Bollywood actor Aamir Khan recently took the opportunity to share his thoughts on love and romance, offering a heartfelt reflection on these emotions that have been central to his personal life and career. Known for his roles in blockbuster films such as Lagaan, Dangal, and PK, Aamir has always kept his personal life relatively private. However, at the trailer launch of Loveyapa, a quirky romantic-comedy film starring his son Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, Aamir gave fans and the media an insight into his own understanding of love, drawing from his past relationships and his journey through life.
Aamir, who has been married twice — first to Reena Datta and later to Kiran Rao — spoke candidly about his experiences with love. Describing himself as a deeply romantic person, he joked, "Main bohot romantic aadmi hoon, maa kasam. Bohot funny lagta hai sunne mein, but meri dono biwiyon se puch lo," which translates to, "I'm very romantic; it may sound funny, but ask both my wives." His statement, delivered with humor, showed a side of the actor that fans often don’t get to see — his lightheartedness when discussing personal matters.
Despite the dissolution of his marriages, Aamir expressed immense respect and affection for both Reena and Kiran, emphasizing that his feelings toward them remain positive and respectful. "True love is really when you learn to love yourself, value yourself, and feel ready to hold someone else's heart with care," he added, providing a more profound perspective on what love means to him. This notion of self-love and care reflects Aamir’s growth over the years, both personally and professionally. He implied that true love transcends the typical fairy tale notion and involves mutual respect, understanding, and an emotional connection that remains intact even after relationships evolve or end.
Aamir's openness about his romantic nature and his approach to love offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of Bollywood's most beloved stars. While his public persona is often associated with his diverse film roles, Aamir's thoughts on love reveal a more nuanced and introspective side. His words resonated with many, suggesting that love is not just about grand gestures but also about personal growth, respect for others, and learning to cherish relationships, even if they don't last forever.
At the same event, Aamir also spoke about Loveyapa, the film that marks the theatrical debut of his son Junaid Khan. Directed by Advait Chandan, Loveyapa is a romantic comedy drama that blends humor with the complexities of love, a genre Aamir himself has often explored in his films. The film stars Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, and Aamir expressed great pride in seeing his son take the plunge into the world of Bollywood. Junaid's debut is highly anticipated by fans, and Aamir’s endorsement only adds to the excitement. "I am so proud of Junaid and Khushi, and I can’t wait for the audience to see them shine on the big screen," he shared.
Set to release on February 7, Loveyapa promises to be an entertaining and heartwarming film. The movie is already generating buzz, with fans eager to see how Junaid and Khushi handle their first major roles. Aamir’s involvement with the project, coupled with his support for his son, only adds to the film’s appeal. It is not just a father’s pride in his child, but also an indication of the evolving Bollywood landscape where star kids are stepping into their own, eager to make their mark.
Through his reflections on love and family, Aamir Khan provided fans with more than just promotional talk; he opened up about his own experiences and growth, blending personal wisdom with professional insights. His honest thoughts about love, self-value, and respect are a reminder that romance is a multifaceted and evolving journey — something that anyone, no matter their background, can relate to.
As Loveyapa prepares to hit theatres, the anticipation surrounding it is palpable, not just because it is a romantic-comedy, but because it is also a stepping stone for Junaid Khan, who carries the legacy of a renowned actor. Fans are excited to see how the son of Aamir Khan will fare in his debut role, especially with his father's constant encouragement and support.
