Gauri Spratt hasn't seen many Aamir Khan films but thinks there's ‘room for improvement' in his acting
Aamir had a long chat about his recent film Sitaare Zameen Par, his personal life and more in the interview. At the end, he took questions from the audience who asked him any questions the host might have missed. Gauri was also encouraged to ask Aamir anything she wanted, and she admitted to feeling put on the spot.
Aamir revealed that she hasn't seen too many of his films, saying, 'Meri filmein bohot kam dekhi hai inhone (She has seen very few of my films).' When asked about his acting skills and if he can act well, she playfully replied, 'There's always room for improvement', leaving everyone in splits. Aamir also took it sportingly and said, 'I agree with her.'
Gauri was also asked which films of Aamir she had watched, and she replied, 'Before we became friends, I watched a few films. Lagaan, Dil Chahhta Hai, 3 Idiots. But after that, I made an effort to see a few more. I have seen Ghajini, Dangal…I have seen Laal Singh Chadha. I haven't seen all his films yet. In some of his older films, I really like how he has acted. Akele Hum Akele Tum, I watched that, and I really enjoyed his performance.' Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt's relationship
Aamir introduced Gauri as his girlfriend to the press on his 60th birthday. He revealed that they crossed paths 25 years ago and lost touch, reconnecting recently. He stated that he was looking for someone to give him 'peace' when they got into a relationship.
Aamir was married to Reena Dutta from 1986 to 2002. They had two children together – Ira Khan and Junaid Khan. He married filmmaker Kiran Rao in 2005, and they divorced in 2021. They have a son, Azad, born through surrogacy. He remains cordial with both of them.

'Naa main uska baap hoon...', Aamir Khan breaks silence on his rumoured relationship with co-actress, she is...
Bollywood industry's Mr Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, worked in the 2018 film 'Thugs of Hindostan.' In this film, he played the role of Firangi Mallah and the movie flopped badly. Now, in an interview, the actor has opened up on the difficulties he faced during the shooting of this film and also talked about his co-star's casting and challenges. How Was Lead Actress Finalized In Thugs Of Hindostan? Recently, during an interview session with Lallantop, the actor had revealed that many A-list actresses, including Deepika Padukone and Alia Bhatt, had refused this project of Yash Raj Films. Later, producer Aditya Chopra and director Vijay Krishna Acharya decided to cast Fatima Sana Shaikh in the film. For the unversed, Fatima Sana Shaikh, who played the role of Aamir Khan's daughter in Nitesh Tiwari's blockbuster 'Dangal', was seen in the role of Aamir Khan's lover in the film Thugs of Hindostan. The Director Refused To Film Love Angle Aamir Khan further told that the director said, 'We will not make any romantic track between you and her because she was your daughter in 'Dangal'. How can she play the role of your girlfriend here? The audience will reject it.' To which Aamir replied, 'main in sab baaton par vishvaas nahin karta. main vaastav men uska pitaa nahin hoon, na hi main vaastav men uska premi hoon. hum ek film banaa rahe hain bhai.' Aamir further cited the example of veteran actors Amitabh Bachchan and Waheeda Rehman, who have played mother-son and lover in films. He also said, 'The audience is not so stupid that they will mistake him for a real father. If we say so, then we are underestimating our audience.' More About Thugs Of Hindostan Thugs of Hindostan was released on November 8, 2018, coinciding with the Diwali festival, and it faced negative reviews from critics. The film earned Rs 335 crore ($45 million) globally at the box office. It premiered in China on December 28, 2018, featuring a special edition edited by Aamir Khan, which had a shorter runtime than the original. Globally, the film made between Rs 202.38 crore ($27.31 million) and Rs 211.98 crore ($29 million) during its opening weekend, and it earned Rs 238.4 crore ($32 million) in its first week. By November 26, 2018, the film had grossed Rs262.8 crore ($35.47 million) worldwide. As of December 31, 2018, Thugs of Hindostan had grossed Rs 320 crore ($43 million) at the global box office. However, the box office revenue fell sharply after the poor reviews, and the film only made Rs 145 crore in India after 11 days. This led to significant losses for theater owners, who requested refunds from the sub-distributor of Yash Raj Films.
