Akshay, who is celebrating his birthday tomorrow, was left red-faced when Twinkle gave a rather sensational answer to host Karan Johar's question. When the filmmaker asked, "What does Akshay have that the Khans don't?" Without much ado, she replied, "Some extra inches!" Karan looked stumped. Reacting to his expression, Twinkle added, "Don't look at his crotch. I meant his feet. You always have your mind in other people's crotches. It’s his feet-size — 12."

During the episode, Twinkle also revealed, "When we were first dating, on my birthday, he got me a crystal paperweight. A paperweight! I don’t know what he thought, that I would be very impressed with this paperweight." Akshay added, "Actually, I had forgotten her birthday. Let me honestly tell you. I had forgotten her birthday and then when I realised it was her birthday, there was no time to go and buy. Paperweight was there in my house so I quickly wrapped it (laughs)." Twinkle then shared, "He gave me a paperweight, so I told him that day, ‘One day, I will make sure you buy me a diamond as big as this bloody paperweight!’ So I made sure."
