Actor Aamir Khan confirms romantic relationship with Gauri

Aamir says he has already introduced his new love interest to Shah Rukh and Salman

Bollywood’s widely celebrated actor Aamir Khan has broken silence on longstanding rumours about his personal life, revealing that he is in a relationship with a woman named Gauri Spratt, a resident of Bengaluru in India.

A day before his 60th birthday, Khan disclosed his relationship status at a Mumbai hotel, marking the first time he has publicly spoken about Gauri.

According to a report published by NDTV, an Indian news media company, the two have been in a relationship for nearly 1.5 years.

“Gauri and I met 25 years ago and now, we’re partners,” he said.

“We’re very serious and committed to each other.”

The actor further shared that he had introduced Gauri to his close friends, fellow superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, at his Mumbai residence.

When asked for more details about his girlfriend, he said she works in a production company.

Khan also requested the media to refrain from publishing photographs of Gauri, emphasising his desire to maintain privacy in their relationship.

At his pre-birthday meet-and-greet, the Lagaan-famed actor also sang a few lines of the song “Kabhi Kabhi Mere Dil Mein” as a gesture of affection for her.

“I don’t know if it is appropriate to get married at the age of 60,” he remarked.

“My kids are very happy. I am very fortunate to have such great relationships with my ex-wives.”

For months, speculation swirled over Khan’s frequent visits to Bengaluru.

Addressing this, he explained, “There is less media coverage there. I used to fly there to meet Gauri.”

The actor also revealed that he had planned a dinner on Friday night with family members, where Gauri would be present.

Following his divorce from filmmaker Kiran Rao, Khan was linked to actress Fatima Sana Shaikh, though those rumours eventually faded.

Reports had previously suggested that he had introduced a woman from Bengaluru to his family, now identified as Gauri.

Khan’s personal life has long been a subject of public interest.

He married Reena Dutta in 1986, before his breakthrough in the film industry, and the couple had two children, Ira and Junaid.

Their marriage ended in divorce in 2002.

In 2005, he wed Kiran, whom he met on the set of Lagaan, where she worked as an assistant director.

They share a son, Azad Khan.

In 2021, the couple announced their separation, yet they have maintained a close relationship, collaborating on film projects, including Laapataa Ladies.

Despite their divorce, Khan and Kiran continue to be seen together at family and industry events, presenting a unified front.

For a time, rumours swirled that Khan was preparing for a third marriage with Fatima.

However, with his confirmation of his relationship with Gauri, such speculation has been put to rest.
