Aamir Khan has opened up about his unique post-divorce relationship with ex-wife Kiran Rao, emphasizing that they are more like a family than estranged partners. The duo, who tied the knot in 2005 and officially separated in August 2021, have managed to maintain an amicable bond both personally and professionally.

In a recent interview, the versatile actor challenged the conventional belief that divorces inevitably lead to animosity. With a touch of humor, Aamir questioned, “Has a doctor ever claimed that divorce turns you into immediate enemies?” He expressed his gratitude for the fortunate presence of Kiran Rao in his life and highlighted the profound connection they share on both human and emotional levels.

“This is not something a doctor has said, that the moment a divorce happens, you instantly become enemies. I consider myself lucky that Kiran came into my life, and our journey together has been incredibly fulfilling, both personally and professionally. We have created a lot together, and moving forward, we are still together,” Aamir said.

The actor emphasized the familial nature of their relationship, acknowledging Kiran’s intelligence and even playfully mentioning the occasional scolding he receives from her. “We are like a family. Her mind, intelligence… even when she scolds me a couple of times, it’s fun. We are emotionally and humanly connected, and we will always be like a family,” Aamir added.

Despite their divorce, the duo continues to collaborate on various projects. A testament to their enduring bond, Kiran Rao’s upcoming directorial venture, “Laapataa Ladies,” produced by Aamir Khan and Jyoti Deshpande, is scheduled to hit theaters on March 1.

The couple’s ability to navigate their personal and professional lives with mutual respect and understanding sets a positive example in an industry where relationships often face public scrutiny.
