Aamir Khan's last film, Sitaare Zameen Par, performed well at the box office and earned a total of Rs 167 crore. Aamir Khan is enjoying the success of his recently released film Sitaare Zameen Par. He is gearing up for Coolie where he would be seen in a cameo role. On Tuesday, the actor was photographed at the Mumbai airport with girlfriend Gauri Spratt. In the clip, the couple is seen walking through the terminal. In the footage posted on a paparazzi page, we see Aamir wearing a casual printed kurta and trousers. He is seen walking behind as Gauri strolled ahead. Aamir briefly greeted the paparazzi in his signature style and moved towards the entrance. Ever since Aamir opened up about his relationship with Gauri, the duo have often been spotted together. Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par's Collection Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par performed well at the box office and earned a total of Rs 167 crore. Directed by RS Prasanna, the film was marketed as a spiritual sequel to Aamir's 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. While the original tracked the emotional journey of a dyslexic youngster, the forthcoming film focuses on the goals and accomplishments of 10 neurodivergent children. It marked Aamir's return to the big screen after a three-year absence since the release of Laal Singh Chaddha. Why did Aamir Khan Sign Coolie? Now, Aamir Khan will be seen in director Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie with Rajinikanth. At a recent pre-release event, the actor opened up about what drew him to the project. He said, 'Lokesh came to meet me. I didn't know why he was coming to meet me. He said, 'It's for Coolie. I want you to do a role in the film.' The moment I got to know it's Coolie and Rajini Sir's film… after many, many years, probably for the first time, I have said yes to a film without hearing the script, without hearing anything." With Lokesh Kanagaraj's distinctive storytelling and Rajinikanth's unparalleled screen presence, Aamir Khan's cameo has further heightened the anticipation for Coolie. The movie is scheduled for a major Independence Day weekend release, competing with Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan's War 2. view comments First Published: August 12, 2025, 14:57 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Unfortunately, his first film, Madhosh, didn't work. I was very worried, and I tried very hard to support his career. I did a film with him called Mela. I tried my best to help him, but I realised that this is the one field where nobody can help you. All I can do is pray to God that he takes my success and gives it all to him.
