Last Updated: Aamir Khan said Reena Dutta loved his recent film, Sitaare Zameen Par. Aamir Khan is currently enjoying the success of Sitaare Zameen Par. The film was released earlier this month and opened to mostly positive reviews. However, for Aamir Khan, his biggest critic is his ex-wife, Reena Dutta. The actor, known for his perfectionist streak and an instinct for emotionally resonant storytelling, recently appeared on On The Right Angle with Sonal Kalra and opened up about Reena's honesty. When asked who his biggest critic is, Aamir offered an unexpected response, 'All of my kids are honest with me and they critique my work." He said, "But I think Reena is one of my biggest critics." Aamir shared how Reena, his ex-wife's feedback has always mattered to him for her unwavering honesty. She said, 'She's always honest with me, and that's something I've always respected" After watching Sitare Zameen Par, Reena texted Aamir Khan. The actor said, 'She said, 'Hey Aamir, you were great. Loved the film.' And that meant a lot to me." He added. 'For her to say that, it told me the film had really landed." Aamir Khan married Reena Dutta in 1986 in a secret ceremony during the early days of his career. However, after 16 years of being together, they got divorced in 2002. In a recent interview, Aamir Khan revealed that it took him three years to get back on his feet. He revealed that he was in deep depression and turned to drinking for a year and a half. He said that he used to be a teetotaler but began to finish a bottle a day after his divorce. Aamir Khan told Instant Bollywood, 'When Reena and I broke, I was in mourning for almost 2-3 years. I wasn't working or listening to scripts. I was alone at home, and for almost 1.5 years, I drank a lot. You will be shocked to know that I was a teetotaler. After the split up, I didn't know what to do." Aamir reflected on what he learnt from his divorce and said, 'You have to face your losses and accept how important it was for you. Accept that what was once yours is not there now. Also accept how good it was for you when it was there, and how much you will miss it when it isn't there anymore." After his divorce from Reena Dutta, Aamir Khan married Kiran Rao in 2005. However, after nearly 16 years, they announced their separation in 2021. Aamir Khan, now 60, has found love for the third time with Gauri Spratt. He recently introduced Gauri to the media and revealed that his family has accepted her with open arms.
