Mumbai, March 14 (NationPress) The renowned Bollywood actor Aamir Khan astonished the Mumbai media by unveiling his new romantic partner, Gauri, just before his 60th birthday celebration. This revelation follows the announcement of his divorce from director Kiran Rao, known for her work on ‘Laapataa Ladies’, after 16 years of marriage.
Gauri marks the third significant woman in Aamir's life, following his marriages to Kiran Rao and Reena Dutta. Notably, Aamir first met Kiran on the set of the Oscar-nominated film ‘Lagaan’, which he produced, with Reena taking on the role of executive producer.
The actor was married to both Kiran and Reena for 16 years each before parting ways. He has two children with Reena: Junaid and Ira Khan. Junaid made his acting debut last year in the streaming film ‘Maharaj’ and was recently featured in ‘Loveyapa’. Ira, on the other hand, celebrated her marriage to fitness expert Nupur Shikhare in January last year.
With Kiran, Aamir shares a son named Azad, and they continue to co-parent amicably post-divorce. Aamir was also rumored to have a romantic link with actress Fatima Sana Shaikh, with whom he starred in ‘Dangal’, but he has not publicly addressed this, unlike his recent introduction of Gauri.
Aamir revealed that he and Gauri have maintained a friendship for over two decades, reconnecting just over a year ago thanks to his cousin Nuzhat Khan, who is also a friend of Gauri. She visited Mumbai a couple of years back, leading to their reconnection.
Gauri is a mother to a 6-year-old son and appeared somewhat anxious during her interaction with a crowd of journalists. Aamir's public relations team had to step in, urging the media to temper their excitement.
During the media interaction, Aamir answered several questions, with one of the most notable being that Gauri had also met his fellow superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
