Twinkle Khanna<\/a> has always been open about her life and relationships. She was raised by her mother, Dimple Kapadia<\/a>, after her parents separated. Twinkle<\/a> often talks about how her mother played the biggest role in shaping her life. In a recent interview, she said that Dimple taught her how to be strong and succeed as a woman in a male-dominated world.Twinkle Khanna credits her mother for shaping her outlookWhile promoting her new book, Twinkle spoke to BBC India and reflected on the experiences that shaped her personality. When asked what influenced her most, she immediately credited her mother for being her guiding force. Sharing how her upbringing defined her outlook, Twinkle said, \u201cI am probably one of those women who have taken a step back to equality. I always thought that we (women) were superior, and I grew up with that notion. I grew up with a single mom, and we were all women in the house. My mother was the earning member.\u201d <\/p>\n

Recalling Dimple Kapadia\u2019s unmatched disciplineTalking about Dimple, she continued, \u201cI have this distinct memory of my mother. My sister and I used to have our mattress on the floor, and we used to share the room with my mother and aunt. My mother would wake up at 5 am and would work out around us. She was an actress with three shifts a day, and she had to look good while taking care of the house. I would look at her, and she was my superwoman, and she was even wearing tights. That set a precedent for me.\u201dFeminism is learned by watching, not teachingTwinkle said she was never taught about feminism in a direct way. She learned it by watching her mother and the way she handled things in daily life. She said, \u201cWe never spoke about feminism; that word wasn\u2019t there. But it was very clear that this is the way it\u2019s going to be. It has very clearly shaped my choices. I have been married for about 25 odd years, and so has my sister. We never thought about changing our last name; we are the Khanna sisters. I have a crazy aunt who keeps saying, \u2018You aren\u2019t Khanna sisters; you are pagal (mad) sisters.\u2019 I said if I had to change my name, I\u2019d change my first name. It\u2019s Twinkle, and I am actually happy with Khanna.\u201dDimple Kapadia\u2019s remarkable journeyIn 1973, Dimple Kapadia married superstar Rajesh Khanna when she was just 16 and he was 32.
