Earlier this year, Aamir Khan introduced his girlfriend Gauri Spratt to the media, revealing that the two have known each other for 25 years. Aamir also shares a warm and respectful relationship with his two ex-wives Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao. In a recent interaction, the actor-filmmaker opened up about his bond with his former partners Kiran and Reena, as well as his relationship with his girlfriend Gauri.
During an HT event, Aamir talked about how his exes are good friends and their blended family is happy. “I guess it shows we are good people. Matlab, what to say. Reena is an amazing person. She’s someone I have grown up with. I have spent 16 years with her, and the fact that we fell apart as husband and wife does not mean we fell apart as human beings. And I feel that there is a lot of love and respect in my heart for Reena and I truly value the time that I’ve spent with her,” he shared.
The actor, who has two kids with Reena Dutta – Ira Khan and Junaid Khan, added, “I grew up with her actually. We were both very young when we married. And she’s a fantastic person. So when we had our differences and we parted, I think we didn’t part as human beings because we didn’t feel like, I guess. And the same was with Kiran.”
Aamir got married to Reena Dutta in 1986, but the duo got divorced in 2002. He later tied the knot with Kiran Rao in 2005. However, they got separated in 2021.

Opening up about relationship with his second wife Kiran Rao, with whom he has a son Azad, Aamir Khan elaborated, “I think Kiran is an amazing person and she and I decided to part ways as husband and wife, but we are family. And I’m not kidding when I say that. I really mean it, we are family. So Kiran, her parents, my family, Reena, her parents, we are all actually one family.”
The Sitaare Zameen Par actor admitted that he didn’t expect to find love at the age of 60, yet, in girlfriend Gauri Spratt, he has found both happiness and calm. “No, I didn’t actually. I didn’t. To be very honest, I think I had reached a point where I felt I probably wouldn’t be able to find someone who can be my partner. I was not expecting it,” he said.

“Oh! She brings a lot of calm, she brings a lot of steadiness. She’s a really amazing person and I’m so fortunate actually and lucky I feel that I met her. To be honest I feel I’m very fortunate. While our marriages may not have worked, until our lives did, but I think I’m still very happy that I met Reena, Kiran and now Gauri in my life. There have been three people who have really contributed to me as a person in a very big way. I really look up to them in many ways,” Aamir concluded.
On the work front, Aamir Khan was last seen in RS Prasanna’s sports comedy drama Sitaare Zameen Par. The actor has Mere Raho, Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos and Lahore 1947 in the pipeline.
