Aamir Khan on going public with his relationship

Aamir met media at a meet and greet ahead of his 60th birthday at a Mumbai hotel on Thursday. It was here that he introduced Gauri as his partner. When asked what prompted him to go public with the relationship now, the actor 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."

However, the actor admitted that he had tried to prepare Gauri for the spotlight she will be in. "I have tried to tell her how it will be, the media madness, and prepare her somewhat for it. She isn't used to it. But we are hoping that you guys will be kind," Aamir told media personnel at the gathering.
