Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna’s son Aarav turned 18 today, and the proud parents did everything to make his day special. The star-couple celebrated their son’s birthday privately; mother Twinkle couldn’t hold her emotions and penned an emotional post expressing her love for her young man.

Twinkle recalled the past 18 years and expressed her happiness about the kind of man her son has grown up to. She shared a photo from his birthday celebrations and shared a note that said, “Happy 18th birthday, Aarav! Here is something I had written for you once, and to keep loosening the strings and finally cutting them off this year has not been easy. All these years, you have been as much my teacher as I have been yours. I learned optimism, kindness, and wonder from you as I taught you maths, a few manners, and how to switch the lights off when you leave the room. But looking at you growing up and listening to you repeatedly tell me how much you are looking forward to your independence, I have started realizing that when you finally leave my home, my world and step into your own, my lights will go off automatically. My world will be filled with a bleak darkness. Though whenever you return for a visit, I will light numerous days and pretend that this is not a permanent power failure; we are just celebrating Diwali. I am already missing the little boy you were, but I am so proud of the man you have become. #mamabear #MoustacheMuskeeters
