Aamir Khan on dating, marrying again
Aamir drew a comparison between his understanding of marriage before his wedding with ex-wife Reena Dutta and how things have changed now. He said, “Aaj jab main dekhta hoon mujhe lagta hai yaar, ‘Aaj ki date mein main agar kisiso milun, 4 mahine mein shaadi ka decision le sakta hoon’? Nahi. Zindagi bhar iske saath guzaarna hai (Today, when I think, ‘If I meet somebody, could I decide to marry after four months’? No. I have to spend my entire life with her).”
Aamir on the benefits of taking mental health therapy
The actor spoke about how he wasn’t going through therapy before his marriage to Reena. “Us waqt main therapy bhi nahi karta tha. Aaj kal kyuki main therapy leta hoon toh self reflection ka mujhe mauka mila hai, samajh mein aaya hai, apne aap ko main samajh paya hoon. Red flags mujhe bohut jaldi dikhte hai abhi (I wasn’t taking therapy then. Now, since I’m doing therapy, I got a chance of self-reflection, I’ve understood things, I’ve understood myself. I see red flags very quickly now),” he added.
