This superstar got secretly married for just Rs 50, did not even inform his family, got married at…, wife was…, his name is…
Aamir Khan is in the news these days for his interview, where he talked about all the ups and downs of his life. Recently, the actor also told that he had spent only 50 rupees on his first marriage.
The actor revealed that he and Reena Dutta secretly married each other in 1986, about two years before the actor made his debut in a lead role in Bollywood. The two were neighbors when they used to spend a lot of time complimenting each other from their windows. Then one day, Aamir Khan finally gathered the courage to express his feelings. However, impressing Reena was not easy as she rejected him many times. But Aamir kept pursuing him and then he had to confess. Eventually, the two got married in secret, not even telling their families.
In 1988, the actor made his debut with the film Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. Directed by Mansoor Khan, the film also featured Juhi Chawla, Dalip Tahil, and Shehzad Khan. But no one on the sets knew about the actor’s marriage. In a recent interview, actor Shehzad Khan recalled how the couple got married for just Rs 50. Speaking to Bollywood Thikana, Shehzad Khan said, “We heard about their secret wedding from sources. They had a court marriage for just Rs 50. I was supposed to be one of the witnesses, but as usual, I reached late and they had gone to their respective homes after their wedding.”
The couple kept their marriage a secret for the longest time, with people only knowing that they were probably dating each other. Reena, who years later, helped Aamir produce his dream film Lagaan, shared the screen with him briefly during the song ‘Papa Kehte Hain Bada Naam Karega’ in his debut film. Sharing the details, Shehzad Khan said, ‘Reena came on the set only for the song Papa Kehte Hain Bada Naam Karega from Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. No one on the set knew that they were already married. All they knew was that they liked each other.’
In the song, Aamir can be seen sharing a cute moment with his wife while singing the song. Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta ended their marriage in 2002, a year after the release of Lagaan. They remained married for 16 years and were parents to a son Junaid Khan and a daughter Ira Khan. Aamir Khan then married Kiran Rao in 2005, whom he met on the sets of Lagaan. Their marriage too ended in divorce in 2021 after 15 years. Aamir has a son Azad Rao Khan with Kiran.
