Aamir Khan says ex-wife Kiran Rao gave him ’10-15 points’ of what he lacked as a husband after divorce: ‘Tum bolte bahut ho’
Aamir Khan said after their divorce, Kiran Rao gave him '10-15 points' about how he could have been a better husband

After 15 years of enjoying marital bliss, when Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao announced their divorce in 2021, it took everyone by surprise. However, what’s endearing about Aamir and Kiran is that they continue to be close friends, colleagues, and co-parent their 13-year-old son, Azad. They recently collaborated for Lapaataa Ladies and are currently seen promoting the film together. Aamir recently opened up about his separation from Kiran and revealed that he asked Kiran for feedback after the couple parted ways.
“Ek mazedaar cheez hai. Hum log ka divorce abhi hua hai aap log ko pata hi hoga. Ek din shaam ko main baitha hua tha, maine bola Kiran, kya lagta hai as a husband mujhme kya kya kami thi? What can I improve abhi aage chal raha hu life mein. (Here is an interesting anecdote: We recently got divorced, as you all may be aware. In the evening, after we called it quits, I asked Kiran, ‘What did I lack as a husband? How can I do moving forward?’),” shared the 3 Idiots actor while speaking at ABP Network’s Ideas of India Summit.
Not the one to mince his words, Aamir, highlighting the importance of open communication and self-improvement in relationships, further revealed how Kiran reacted to his question. Armed with a list of complaints, Kiran chimed in, chuckling, “She said, ‘Haan likho,’ Bakayda mujhe points likhwae gaye. ‘Aap bahut baat karte hain, aap kisiko baat nahi karne dete, apne hi point pe ghuse rehte hain.’ Kuch 15-20 points maine likhe hue hain. ‘Write it down!’ she commanded. Made me take note of her complaints. ‘You talk a lot. You don’t let others speak. You are stuck on your point.’ I wrote down 15-20 points!).”
The actors’ fans have taken to social media to react to his comment and praise his self-awareness. While some appreciate his openness and honesty, others wondered why the duo didn’t have this conversation before divorce.
Laapataa Ladies, which is produced under the banner of Aamir Khan Production (APK) and Kiran’s Kindling Productions. Kiran, who is directing a film after 14-year hiatus, recently revealed that the it was actually Aamir who got this story at a screenwriting competition in 2018. Kiran also opened up about Aamir being generous enough to let her and her team produce Laapataa Ladies under his banner.
