Bollywood actor Kajol and author Twinkle Khanna`s views on “Two Much” Kajol and Twinkle became embroiled in a scandal. Twinkle`s comment on infidelity, in which she suggested one may disregard physical cheating by saying `raat gayi baat gayi`, sparked outrage. Twinkle has now clarified her opinion in an interview with The Times of India, noting that she said it in a lighthearted tone.
Twinkle Khanna makes a clarification
Speaking about the uproar surrounding her `raat gayi baat gayi` statement, Twinkle responded to charges that she was making “light of infidelity” by saying, “It was part of a light-hearted game.” It was not intended as a serious argument.”
She stated, “If there had been a meaningful argument, I would have said that we need to analyse where monogamy as a construct… When we transitioned from a nomadic existence to farming, a man and his claim to his offspring emerged, but monogamy is genuinely something that helps society grow and binds it together. That`s a genuine debate. This was merely a joke; it was a lighthearted time.”
What was the controversy about
Janhvi Kapoor and Karan Johar appeared alongside Twinkle and Kajol on an episode of Two Much in October. During one portion of the show, the hosts asked a tough question: “Which is worse, emotional cheating or physical cheating?” While Karan, Kajol, and Twinkle believed that physical misdeeds might be tolerated, Janhvi declared unequivocally that physical treachery is a deal-breaker for her.
Twinkle then recommended that people let go of such occurrences over time, using the term “raat gayi, baat gayi (What`s done is done, move on)” to signify that they can finally move on. However, Janhvi stayed firm and responded, “Baat nahi jaati (You can never move on).” Viewers praised Janhvi`s perspective and mocked Twinkle, Kajol, and Karan for attempting to justify cheating.
The talk show hosted by Kajol and Twinkle features open conversations and honest confessions from various celebrities. The show premiered with Salman Khan and Aamir Khan as guests and has subsequently featured a number of superstars, including Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, Kriti Sanon, Varun Dhawan, Akshay Kumar, Govinda, Karan Johar, Manish Malhotra, and others. Jemimah Rodrigues and Shafali Verma, stars of India`s women`s cricket squad, appeared as guests on a recent episode. The show is available to stream on Prime Video.
