Aamir Khan Opens Up On Divorce From Kiran Rao; Says “There Was A Change In Relationship”

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao got married on December 28, 2005, but parted ways and got divorced 8 months ago.

The Bollywood superstar is celebrating his 57th birthday today and we wish him the happiest day.

In a recent interview, Aamir opened up about his divorce saying…

“Kiran ji and I love each other. We have a lot of respect and fondness for each other. And I understand that people don’t understand our equation. It’s difficult for people to understand. This is because, usually, we don’t see a bond like this (among couples who separate).”

“Kiran ji and I have had this discussion for a long time. Hum ek dusre ko saahi maano mein family maante hai. Be it Kiran ji’s, her parents, her brother, her sisters and my family…so Kiran ji and I are family. There was a change in our relationship as husband and wife. And we wanted to give respect to the institution of marriage. We are going to hold each other’s hands and move ahead. We are working together. We are also collaborating on the Paani Foundation. She lives in the same building, on the floor above,” he revealed.

He continued, “I have been very lucky. My first wife was Reena ji. We both were too young at that time. We had grown up together. Even after we separated, we are still together even today. This is because woh insaan bahut achhi hai. (Smiles) Aur unko lagta hai ki main insaan bahut accha hoon. Me, Kiran ji, Reena ji and Satyajit Bhatkal have collaborated on the Paani Foundation. In short, Reena ji and I are also working together. Usually, when couples separate, they tend to fight. But this didn’t happen, neither with Reena ji and me nor with Kiran ji and me. My younger sister Farhat got married to Reena’s younger brother, Rajeev Datta. So, you see, our family is quite connected to each other.“

He also revealed that there was no third party involved in either of his divorces. “In both these situations, that was not the case. When I divorced Reena ji, there was no one in my life. People believe that I was dating Kiran ji at that time but that’s not true. I did meet Kiran ji during the making of Lagaan (2001). However, we didn’t know each other so well then. 300 log the tab (unit mein aur usme se) ek Kiran ji thi!”
