As Aamir Khan celebrates his 60th birthday today, March 14, 2025, his 1947: Earth co-star Nandita Das took to Instagram to share a heartfelt birthday wish.

Nandita wrote, "Adding my voice to all those who are today wishing Aamir Khan a very happy 60th B’day."

Reflecting on their first meeting, she shared, "I first met Aamir in 1997/8 for Earth (in India it was called 1947 Earth…we like to spell out things!) I think it is one of his finest performances. Even though he betrays me in the film (spoiler!), we really got along and our friendship continued." She also posted a picture from 1947: Earth to mark the occasion.

Revealing an interesting anecdote, Nandita disclosed that Aamir wanted her to be part of his 1999 romantic film Mann.

"Soon after, he was keen for me to do the film, Mann. I am sure the director, Inder Kumar, and producer Ashok Thakeria were unhappy with the choice! This dark girl who had done films like Fire and Hazaar Chaurasi ki Maa for this big commercial film. No way! But who could say no to Aamir! I too was not keen at all as films weren’t something that I was serious about. But as Aamir was, a photoshoot was organised where I was made to look fairer than him! After that, I was sure I didn’t want to do the film! Even when I meet them all today, we laugh about it! I am sure when they see this photo, it will bring a smile to their face. But Aamir, thanks for your trust in me."

She also shared a throwback picture from the photoshoot.

Concluding her post with warm wishes, she wrote, "We have met here and there since. And at 60 Aamir remains a grounded man full of wonder and dreams. May all your dreams come true, and may you always dream wisely! Hope you had a great day!"

Her final picture in the post was a recent one of her and Aamir.
