It’s\u00a0Aamir Khan<\/a>‘s birthday, and his ex-wife, filmmaker Kiran Rao, cannot keep calm. To wish the actor, Kiran has shared a picture clicked during Aamir’s daughter Ira Khan’s mehendi festivities on her Instagram Stories. In the frame, Aamir and Ira can be seen sitting in the lush green garden. While Aamir’s hand rests on Kiran’s shoulder, she has also wrapped her arm around the star’s back. Aamir is looking into the camera and Kiran flashes a million-dollar smile. To wish the star on his special day, Kiran Rao wrote, \u201cHBD to my Chotelal.\u201d She also added two red heart emojis to the text. Did we hear aww, already?<\/p>\n

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao worked together in\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>. The duo started dating in 2004 and got married in 2005. They parted ways in 2021. Kiran and Aamir continue to co-parent their son Azad.<\/p>\n

Before Kiran Rao, Aamir Khan was married to Reena Dutta. In a recent interview with\u00a0Zoom<\/a>, Kiran clarified that she\u00a0started dating Aamir after his divorce from Reena<\/a>. She said, \u201cLots of people think that Aamir and I connected on\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>, we absolutely did not. He had his own life going on. In fact (he) went through his divorce after that. Aamir and I actually got together during\u00a0Swades<\/em>\u00a0because he was going to be shooting\u00a0Mangal Pandey<\/em>\u00a0and they were recceing in and around where we were shooting\u00a0Swades.\u00a0<\/em>We had just shot a couple of commercials together with Ashu for Coke.\u00a0Coke Punjabi<\/em>\u00a0and all of those. And that is where Amir and I reconnected, because like for 3-4 years after\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>, I had not really been in touch with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kiran Rao continued, \u201cIn fact on\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>, I barely had any interaction with him (Aamir Khan) because he had his own make-up artist. I was dealing with most of the other actors. Of course, I was dealing with him as well, but Nicole used to do only his make-up. I had like 50 actors to put through all the other makeup departments. So on\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>, we had a friendly relationship and I kind of hung out with him. But I had my own gang. I was seeing somebody else on\u00a0Lagaan<\/em>. That’s another story. But when we did start hanging out in 2004, everybody assumed that it had started and that this had caused the divorce, which was not the fact.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the professional front, Kiran Rao recently directed\u00a0Laapataa Ladies<\/em>. The film released on March 1, was co-produced by Aamir Khan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
