(Web Desk) - Ever since Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan confirmed that he will marry his longtime partner Gauri Spratt on July 5, the news has dominated headlines and social media discussions.
While many fans are delighted that the actor is taking the next step in his relationship, others have questioned his decision to marry for the third time at the age of 60.
Amid the mixed reactions online, veteran actress Rakhee Gulzar has come out in support of Aamir, dismissing the criticism surrounding his age and personal choices.
In a latest interview with Variety India, Rakhee praised Aamir for the way he has maintained healthy and respectful relationships with his former wives, Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao, even after their marriages ended.
Reacting to the wedding news, Rakhee said, “I am not in touch with the goings-on in the film industry, nor have I worked with Aamir Khan. But I do know he is a very sincere person. And I love the way he has maintained his friendship with his two wives (Reena Dutta and Kiran Rao) even after the marriage. It says a lot about him.”
The veteran actress also strongly rejected the notion that there is an age limit for finding companionship or getting married.
“What is wrong with marrying at 60?” she asked, adding that she herself married legendary filmmaker Gulzar when she was 40.
According to reports, Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt’s wedding will be an intimate ceremony held at the actor’s residence, with close friends and family members in attendance. Bollywood superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are also expected to be part of the celebrations.
