Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt: A Love Story Reconnected
During the media interaction, Aamir requested photographers not to take pictures, keeping the moment informal and relaxed. He revealed that he first met Gauri 25 years ago but reconnected with her through his cousin, Nuzhat Khan. The two started dating over a year ago, successfully keeping their relationship private until now.
Referring to his iconic film Lagaan, Aamir joked:
“Bhuvan ko uski Gauri mil hi gayi.” (Bhuvan finally met his Gauri.)
Who is Gauri Spratt?
Gauri Spratt is a Bengaluru-based professional who was previously married and has a six-year-old son. She comes from a mixed heritage, being part-Irish and part-Tamil. While she isn’t a big Bollywood fan, she has recently watched some of Aamir’s most iconic films, including Dil Chahta Hai, Lagaan, and Dangal. Aamir also expressed his desire for her to watch Taare Zameen Par, his directorial debut.
Interestingly, Gauri is currently working with Aamir Khan Productions, making their bond even stronger.

Aamir mentioned that his family members are thrilled about his relationship, and his children share a great bond with Gauri. He also revealed that she has met his close friends and Bollywood contemporaries, including Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
“I thought it would be a nice occasion for you all to meet her, besides, we won’t have to keep hiding. She met Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan last night,” Aamir shared with a smile.
Keeping It Private for Over a Year
Aamir humorously acknowledged how he managed to keep their relationship a secret for so long, saying:
“Dekha kuch bhi pata nahi chalne diya maine tum logo ko.” (See, I didn’t let any of you get a hint of this!)
