Revealing that she has only seen two films of Aamir Khan — Lagaan and Dil Chaahta Hai — Gauri said, “I wanted someone who was kind, a gentleman, and just caring.” In response, Aamir, in jest, said, “And after all that, you found me?”

Talking about Gauri, Aamir said, “I was looking for someone I can be calm with, who gives me peace. And there she was. I have tried to tell her how it will be, the media madness, and prepare her somewhat for it. She isn’t used to it. But we are hoping that you guys will be kind.”

At the same event, Aamir shared that he had known Gauri for 25 years, but they were not in touch until two years back, and they fell in love. He also shared that Gauri has no connections with the industry. “She grew up in Bangalore, and her exposure was to different kinds of films and arts. So she doesn’t watch Hindi films. She has probably not seen much of my work, either. She doesn’t see me as a superstar but as a partner. But I do want her to watch Taare Zameen Par,” shared Aamir.
