They say once the heart breaks, no matter how tactfully you try to mend it, the cracks are visible. However, in the case of Aamir Khan and his ex-wives, Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao, it appears they have moved past those cracks. Speaking about his equation with his ex-wives, Aamir, in an exclusive conversation with ETimes, shared how, despite parting ways, they all are a part of each other’s families.
We are a family, says Aamir Khan
“Reena and Kiran are both really wonderful people. And so, the thing is that we may decide to part ways as husband and wife, but as human beings, we are still very much together,” said Aamir Khan.He continued, “In fact, the meeting I was in just before I spoke to you was a Paani Foundation meeting where Kiran, Reena, and I, all of us, were together.” Highlighting their beautiful bond, Aamir stated, “We are family. Reena is very much family, and so is Kiran. And I’m as much a part of Reena’s family and Kiran’s family, even today, as we speak.”
‘Sitaare Zameen Par ’ – a break from Bollywood ’s action movie trend
In the current times, Bollywood is cashing huge on the action genre. It is all about the high-octane fight sequences and gory blood-dripping scenes. And in the midst of it, Aamir Khan released a heartwarming movie focusing on the challenges and beauty of special kids – ‘Sitaare Zameen Par.’ Speaking about it, he said, “After two or three films (action movies), people get tired of that. I think what people really want to watch is good stories, unusual stories.”“Original stories. Original, well, I mean, this(Sitaare Zameen Par) is technically not an original film. For India, it’s an original film. Yes. So something which is new, something which is different, something they haven’t seen before. And a story that really connects with their hearts. That’s what I always feel. So, irrespective of genre, even if you’re doing an action film, it’s not enough just to have great action set pieces,” concluded the actor.
