Just a day before his birthday, Aamir Khan announced that he is in love once again. In an informal meet-and-greet held at a Mumbai hotel on Thursday, the Bollywood megastar sat down with journalists and opened up about his personal life, also revealing that he has been dating non-celebrity girlfriend Gauri Spratt for 18 months.

Hindustan Times reported that the Taare Zameen Par actor requested attendees to not photograph his partner as he revealed more information. The couple met 25 years ago, though they lost touch and reconnected only a few years back. Boasting his skill at keeping the relationship a secret for 18 months, Aamir said, "See? I didn't let you guys find out!"

When asked what made him go public with the news, he said, "We are committed now, and we felt we were secure enough in each other to tell you guys. And this is better, I won't have to hide things now. Tomorrow, if I go for a coffee with her, you guys can join us, too."

Gauri, who used to live in Bengaluru and is a mother to a six-year-old son, has been married before like Aamir. "I was looking for someone who I can be calm with, who gives me peace. And there she was," he added.

Now that the big news is out to the world, the PK actor also shared that he's taking careful measures towards Gauri's safety for his "personal peace of mind" and has done his best to prepare her for what lies ahead. "I have tried to tell her how it will be, the media madness, and somewhat prepare her for it. She isn't used to it. But we are hoping that you guys will be kind."

As for his marriage plans, Aamir is not ready to tie the knot just yet. "See, we are fully committed. And I have been married twice. But marriage at the age of 60 wouldn't suit me. But let's see," he said.

The Ghajini star first tied the knot with film producer Reena Dutta, with whom he has two children - influencer Ira Khan and actor Junaid Khan. He then married filmmaker Kiran Rao, with whom he co-parents son Azad Rao Khan. Aamir and Kiran also share a professional relationship and recently worked on comedy drama Laapataa Ladies, India's official submission for the Oscars.
