| Amir Khan with Kiran Rao |
They met on sets of the Ashutosh Gowariker-directed Lagaan (2001), one of the most commercially successful Indian movies, where the former was an assistant director. Their romance, Khan said in some interviews, bloomed later when the actor was going through the process of legal separation from his first wife, Reena Dutta. Khan and Dutta, who have a son, Junaid, and a daughter, Ira, together, divorced in 2002.
The marriage of Kiran Rao and Aamir Khan — they tied the knot on
December 28, 2005 — has been one of the most creative associations of
Indian cinema, bringing together one of its biggest superstars and a
cinema lover who aspired to make her mark as a writer-director.
Actor Aamir Khan and filmmaker Kiran Rao have announced their divorce after 15 years of marriage in a joint statement. The couple said that they will co-parent their son, Azad Rao Khan, as well as continue with their professional partnership on Paani Foundation and ‘other projects that (they) feel passionate about’.
In a joint statement, the couple said they were living separately yet
sharing their lives the way an extended family does. “We will also
continue to work as collaborators on films, Paani Foundation, and other
projects that we feel passionate about,” the statement read.
