The little one also seems to be keeping her mother, actor-turned-author Twinkle Khanna on her toes. Twinkle had recently shared a hilarious post through Instagram with a photo of her own face on which the make-up was done by Nitara. She lighted her eyebrows by comparing them to the late American comedian Groucho Marx's brows and wrote a funny caption, "The little one has given me a fine makeover. Brows on fleek and all that jazz. @namratasoni watch out-you have some serious competition!"
