Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan recently opened up about his personal life and ambitious upcoming projects, confirming his deep connection with Gauri Spratt and revealing plans for an epic “Mahabharat” film series.
A Heartfelt Revelation: Gauri Spratt and a “Committed Space”
Aamir Khan shared intimate details about his relationship with Gauri Spratt, emphasizing their strong bond. He stated that they are “really serious about each other” and are in a “very committed space.”
While discussing the possibility of formalizing their union, Khan candidly admitted, “in my heart, I’m already married to her.” He noted that the decision to formalize their marriage would be made as their journey together progresses.
Embarking on the Epic: The Mahabharat Series
Fans have long awaited news about Aamir Khan’s “Mahabharat” project, and he has finally confirmed its commencement. The actor-filmmaker plans to begin work on the monumental film series in August.
Khan clarified that the “Mahabharat” cannot be told in a single film, envisioning it as a series of back-to-back productions. He described the epic as “very dangerous” and a story “in my blood” that he feels compelled to tell.
Intriguingly, Aamir revealed a key casting decision: he will not feature himself or any other established stars in the series. His vision is to cast “entirely new” and “unknown faces,” believing the characters themselves should be the true stars.
“Sitaare Zameen Par” and the Path Less Taken
Aamir Khan’s latest film, “Sitaare Zameen Par,” has garnered significant success. He shared that making the film was an “audacious thing,” especially after his previous venture, “Laal Singh Chaddha,” did not resonate with a wider audience.
Many close to him advised against “Sitaare Zameen Par,” fearing it was too unconventional for current theatregoers who prefer action. However, Khan maintained his creative conviction, explaining that the story had deeply impacted him, much like its Spanish original, “Champions.”
Following His Own Drumbeat: Aamir’s Career Philosophy
Throughout his career, Aamir Khan has been known for making unconventional choices, often against external advice. He highlighted past films like “Lagaan,” “Rang De Basanti,” and “Taare Zameen Par,” all of which he was advised not to do.
Khan asserts that while he listens carefully to all opinions, he ultimately follows his heart when a story “gets into my blood.” This deep personal connection to his projects drives his unique filmography and artistic decisions.
