Akshay Kumar, daughter Nitara get treated to gur-roti at elderly couple’s home: ‘Being kind costs nothing but means everything’

Actor Akshay Kumar has shared pictures from a recent encounter with an elderly couple. Akshay and his daughter Nitara knocked on the couple’s door for some water but they treated them to a meal as well.

“Today’s morning walk turned into a life lesson for the little one. We walked into this kind, old couple’s house for a sip of water and they made us the most delicious gur-roti. Truly, being kind costs nothing but means everything,” he wrote in a tweet. The accompanying pictures show him and Nitara walking into the home in one and posing with the couple in another. This is also one of the very rare instances that Akshay has shared a picture of Nitara with her face visible.

The actor, his wife, author Twinkle Khanna, and their kids Nitara and Aarav, and other members of their extended family are in Shillim, Maharashtra for a vacation. They celebrated Twinkle’s grandmother Betty Kapadia’s 80th birthday on Wednesday. Twinkle posted pictures from the holiday on her Instagram account and wrote, “Grandmother’s 80th with family, friends and loads of laughter #ShilimDiaries.” Twinkle, Akshay and Aarav were earlier seen at Amitabh Bachchan’s Diwali bash on Sunday and soon left for their holiday.
