MUMBAI – Indian actor Aamir Khan has officially tied the knot with his long-time partner, Bengaluru-based entrepreneur Gauri Spratt. The wedding ceremony took place at his Mumbai residence on July 5.
Heavy rainfall hit Mumbai on the day of the wedding, but that did not stop the celebrations from going ahead as planned.
Who showed up?
Among the guests spotted arriving were former cricketer Irfan Pathan, actor-comedian Vir Das and film-maker Ashutosh Gowariker. Aamir’s children, actor Junaid Khan and entrepreneur Ira Khan, were also seen arriving to be part of the celebration.
Das has a working history with Aamir Khan Productions, having featured in the 2011 film Delhi Belly and the 2026 release Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos, which likely explains his presence at such a personal event.
No grand reception this time
Ahead of the wedding, Aamir had already shared that the couple planned to register their marriage in the presence of family and a handful of close friends. He made it clear there would be no wedding reception following the ceremony.
This marks the 61-year-old’s third marriage. He was previously married to film producer Reena Dutta and later to film-maker Kiran Rao. For Spratt, this is her second marriage.
Aamir’s message to fans
Aamir personally asked fans and the media to send their blessings to the couple as they begin this new chapter together after getting married.
He shared his thoughts in a message, saying they were holding the wedding right at home and that all they wanted was everyone’s blessings for their happiness. He added that he hoped their journey ahead would be a good one, describing the entire affair as small, intimate, and truly homely.
The family coming together
The wedding brought together children from both sides of the couple’s lives. Aamir’s children from his first marriage to Dutta, Junaid Khan and Ira Khan, were present. His son Azad, from his second marriage to Rao, also joined the celebrations.
Spratt’s son from her previous marriage was also part of the occasion.
How Aamir and Gauri met
Aamir and Spratt were first introduced through his cousin Nuzhat Khan in Bengaluru. The two dated for about a year before Aamir publicly introduced her as his partner, doing so just ahead of his 60th birthday in March 2025.
Since going public with their relationship, the couple have been living together at Aamir’s Bandra residence in Mumbai.
Legal formalities before the ceremony
According to reports, the couple’s wedding day began with the official registration of their marriage under the Special Marriage Act. This formal registration took place before the private ceremony itself, making the legal aspect of their union official on the very same day as their intimate celebration.
