Actor Aamir Khan, his ex-wives Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao, and his girlfriend Gauri Spratt were recently filmed traveling together in a single vehicle while returning from a family trip. The footage, which has gone viral, highlights the unconventional family dynamics of the Bollywood star as he prepares for his reported third marriage.
Viral Footage Sparks Public Curiosity
Social media users have been captivated by a video showing Aamir Khan, his former wives, and his current partner sharing a car. According to reporting by Maharashtra Times, the group included Aamir, Gauri Spratt, Kiran Rao, Reena Dutta, and Aamir’s son, Azad Rao. The footage captures a relaxed atmosphere, with Spratt and Rao seen conversing and laughing in the back seat.
The public reaction has been marked by surprise, with many observers questioning how such a harmonious dynamic is maintained within a high-profile family. Commenters on the viral clip expressed disbelief and admiration for the group’s ability to remain close, with some noting that such an arrangement is uniquely characteristic of the actor. In the landscape of Indian celebrity culture, where personal lives are frequently subject to intense scrutiny and traditional societal expectations, the visibility of this group dynamic represents a shift in how public figures navigate post-divorce relationships.
“Aamir Khan, how is this possible?” one fan asked, while another remarked, “What a family; there is no other family like this.” A third commenter added, “Only Aamir Khan can do this.”

Reports of Upcoming Marriage to Gauri Spratt
The recent family outing comes amid widespread reports that Aamir Khan is preparing to marry Gauri Spratt. While the actor has kept much of his personal life private, Loksatta reports that Khan confirmed his intention to marry Spratt during a conversation with Variety India. The couple is reportedly planning a wedding in Mumbai for July 5, following time spent in the United States.
Khan, who celebrated his 60th birthday last year, publicly acknowledged his relationship with Spratt in 2025. Since then, the couple has been a consistent presence at various events, including a recent celebration marking the 25th anniversary of the film Lagaan. That film, produced by Aamir Khan Productions and directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, remains a milestone in Indian cinema, having earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film. The anniversary event served as a high-profile platform where the family’s cohesive social dynamic was put on public display for the first time in an industry setting.
Khan’s Candid Reflections on Romantic Life
In addition to the viral travel footage, an older, previously unseen video of the actor has surfaced, in which he discusses his romantic nature. The clip, circulated alongside news of his upcoming wedding, shows Khan addressing his personal relationships with candid humor.
“I swear, I am a very romantic man, you can ask my wives,” Khan stated in the video, referring to his former partners. He further elaborated, “Actually, I am a very romantic man. I swear, I am very romantic. It feels a bit strange to say this, but you can ask my both ex-wives. I am telling the truth, because I am of a romantic nature.”

Khan also reflected on the influence of his professional work on his personal outlook, stating that his favorite films are romantic in nature. He noted that when he watches such movies, he becomes fully immersed in them, adding, “I believe in true love.” This public acknowledgment of his romantic philosophy provides context for his enduring, amicable relationships with Reena Dutta, his first wife with whom he shares children Junaid and Ira, and Kiran Rao, with whom he shares son Azad.
Contextualizing the Modern Family Dynamic
The intersection of Khan’s public romantic history and his modern family interactions has become a focal point of entertainment reporting this week. While the actor is known for his “Mr. Perfectionist” moniker in Bollywood—a title earned through his selective approach to scripts and meticulous involvement in film production—his ability to integrate his ex-wives into his current life with his partner appears to be a point of significant public interest.
In the broader context of Bollywood, the maintenance of such close-knit family ties following the dissolution of a marriage is infrequent. Typically, celebrity divorces in the industry result in limited public contact. However, Khan’s continued collaborative relationship with his former partners, often seen during festivals or family milestones, has established a new precedent for how high-profile families manage transitions. As the July wedding date approaches, media attention remains high. The recent joint appearances, including the Lagaan anniversary event and the shared car ride, suggest a conscious effort by the family to maintain a collaborative relationship, a dynamic that remains rare in the context of global celebrity culture.
