Aamir Khan, known for his dedication and perfectionism, recently opened up about the financial sacrifices he made for his television show, Satyamev Jayate, and reflected on the reasons behind his first marriage's failure with Reena Dutta.

Khan revealed that he suffered significant financial losses due to Satyamev Jayate. In a podcast interview, he explained that he terminated five advertisement contracts to maintain the show's integrity. He felt it would be inappropriate for him to appear in commercials while simultaneously addressing sensitive social issues on the program. Despite reports suggesting he earned a substantial amount from the show, Khan clarified that he actually incurred considerable losses. He emphasized that the experience and the connections he made with people across India were invaluable, outweighing the financial setback. Satyamev Jayate, which premiered in 2012, marked Aamir Khan's television debut. The show tackled various social issues prevalent in India and ran for three seasons.

Regarding his personal life, Aamir Khan has been married twice. His first marriage was to Reena Dutta in 1986. They have two children, Junaid and Ira Khan. The couple divorced in 2002. While the exact reasons for their separation were never publicly disclosed, it's believed that differences in temperament and Aamir's heavy focus on his career contributed to the split. Some reports also suggest that rumors of Aamir's involvement with other actresses may have played a role. In an interview, Aamir mentioned that he was initially against marriage counseling when facing separation from Reena. He confessed to being uncomfortable with the idea of sharing personal feelings with a stranger. However, he eventually agreed to it, acknowledging later that the experience was different from his initial fears. Despite the divorce, Aamir and Reena have maintained a cordial relationship.

Aamir Khan's second marriage was to Kiran Rao in 2005. They have a son, Azad, through surrogacy. Aamir and Kiran announced their divorce in 2021, but they continue to maintain a friendly relationship and co-parent their son.

Aamir's willingness to openly discuss his personal struggles and professional choices provides a glimpse into the complexities of his life, both on and off the screen.
