How Aamir Khan's ‘accidental' meet with GF Gauri Spratt changed him from not wanting a partner after divorce to being in love?
Aamir Khan left all his fans pleasantly surprised when he introduced his girlfriend, Gauri Sprat, to the world. The actor has found love yet again for the third time in his life after separation from ex-wives Kiran Rao and Reena Dutta. But is he ready to get married for the third time? Sometime back, it was he who admitted that now he wouldn't get married as he is already 59. So, what has changed now? Talking to Raj Shamani in his podcast, Aamir Khan confessed that the arrival of his girlfriend Gauri Spratt has changed everything for him. It was after the divorce from Kiran Rao, the Laal Singh Chadha actor, that he had already aged, and it is not possible for him to go and find someone now. The actor further added that by this time, he had also started his therapy, and a realisation had struck him that he needed to work on his health first. Aamir also confessed that he has had a very deep relationship with both his ex-wives, and he felt that now he wouldn't find anyone with whom he would share the same love, respect and bond with. But then, by mistake, he crossed paths with Gauri Spratt. Sitaare Zameen Par star revealed that they met, connected, their friendship increased and soon turned into love. Before the actor met Gauri, he was sure of not wanting a partner anymore in life, and the reason was his healthy relationship with his children, siblings, and parents. In fact, Aamir admitted that he still shared a great bond with both his ex-wives, and they are an inseparable part of his life, which will never change. He convinced himself with the fact that no other relationship in his life would be as deep as these two, and he did not feel the need to have a partner anymore. But after he met Gauri, everything changed in his life for good. Talking about his work front, Aamir Khan is all geared up for the release of his upcoming movie Sitaare Zameen Par. This film also marks his return to acting after Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), which did not fare well commercially. Expectations are running high for this film, not just from fans, but from the industry as well. Moreover, it marks the comeback of Genelia Deshmukh to mainstream Bollywood cinema.

When Every Tourist On Eiffel Tower Vibed To ‘Aaja Sanam Madhur Chandni Mein'
Last Updated: The video shows the group singing the legendary Hindi song Aaja Sanam Madhur Chandni Mein. A group of Indian travellers transformed Paris's iconic Eiffel Tower into an impromptu Bollywood concert spot. Captivating passersby, they performed the classic Hindi song Aaja Sanam Madhur Chandni Mein, a romantic melody from the 1951 film Chori Chori, originally sung by legends Lata Mangeshkar and Manna Dey. The beautifully shot video captures the trio singing in perfect harmony near the Eiffel Tower, with spectators, many of them tourists from around the world, enjoying the soulful performance. Some are seen clapping along and swaying to the tune. This enchanting blend of classic Indian music against the stunning Parisian backdrop created a magical atmosphere that resonated deeply with viewers. The video's caption read, 'Every tourist enjoyed Indian song with us at the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France." It quickly went viral, earning praise for the group's spontaneous and heartwarming musical tribute. Indian music has often bridged cultural and language divisions, with people across nations appreciating it. Weeks back, Deanna Leigh, a 23-year-old travel vlogger from the United Kingdom, posted a hilarious video on Instagram about how she unexpectedly fell in love with India's 'Swach Bharat" jingle. She said, 'I heard it all the time in Jodhpur. I thought it was just a fun song people sang every morning." Deanna had no idea that the catchy tune blaring from loudspeakers was a call to take out the trash. She said, 'I didn't know. I just thought it was a cheerful morning tune." Sharing her opinion, Deanna wrote, 'My new favourite song in India! At one point, this was all I would hear in the mornings. I had no clue what it meant… but damn, what a banger!" In the video, a garbage truck is shown rolling down the street while playing charming music, leaving Deanna both amazed and fascinated. Prasoon Joshi wrote the song Swachh Bharat Ka Irada, which was sung by Kailash Kher. First Published:
