In a heartwarming display of enduring friendship, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan recently made an unexpected appearance at his former wife Reena Dutta's art exhibition in Mumbai. The surprise visit highlights the remarkably cordial relationship the ex-couple has maintained since their divorce over two decades ago.
A Supportive Surprise
Reena Dutta took to her official Instagram account to share the special moment, posting several photographs from the exhibition where Aamir Khan could be seen engaging with other visitors and deeply immersed in artistic discussions. The actor opted for a simple yet elegant outfit for the occasion, wearing a traditional kurta complemented by a stylish black jacket.
In her heartfelt Instagram caption, Reena expressed her gratitude toward the acclaimed actor, writing: "When your ex surprises you and appears for your exhibition. Thank you Aamir for your continuous support in my art journey." This public acknowledgment underscores the mutual respect and encouragement that defines their post-marriage relationship.
Sixteen Years of Marriage and Beyond
Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta were married for 16 years before finalizing their divorce in 2002. Throughout their marriage and beyond, they have consistently prioritized their roles as parents to their children, Junaid Khan and Ira Khan. Their cooperative co-parenting approach has served as an example of mature relationship management in the public eye.
Following his separation from Reena, Aamir Khan married filmmaker Kiran Rao in 2005, with whom he shares a son named Azad Rao Khan. The actor and Kiran Rao announced their divorce in 2021 but continue to maintain a professional and personal relationship, including collaborative work on creative projects.
Maintaining Family Bonds
The Khan-Dutta family has consistently demonstrated their commitment to family unity despite relationship changes. In June 2024, the entire family came together to celebrate the 90th birthday of Aamir's mother, Zeenat Hussain, at an elaborate gathering hosted at the actor's Mumbai residence. According to sources, the lavish celebration saw over 200 family members and friends flown in from various cities specifically for this milestone event.
Earlier in October, Aamir Khan was photographed paying his final respects to Reena Dutta's father, with Kiran Rao also in attendance at the funeral rites. These instances collectively illustrate the strong familial bonds that transcend conventional relationship boundaries within their circle.
On the professional front, Aamir Khan was most recently seen in the sports drama film 'Sitaare Zameen Par,' which received a theatrical release before becoming available on YouTube, notably bypassing OTT streaming platforms. The actor also made a special cameo appearance in 'The Ba***ds of Bollywood,' directed by Aryan Khan.
