Twinkle Khanna

She had a disastrous debut in Vipin Handa's Uff Yeh Mohabbat opposite newcomer Abhishek Kapoor. But being the star kid that she was, Twinkle Khanna very cleverly saved her career with a hit. By the time people could write her off, she teamed up with newcomer Bobby Deol and gave Barsaat. Twinkle Khanna, thus, saved herself. After Barsaat, Twinkle was supposed to have signed many more good films but none of her movies showed any traces of her pedigree. She might be the daughter of great Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, but when it came to movies, she had nothing to boast of. She kept giving a string of flops like Mr Aashiq and Dil Tera Deewana with Saif Ali Khan and Jaan (1996) and Itihaas (1997) with Ajay Devgan.

Before people could lose all hopes on her, she surprised everyone with Jab Pyar Kisise Hota Hai (1998) against Salman Khan and Baadshah opposite Shahrukh Khan. Her performance was appreciated and she came out quite good. Before she could relax back and define her career, two more of her movies International Khiladi and Zulmi (1999) with Akshay Kumar did miserably on the boxoffice.

Her pairing with Akshay on screen might not have resulted in a positive way, but off screen the two of them surely hit off and after much speculation and writing about, have tied the marital knot. The two newly married couple are scheduled to do many more films in the future.
