Aamir Khan talks about his failures in marriages: 'Shaadi mein kaamyaab nahi hua, divorce mein...'
Aamir Khan is all set to return to the big screens after 3 years with Sitaare Zameen Par. He is on a promotional spree, leaving no stone unturned to market his upcoming movie in the best possible way. While doing rounds for promotions, Mr Perfectionist talked about his failures in marriages and shed light on his reported cameo in Lokesh Kanagaraj's next. In a candid chat with Zoom, Aamir Khan underlined that he can pretend or fake that his married life with Kiran Rao is happy, but that would be a lie. 'Humare parivar ke liye bhi ye ek cheez hain jisse hum khush nahi hain. Hum khushi-khushi ye cheez nahi kar rahe hain. Lekin kuch circumstances aise aayein jisme humein lagta hain ki shayad humara rishta badal gaya hain. Toh meri thinking ye hain ki yaa toh main duniya ko jhooth bol sakta hoon aur pretend kar sakta hoon ki Kiran aur main bohot khush hain aur hum log shaadi-shuda hain," said the actor. (For our family, too, this is one thing that we are not happy about. We are not doing these things happily. However, some circumstances have arisen in which we feel our relationship may have evolved. So my thinking is that maybe I can lie to the world and pretend that Kiran and I are very happy.) The 60-year-old joked about his divorces and said, "Shaadi me main kamyab nahi hua hun, lekin divorce me main hua hoon (I have not succeeded in marriage, but I have succeeded in divorce)." For the unversed, the actor has been divorced twice. He got separated from his first wife, Reena Dutta, after 21 years of marriage, and then parted ways with Kiran Rao, having spent 16 years in marriage. The Dangal actor introduced his girlfriend, Gauri Spratt, on his 60th birthday. Aamir Khan breaks silence on his 'rumored' cameo in Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie Apart from his relationships, Aamir Khan also confirmed his rumored cameo in Rajinikanth starrer Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The superstar mentioned that he didn't even hear the script and agreed to the guest's appearance because he is a big fan of Thalaivar. On the work front, Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par is slated to hit the cinemas on June 20th. The actor will soon join Rajkumar Hirani in the biopic about Dada Saheb Phalke. In addition, he signed a superhero action film with Coolie director Lokesh Kanagaraj, slated to go on the floors in the second half of 2026.

Aamir Khan found Shah Rukh Khan's Swades ‘boring', reveals why he rejected it
Bollywood's Mr Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, said he found filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Swades', starring Shah Rukh Khan, 'very boring' and revealed that he was first offered the 2004 film. In a viral clip from an interview with Zoom, Aamir said he said 'no to Swades,' because 'I found it very boring.' He shared that Ashutosh had first pitched the movie, initially titled 'Kaveri Amma', during the shoot for the 2001 blockbuster Lagaan. 'Ashu narrated the story to me when we were making Lagaan. It was titled Kaveri Amma then,' the actor said, adding that he had liked the story 'very much' at the time, and had decided to take it up next. Soon after Lagaan was released, the filmmaker began working on the script of Swades, an Aamir Khan Productions (APK) film. 'After Lagaan was released, we made Ashu sit with a writer. AKP was producing it,' said Aamir. Aamir Khan said the three-hour narration for Swades bored him so much that he rejected the movie. 'When the story was ready, Ashu narrated it to me. It was a three-hour-long narration,' he said. Sharing his honest review with the filmmaker, the actor said that he told Ashutosh that he got bored. 'I told him, 'Mai bore ho gya hu. It's very important for you to hear this reaction'.' He also told Ashutosh that what he is trying to say through the script 'is very correct, noble, and important', but 'itne boring tareeke se kahega toh mujhe maza nhi aaega.' 'Baki log ka mujhe pata nhi, lekin mai bore ho gya hu,' Aamir said, adding that he suggested the filmmaker to make it more interesting. Aamir Khan also shared that he has never watched Swades; however, he said he trusts that Ashutosh Gowariker must have turned it into a masterpiece. He also mentioned that the audience loved Shah Rukh Khan's work in the movie. Swades is still regarded as one of King Khan's finest films to date. 'I've actually not seen the film yet. Maybe he'd have corrected it and people would've liked it then. I did note that people loved Shah Rukh's work in it,' said the actor.
