Who is Gauri Spratt, Aamir Khan's girlfriend? Mom of 6-year-old, owns a salon in Mumbai
Aamir Khan, one of the biggest stars of Bollywood, recently made headlines by introducing his new girlfriend Gauri Spratt just before his 60th birthday. This surprised fans and media alike and for the first time Aamir is talking about his relationship and future with Gauri.
A New Chapter in Aamir's Life
Aamir and Gauri have a long history; they met 25 years ago. But due to their busy careers and life circumstances they lost touch over the years. It was only two years ago that fate brought them back together and their relationship started to bloom. Aamir calls this reunion as transformative, "I was looking for someone who I can be calm with, who gives me peace. And there she was." This says a lot about how much Gauri means to him especially after his two marriages to Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao with whom he has three children.
Going Public
In a press conference Aamir spoke about why he decided to come out in the open about his relationship. He said, "We are committed now and we felt we were secure enough in each other to tell you guys. And this is better; I won’t have to hide things now. Tomorrow if I go for a coffee with her, you guys can join us too." His takes on media attention is all about transparency and he doesn’t want to hide anything now.
Thoughts on Marriage
Despite being committed he jokingly spoke about marriage saying, "See we are fully committed. And I have been married twice. Par ab 60 saal ki umar mein shaadi shayad mujhe shobha nahi degi" (Marriage at the age of 60 would not suit me). This playful remark shows he is aware of the societal pressure of marriage at an older age and also keeps the door open for future possibilities. Aamir’s take on marriage is very mature, he emphasizes on companionship and emotional connection over the traditional expectations.
Gauri Spratt: A Profile
Gauri is also from Bengaluru and not just Aamir’s partner but a professional in her own right. She has a 6 year old child and has been a partner and director at a well known salon since 2007. Gauri has a degree in fashion, styling and photography from the University of Arts, London. Despite being Aamir Khan’s partner, she is very private about her personal life. So Aamir has asked the photographers to not share her pictures on social media, which shows he is looking out for her privacy and well being.
Family Acceptance
Gauri has mentioned that Aamir’s family had treated her with love. She said, “They met me with open arms” and that she felt very accepted. This has made her feel like a part of the family and has strengthened her bond with Aamir. Aamir’s family has played a big role in helping Gauri settle in her new relationship and feel safe and welcome.
Navigating Media Scrutiny
Since Gauri knows that being a part of a Bollywood star’s life comes with a lot of media attention, Aamir has taken measures to ensure her safety and comfort. He has arranged for private security for her and says it gives him “personal peace of mind”. This shows Aamir’s protective nature and his desire to shield Gauri from all the attention that comes with being in the public eye.
