Wedding festivities begin at Aamir Khan's residence; Ambani family among early guests
Mumbai, July 5
Wedding celebrations are underway at Aamir Khan's Mumbai residence, with guests beginning to arrive ahead of the Bollywood superstar's intimate wedding ceremony with longtime partner Gauri Spratt on Sunday.
Among the first high-profile guests to reach the actor's Pali Hill home were Reliance Industries Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani and his family. In videos shared by paparazzi, the Ambani family was seen arriving at the venue in a convoy of cars.
Filmmaker and actor Ashutosh Gowariker was also spotted making his way to Aamir's residence ahead of the ceremony.
The actor's bungalow has been decorated for the occasion with lights and festive arrangements, as preparations continued through the weekend.
Paparazzi videos from outside Aamir Khan's Pali Hill residence showed the bungalow being adorned with decorative lights and festive decor ahead of the ceremony. On Saturday, several workers were also seen bringing in chairs and other furniture, believed to be part of the seating arrangements for wedding guests.
Heavy rain in Mumbai, however, did little to slow the preparations. Workers wearing raincoats continued with the decorations and logistical arrangements even as showers lashed the city. Aamir's sister was also spotted arriving at the residence ahead of the celebrations.
The wedding marks a new chapter in Aamir's personal life. The actor was first married to Reena Dutta in 1986, with whom he has two children, Junaid Khan and Ira Khan. The couple parted ways in 2002.
He later married filmmaker Kiran Rao in 2005. After 16 years of marriage, the two announced their separation in 2021. They continue to co-parent their son, Azad Rao Khan.
Aamir made his relationship with Gauri Spratt public during his 60th birthday celebrations in March last year, introducing her to the media.

Sending best wishes to Aamir and Gauri. That said, I hope this wedding is more low-key than some of the others we've seen recently. These celebrity weddings have become a bit too much of a circus with the paparazzi and all. Let them have their private moment.
Third time's the charm! 🤞 Seriously though, Aamir has always been a private person about his relationships. Happy that he found love again. And kudos to the workers who were setting up in the Mumbai rain - that's real dedication!
Just hope this wedding doesn't become another "Ambani wedding" - these events are getting ridiculous with the guest lists and spending. Aamir has always been classy, so I'm sure it'll be tasteful. Best wishes to the couple! 🎉
As someone from the West who has followed Aamir's work for years, I'm really happy for him. It's nice to see a Bollywood wedding with some genuine warmth rather than just spectacle. Wishing them both a lifetime of happiness! 🇮🇳❤️
Love is love. After two marriages, it takes courage to try again. Aamir has always done things his own way - from his films to his personal life. Wishing the couple all the best. And yes, the Mumbai rain makes for a beautiful backdrop! 🌧️💒
