In the promotion of the movie, I told everyone that this movie was made by Aamir Khan. If anyone goes to see this movie even thinking about Aamir, then I will benefit too. I can use him shamelessly.’

I spend time with Reena (Reena Dutt, Aamir’s first wife) and Nujhat (Aamir’s sister), and I also spend time separately with Aamir. These relationships should not be lost, even after divorce. Even though our paths as partners are different, we are still the same family.’
