And Twinkle thought that the fling would last for only 15 days. But eventually, the two fell for each other and the rest, as they say, is history.
In an interview, Akshay said that when he went to meet her mother Dimple Kapadia to ask for Twinkle’s hand, Dimple thought that he was gay and would spoil her daughter’s life.
