Twinkle gives Akki a earful

A little birdie from Juhu tells us that Akshay Kumar's fiery biwi Twinkle Khanna was not happy with his generous act at the Star Screen awards.

Says a pink flamingo who landed on Juhu beach, "When Akki announced on stage that he was not accepting the award saying he felt it should to Aamir Khan for Ghajini, Tina was stumped. She gave her hubby a earful for sacrificing his trophy.

She didn't appreciate the act, or the way it was done." We hear the show organisers and the publication behind the awards are also upset with AK for disrespecting the award, and walking off without accepting the trophy.

So don't expect any awards from them next year. But after Chandni Choke... sorry Chowk... you shouldn't even expect nominations.
