Kiran Rao, director of "Laapataa Ladies," has opened up about her divorce from actor Aamir Khan, revealing a unique perspective on their separation. While acknowledging the emotional journey they both undertook to reach this decision, Kiran emphasizes the positivity and support she has found in their "very happy divorce."
"Relationships need to be redefined," says Rao, highlighting the evolving nature of human connection and the need for individual happiness. She credits her decision to divorce Aamir with bringing her personal joy and emphasizes the strong foundation of their co-parenting relationship and familial support that has made the transition smoother.
Rao acknowledges the 15-year marriage was not an easy one to end, with both her and Aamir needing time to navigate the emotional complexities. However, she found strength in their commitment to co-parenting their son Azad and the enduring respect and love they share.
Rao's perspective offers a fresh take on divorce, emphasizing that while the legal bond may be broken, the foundation of love, friendship, and respect can remain. Their "partnership," she says, will withstand the test of time, proving that love can exist in various forms beyond the confines of a marriage certificate.
