In a recent revealing interview, Bollywood actress Rakul Preet Singh has shed new light on the much-discussed marriages of two of Hindi cinema's most enduring power couples - Ajay Devgn with Kajol and Akshay Kumar with Twinkle Khanna. Her comments come amid ongoing speculation about these relationships following controversial statements made by Kajol and Twinkle on their recently concluded chat show 'Two Much'.
The Backstory: Controversial Comments Spark Debate
The entertainment industry and fans alike have been buzzing with discussions about Bollywood marriages ever since Kajol and Twinkle Khanna's chat show 'Two Much' concluded its run. During various episodes, both celebrities made statements that raised eyebrows across social media platforms and beyond.
Most notably, both women suggested that physical infidelity might not necessarily be a deal-breaker in relationships. In another particularly controversial moment, Kajol remarked that marriage should potentially have an expiry date. These comments immediately went viral, with netizens and media outlets speculating about whether these views reflected the actual state of their long-standing marriages.
Rakul Preet's Insider Perspective on Ajay and Kajol
During her conversation with interviewer Siddharth Kannan, Rakul Preet Singh provided intimate details about what she has observed of Ajay Devgn and Kajol's relationship dynamic. Having worked closely with both actors, she offered a unique perspective that counters the recent speculation.
'I can't really speak on their behalf, but whatever I get out of it is that there is a very solid friendship,' Rakul shared. 'There is trust. Social media will write something or the other every day but they have stood the test of time because they... when there is friendship, when you like spending time with each other...'
The actress went on to describe Ajay Devgn as a dedicated 'family man' who often has his son Yug on set when the boy isn't in school. She emphasized that both Ajay and Kajol, having been in the industry for decades, have weathered numerous seasons of speculation and rumors.
'Ajay sir is such a family person. He has been in the industry for 30 years so he has seen lots of seasons of all of this. And both Kajol and Ajay are stars. I feel trust, faith, friendship, it is very essential to have all that as a base of any relationship,' Rakul elaborated. The couple, who tied the knot in 1999, have indeed demonstrated remarkable longevity in an industry where relationships often face intense public scrutiny.
Akshay and Twinkle: A Relationship Built on Humor
When the discussion turned to Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna's marriage, Rakul Preet painted a picture of a couple whose bond is strengthened by mutual humor and lighthearted interaction.
'I feel they have a very fun chemistry,' she observed. 'They both keep joking with each other and both of them are hilarious.' This insight into their relationship dynamic suggests a partnership built on friendship and shared laughter, elements that have clearly contributed to the durability of their union since they married in 2001.
Seasoned Stars Unfazed by Speculation
Rakul Preet Singh made a significant point about how veteran actors like Ajay Devgn, Kajol, Akshay Kumar, and Twinkle Khanna handle media speculation and public scrutiny. According to her, these are 'veteran actors who have seasons upon seasons of these kinds of stories' and have developed the resilience to navigate such conversations without being significantly affected.
This perspective is particularly relevant given that neither the couples themselves nor their representatives have felt compelled to officially clarify or address the comments made on 'Two Much'. Their silence in the face of widespread speculation speaks volumes about their confidence in their relationships and their understanding of the entertainment news cycle.
The enduring marriages of both couples - with Ajay and Kajol celebrating over 25 years together and Akshay and Twinkle marking more than 23 years - stand as testament to their ability to maintain strong bonds despite constant public attention and the unique pressures of Bollywood life.
