At the press conference, Aamir shared details about his relationship, saying, “She is from Bangalore, and we knew each other for 25 years. But we connected a year-and-a-half ago. She happened to be in Mumbai, and we met accidentally. We kept in touch, and then it all happened organically.” He also revealed that Gauri had already met both Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.

Aamir was previously married to Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao, while Salman Khan, who also turns 60 this year, remains unmarried despite past relationships with several Bollywood stars.

Aamir Khan recalls going home and breaking out in tears for this reason

Aamir Khan
  • Aamir Khan opened up about the challenges he faced early in his career.
  • He recalled the missteps he made during that period.
  • He got about 300-400 film offers after the success of his debut film.

Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan recently opened up about the challenges he faced early in his career after his blockbuster debut in Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988), eventually making him go home and cry.

Speaking with writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar at the launch of Aamir Khan: Cinema Ka Jadugar, a special film festival by PVR INOX, the actor recalled the missteps he made during that period.

Following the overnight success of his debut film, Aamir was flooded with offers. “I got about 300-400 film offers,” he revealed. Without realizing the weight of his decisions, he signed multiple projects at once. “Back then, actors worked on 30 to 50 films simultaneously. Interestingly, Anil Kapoor did the fewest, with 33 films. Seeing that, I ended up signing 9-10 films at once. However, none of the directors I had dreamed of working with offered me any roles,” he admitted.

As production for these films began, Aamir quickly realized his mistake. “I was working three shifts a day. I was not happy. I would go home and cry,” he shared. Many of these projects, including Love Love Love, Awwal Number, and Tum Mere Ho, flopped. Reflecting on that difficult phase, he added, “The media dubbed me a ‘one-film wonder.’ Rightly so; I blame no one for that label.”

Despite setbacks, Aamir’s fortunes changed with Dil (1990), marking the beginning of his rise to superstardom. The Cinema Ka Jadugar festival celebrates his illustrious career as he turns 60 this week.

Despite staying away from social media, Junaid acknowledges that his family background plays a crucial role in securing opportunities in the industry.

Joining him in the conversation, his co-star Khushi Kapoor—daughter of filmmaker Boney Kapoor and the late actress Sridevi—also recognized her privileged position. “I have a lot to be thankful for.

Khushi Kapoor responds to being compared to mother Sri Devi by Aamir Khan

Khushi Kapoor
  • Khushi Kapoor is gearing up for the release of her film Loveyapa.
  • Aamir Khan noted that Khushi reminded him of Sridevi.
  • Khushi expressed gratitude but remained humble.

Khushi Kapoor is gearing up for the release of her much-anticipated film, Loveyapa, in which she stars alongside Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan.

Reacting to Aamir’s comments, Khushi expressed gratitude but remained humble. In an interview with Vickey Lalwani, she said, “It was very sweet of Aamir Khan to say that I reminded him of Sridevi. However, I don’t know if I would say that to myself.” She further emphasized, “Maybe that’s something for other people to notice, but I would never want to go anywhere near that or touch that.”

When asked if she planned to follow in her mother’s footsteps, Khushi was clear in her response. She stated that she preferred to carve her own path, saying, “I wouldn’t want to. I think I’m kind of finding myself as I go, and I don’t think following someone else would make that any easier.” She emphasized that she is still learning and evolving as an actor.

Meanwhile, Khushi and Junaid are actively promoting Loveyapa, which features a talented ensemble cast, including Grusha Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Kiku Sharda, and more. The film’s soundtrack has already created buzz, with songs like Loveyapa Ho Gaya, offering a glimpse into the lead pair’s relationship, and Rehna Kol, a romantic melody showcasing their on-screen chemistry.

Presented by AGS Entertainment and Phantom Studios, Loveyapa is directed by Advait Chandan and is set to hit theaters on February 7, 2025, perfectly timed for Valentine’s week.

Did Aamir Khan’s height ever affect him? Actor reveals

Aamir Khan's height
  • Aamir Khan’s height put him into an inferiority complex.
  • He admitted having insecurities related to his short height.
  • He explained that insecurities often arise in the beginning.

Actor Aamir Khan recently revealed that he felt insecure about his height early in his career. In a candid conversation with Nana Patekar on Zee Music Company’s YouTube channel, while promoting Patekar’s upcoming film Vanvaas, Aamir admitted to having an inferiority complex about his 5’5″ stature during his early days in Bollywood.

“Yes, I did. I used to feel that what if people don’t accept me because of my height. This was my fear,” Aamir shared. He explained that insecurities often arise in the beginning but fade over time. “Later, I realised that all of this does not matter at all. But at that time, some kind of insecurity creeps in,” he added.

This isn’t the first time Aamir has spoken about this issue. In 2012, while promoting Talaash, he recalled being called ‘tingu’ (a slang term for short). Over time, however, Aamir learned that appearance doesn’t define success. “The things that stress us out in the beginning, we later realise that these things don’t matter at all. What is important is how honestly you are working and how your work can enchant people.”

Last seen in the 2022 film Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir is set to return with Sitaare Zameen Par, a sequel to his acclaimed Taare Zameen Par.

Is Sitaare Zameen Par sequel to Taare Zameen Par? Aamir Khan reveals

Sitaare Zameen Par
  • Aamir Khan shared details about his new film Sitaare Zameen Par.
  • The film is being hailed as the spiritual sequel to Taare Zameen Par.
  • Aamir shared insights into the film’s theme, cast, and release timeline.

Aamir Khan has revealed details about his much-anticipated film Sitaare Zameen Par, which is being hailed as the spiritual sequel to his 2007 masterpiece Taare Zameen Par.

Speaking at the Red Sea International Film Festival, where he was honored for his contribution to cinema, Aamir shared insights into the film’s theme, cast, and release timeline.

“Sitaare Zameen Par is a sequel to Taare Zameen Par, a film that I directed some years ago,” Aamir said. “However, it is not a sequel in the sense that the characters do not continue from the previous one. It is a fresh set of characters with completely fresh situations and plot. Thematically, it is a sequel. It is saying the same things… actually, it is saying a lot more.”

He explained the film’s concept, emphasizing its exploration of human uniqueness. “Taare Zameen Par was about a child with dyslexia and how we often judge intelligence narrowly. This film takes that theme forward, celebrating our differences and the qualities that make us magical and unique,” he added.

Directed by RS Prasanna and starring Aamir, Darsheel Safary, and Genelia Deshmukh, Sitaare Zameen Par is set to release in mid-2024 after post-production wraps.

Aamir is also promoting Laapataa Ladies, India’s Oscar entry for Best International Feature.
