As Aamir Khan gears up for the release of his upcoming film 'Sitaare Zameen Par', the actor is also opening up about some deeply personal chapters of his life. In a recent interview, the Bollywood star spoke candidly about his journey through relationships, his failures in marriage, and how he has approached separation with honesty and maturity.

Aamir Khan on his divorces

Reflecting on the emotional weight of divorce, Aamir told Zoom, “Humare parivar ke liye bhi ye ek cheez hain jisse hum khush nahi hain. Hum khushi-khushi ye cheez nahi kar rahe hain. Lekin kuch circumstances aise aayein jisme humein lagta hain ki shayad humara rishta badal gaya hain. Toh meri thinking ye hain ki yaa toh main duniya ko jhooth bol sakta hoon aur pretend kar sakta hoon ki Kiran [Rao] aur main bohot khush hain aur hum log shaadi-shuda hain (My family also has to face this, and it is not a happy scenario. Certain circumstances have made us rethink our relationship. So my thinking is I can either pretend that we are quite happy).”

While the subject was serious, Aamir didn't lose his characteristic sense of humour. On the topic of his past relationships, he quipped, "Shaadi me main kamyab nahi hua hun, lekin divorce me main hua hoon (I wasn’t successful in marriage, but I’ve been successful in divorce)," adding a layer of levity to what is often a sensitive topic.

The actor was married to Reena Dutta and later to filmmaker Kiran Rao. He shares three children—Junaid and Ira with Reena, and Azad with Kiran. Earlier this year, on his 60th birthday, Aamir introduced his girlfriend Gauri Spratt to the media, and the couple has since made several public appearances together.

Aamir Returns to the Big Screen With Sitaare Zameen Par

Professionally, Aamir is back in the spotlight with 'Sitaare Zameen Par', a comedy-drama described as a spiritual successor to his 2007 landmark film 'Taare Zameen Par'. Directed by RS Prasanna, known for 'Shubh Mangal Saavdhan', the film stars Genelia D’Souza alongside Aamir in a heartwarming story that blends sports and social commentary.

An official remake of the Spanish film 'Campeones', 'Sitaare Zameen Par' follows the journey of a disgraced basketball coach who is compelled to train a group of children with disabilities for an upcoming tournament. The film is scheduled to hit theatres on June 20.
