Ahead of Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt’s wedding, Rakhee Gulzar praised the actor and shut down criticism around his decision to marry at 60.
Rakhee Gulzar has spoken about Aamir Khan’s marriage to Gauri Spratt.
Aamir Khan is all set to tie the knot with his partner, Gauri Spratt, on July 5, 2026. The actor, who doesn’t shy away from expressing his love for Gauri, has earlier confirmed the news. Now, in a recent chat, Rakhee Gulzar, the veteran actress, has expressed her happiness over Khan’s upcoming marriage.
Speaking to Variety India, the reclusive Rakhee shared, “I am not in touch with the goings-on in the film industry, nor have I worked with Aamir Khan. But I do know he is a very sincere person. And I love the way he has maintained his friendship with his two wives (Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao) even after the marriage. It says a lot about him.”
Aamir’s marriage to Gauri has invited quite a lot of criticism online, but Rakhee doesn’t see a problem with the actor’s third marriage. “What is wrong with marrying at 60? Robert de Niro has been married twice and is now in a relationship (with partner Tiffany Chen), with whom he shares a daughter born in 2023. They had a child when he was more than 80 years old. Happiness in a marriage is not about age. I got married when Gulzar was almost 40.”
Aamir confirms marriage to Gauri
While speaking to the portal earlier, Aamir shared, “I’m currently travelling in the US. The news about the marriage is true. It’s on July 5,” he further added, “Now we both feel we are ready to take our relationship to the next level.”
Aamir Khan surprised fans on his 60th birthday in 2025 by introducing his girlfriend, Gauri Spratt, to the public. In a private gathering with media personnel in Mumbai, Aamir confirmed their relationship, revealing they had known each other for 25 years before reconnecting about a year and a half ago.
This will be Aamir Khan’s 3rd marriage
Aamir Khan was first married to Reena Dutta, with whom he tied the knot in 1986. He has two children with her: Ira Khan and Junaid Khan. The couple got divorced in 2002. Later, Khan married filmmaker Kiran Rao in 2005, and in 2021, they announced their separation. They also have a son, Azad, who was born through surrogacy. Aamir Khan shares a good bond with both his ex-wives, Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao. They remain on cordial terms.
