During a candid conversation with Faye D’Souza, Kiran Rao shared that her divorce from Aamir Khan has been a positive experience. Rao emphasized that relationships need to be redefined as people grow and change.

Rao reflected on her life before and after her relationship with Aamir. She mentioned that she was single for a long time before they got together and enjoyed her independence. Although she felt lonely at times, having her son Azad now fills that void. She believes that fear of loneliness is a common concern for those going through a divorce or losing a partner, but she hasn’t experienced that fear. “Both our families support me, so it has been all good,” she added, expressing gratitude for the unwavering support system around her.
Ending a 15-year-long marriage was not an easy decision for either Kiran or Aamir. Rao acknowledged that it took time for both of them to emotionally and mentally come to terms with the separation. Despite the challenges, she was confident that she would thrive post-divorce. She sought independence and the opportunity to focus on herself and her life. “There is a lot of love, shared history, and laughter between Aamir and me,” she said, emphasizing that their partnership will endure despite the divorce. “This is a partnership that will stand the test of time,” Rao concluded.
