Aamir Khan on The Great Indian Kapil Show: Aamir Khan appeared on Kapil Sharma’s show ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ on Netflix for the first time. He has never been a guest on Kapil’s show.

Aamir Khan recalls the incident when Rina was in labour
During the episode when Kapil asked him as an actor does he observe people’s behaviour, Aamir replied, “Let me give you an idea of what I notice. It was the day when Junaid was about to be born. Reena Ji was in labour. We were at the hospital. And as a good husband, I practised some breathing exercises. As the labour got intense, I tried to calm her down with it. But I got slapped, followed by, ‘Stop this nonsense!’ Reena Ji was in immense pain. She even bit my hand." 

On human emotions
Expounding on his observation of human emotions in moments of intense pain, Khan said, “Later, I realized what was happening around me. I noticed one thing when a person is in immense pain… like what women go through during childbirth. I didn't even plan this. It is just happening to me. I looked at Reena's face and when she was experiencing that pain… normally we think that a person's face would contort with pain… but it is not that. When the pain is immense, the expression is of surprise. It is disbelief. A person is in denial. She could not fathom the intensity of her pain. That I noted as an actor. Later I said this to Reena when she came home with Junaid, and she was furious! (laughs)” 

Aamir Khan and Reena got a divorce in 2002. The two have a son Junaid Khan and a daughter Ira Khan. Aamir then married filmmaker Kiran Rao, they have a son, Azad Rao Khan. The two got divorced in 2021.
