There had been reports in the press that he was planning to get married privately, and he confirmed the plans publicly by saying that both he and Gauri were ready to take their relationship to the next level.
A Relationship That Grew Stronger Over Time
Their relationship started out as friends over 25 years ago, but once they became romantically involved they began to develop a more serious connection. Aamir Khan had previously suggested that marriage wasn’t something that was important to either one of them, since they were both happy being together without making their relationship official, but he did comment that the strength of their bond ultimately will lead them to become husband and wife.
