Twinkle Khanna is a big fan of mangoes, just like most of us are. For the 47-year-old author, mangoes are associated with childhood memories. She recently shared a glimpse of how summer in her garden looks like and in doing so, she took a trip down memory lane. Sharing a photo of Nitara tugging at a mango, Twinkle Khanna wrote: "A childhood wrapped up in mangoes. From the fresh Kairi sliced and sprinkled with salt and chilli to the abundance of its wondrous, tangy yellow pulp. A memory of tart flavours followed by a gulp of water, the aftertaste as fresh as spring water. A decade underlined by the arrival of wooden crates filled with Dasheri, Chausa and Langra."
"I wonder if there was a yellow stain on the corners of the mouth that lasted from April to June?" Twinkle Khanna added.
Twinkle said Nitara's fondness for mangoes made her "relive" her childhood memories: "Looking at her hands reaching out, grasping sunshine and sugar captured in paisley patterns, I relive all my past summers."
