Aamir Khan is gearing up for his next release Sitaare Zameen Par that's the remake of the Spanish film Campeones. After Laal Singh Chaddha, this is another remake by the actor. He has been giving a lot of interviews for the promotions and in one of them, spoke about his ex-wife Kiran Rao.
Aamir revealed, 'I'm a very loving person, but I had major red flags. One of them was how I handled hurt or anger, I would emotionally shut down. Whether it was Reena or Kiran, if I felt deeply upset, I would stop communicating altogether.'

He added, 'They would try to talk, apologise, make things right, but I'd shut them out completely. It was like hitting a wall. That level of ego, where you're unwilling to come down from your 'moral high horse,' is dangerous.'
The actor revealed some more details and said, 'She finally broke down and asked me what she had done wrong. She said she felt cut off from my life. I wanted to comfort her, to say 'It's okay,' but I couldn't. The words just wouldn't come out. That's when I realized how unforgiving I had become.'
Khan continued saying, 'I wasn't yelling, I wasn't reacting, I just went silent. And silence can be far more painful than shouting. It's much harder for your partner to handle.'
Khan made his Bollywood debut in 1988 with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak at the age of 23. 37 years later, his mother who's 90 years old is making her acting debut with his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par which releases in cinemas on June 20. The actor has even spoken about it in a statement that has gone viral.

Khan was quoted saying, 'Normally, Ammi doesn't say she wants to come to my shoot. So, I don't know what she felt, but the morning of the song shoot, Ammi called and asked, 'Aap kahan shooting kar rahe hain? Humko bhi aana hai shooting pe aaj' (Where are you shooting today, I also want to come).''

Sitaare Zameen Par first review: Sudha Murty calls Aamir Khan's comedy-drama an ‘eye-opener' that offers ‘deep philosophical lessons'
One of the most anticipated Bollywood films at the moment, RS Prasanna's Sitaare Zameen Par has been creating buzz for quite some time now. This is not just because the movie marks the return of Aamir Khan to the silver screen in a lead role after three years, but also since its trailer promises that the movie will be a heartwarming comedy-drama that offers us some respite amid the flurry of loud actioners we are bombarded with frequently. Now, author and philanthropist Sudha Murty, who recently watched the movie at a special screening, has shared her review of Sitaare Zameen Par. Calling it an 'eye-opener', she shared that the Aamir Khan-starrer is 'a beautiful film'. 'I feel the movie's an eye-opener. Many people don't understand such children whom we call 'not normal'. But this is a very beautiful movie where you understand that they are very sensitive and that they have a pure heart. They always smile, too, because they are so pure in their approach to life. These are great and deep philosophical lessons which we learn from these people (the characters in the film),' she shared after watching Sitaare Zameen Par. SCREEN Exclusive | Aamir Khan says he was asked to do an action film after Laal Singh Chaddha failure: 'I had many offers, but story of Sitaare Zameen Par entered my bloodstream' 'The movie is inclusive of these people, and they have their own kingdom of mind and work. This movie can bring about a lot of changes, actually. We should include them in our normal system and try to rehabilitate them in a normal way. Thank you very much for such a great opportunity to see a great movie by Aamir Khan,' she added. Featuring Aamir Khan, Genelia Deshmukh, Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishnan Varma, Vedant Sharmaa, Naman Misra, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain and Ashish Pendse, among others, Sitaare Zameen Par is penned by Divy Nidhi Sharma. Jointly produced by Aamir and Aparna Purohit, the movie boasts music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya, a background score by Ram Sampath, cinematography by Srinivas Reddy and editing by Charu Shree Roy. Sitaare Zameen Par will hit the screens on June 20.

Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan ‘never take advantage of their privilege': Karan Johar raves about Shah Rukh Khan's ‘simple, pure-hearted' kids
Filmmaker Karan Johar said that he takes a lot of inspiration from Gauri Khan, especially when it comes to parenting. He said that Gauri is the backbone of the family, and has impeccable instincts. 'Gauri Khan is always right,' he said in an interview, as he praised Shah Rukh's older children, Aryan and Suhana. He said that they understand that they come from immense privilege, but are incredibly well brought up people who want to work hard and stand on their own feet. He also said that Aryan needn't follow in the footsteps of his illustrious father and become an actor just because the world wants him to. 'Let him do what he wants. Yes, he's a great-looking guy; yes, he has immense personality; yes, when he walks into a room, heads turn. He wants to direct. Let him achieve in that zone, like I know he will,' Karan said in an interview with Bollywood Hungama. Aryan is set to make his filmmaking debut with an upcoming Netflix series set in the world of Bollywood. Suhana, on the other hand, made her acting debut in Zoya Akhtar's The Archies. She will next star alongside Shah Rukh in the film King, directed by Siddharth Anand. Speaking about Aryan and Suhana's hard-working nature, Karan said, 'Aryan is like my firstborn. I have a memory of holding Aryan in my arms and walking in London, singing a song. He remembers that song, I remember that song. When I see him direct a series today, I'm awestruck.' Also read – Aryan Khan is 'brave, wise, mature'; Amitabh Bachchan came to set in a helicopter, but he's very humble: Babil Khan Karan continued, 'When I see Suhana training for King, I'm awestruck. Look at how these kids have worked on themselves to be the talents they want to be, to create their individual identities, to go beyond their father's unattainable legacy. When I see them so hungry to achieve, my heart is full of joy. I want Yash and Roohi to be like them, as people. They've been raised by Gauri and Shah Rukh to be such good, clean, pure hearts.' Karan said that both Aryan and Suhana recognise their privilege, but want to stand on their own feet. 'They're so well-raised and well-mannered; hard-working, yet hungry to achieve. They understand their privilege, and they never take advantage of it. They're the simplest kids. In fact, Shah Rukh can indulge them and give them everything, but they want to make their own space in the world. I respect both of them for that immensely.' Aryan's show is produced by his father, as is Suhana's second film. Both projects feature the who's who of Bollywood among the cast.

A rare throwback video of Aishwarya Rai dancing with Aamir Khan to the classic song 'Tujhe Dekha To' from 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' is making waves online.

Though the event's details aren't clear, the unexpected pairing and the nostalgic soundtrack have quickly grabbed fans' attention. Mixed Reactions: Aishwarya Shines, Aamir Falls Short? While fans loved seeing Aishwarya and Aamir share the stage, reactions to their individual performances have been mixed. One comment on Reddit read, 'Aishwarya carrying the performance on her back.' Another one wrote, 'He looks so awkward.' Another one commented, 'The dress and the colour is so good!!! Also all the ads they did for the soft drink brands they looked dope and had a very addictive chemistry. I wanted more of Aish with mamu but only if he would have dropped his male ego during the shooting of mangal pandey and giving Aish a script like how she demanded instead of putting his own way onto her.

Never Co-Starred, But Always Talked About Despite their stature in Bollywood, Aishwarya Rai and Aamir Khan have surprisingly never shared screen space in a full-length feature film.
