and
more
handsome

whereas
Twinkle
shared
that
Aarav
has
been
her
teacher
just
as
much
as
she
has
been
one
for

Take
a
look!
Sharing
a
throwback
photo
with
Aarav
when
he
was
a
little
boy,
Akshay
tweeted,
"Can't
believe
this
day
has
come.
Happy
18th
Birthday
to
My
Boy!!Big
or
small
I
will
carry
you
in
my
arms
until
it's
time
for
you
to
carry
me.
Now
you're
taller
than
me,more
handsome
than
me,
with
a
Heart
10
x
the
size
of
mine.
The
world
can
only
benefit
from
you
being
in
it."
Twinkle
took
to
her
Instagram
handle
to
share
a
picture
from
the
birthday
celebrations.
She
wrote
as
caption,
"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," adding,
"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."
She
continued,
"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."
"I
am
already
missing
the
little
boy
you
were
but
am
so
proud
of
the
man
you
have
become.
#MamaBear
#MoustacheMusketeers," signed
off
Twinkle.
In
his
appearance
on
Bear
Grylls'
Into
The
Wild,
Akshay
had
shared
that
Aarav
tries
to
stay
away
from
limelight
and
insists
on
forming
his
own
identity.
