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 and my world will be filled with a bleak darkness. Though whenever you return for a visit, I will light numerous diyas and pretend that this is not a permanent power failure; we are just celebrating Diwali," Twinkle wrote on Instagram. Tinsel town celebs including Namrata Shirodkar, Huma Qureshi and Malaika Arora dropped comments on the post.

Akshay Kumar is currently shooting for his upcoming film 'BellBottom' in Glasgow. His wife Twinkle and children Aarav and Nitara Kumar have also accompanied the 'Rustom' actor to Scotland.
