Tamil actor Vishnu Vishal and his wife, Arjuna awardee Jwala Gutta, welcomed their baby girl on April 22, four years after their marriage.
The couple held a naming ceremony in Hyderabad, attended by Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan. Not only did Aamir fly down for the occasion, but he also bestowed the baby with her name, Mira. Now, Vishnu Vishal shared how Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan played a pivotal role in his and wife Jwala Gutta’s journey to parenthood.
Vishnu Vishal talks about Aamir Khan’s support
Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, Vishnu disclosed that Aamir not only guided them through their IVF struggles but also extended his family’s support during a challenging phase. Vishnu and Jwala, who recently welcomed their daughter Mira, went through multiple failed IVF attempts before finally conceiving. Recalling how Aamir stepped in, Vishnu said, “Jwala and I went through a long process of IVF and some efforts were futile, and we had almost given up hope. I happened to meet Aamir sir during the floods in Chennai (2023) and he reached out to help immediately. His was a nurturing and affectionate bond. He asked us to come to Mumbai and pointed us in the right direction for medical help.”
For Jwala’s treatment, she had to stay in Mumbai, and Aamir offered his own home as a refuge. “He hosted us at his house in Mumbai and Jwala stayed there for almost 10 months, and he took care of us. Aamir sir’s mom and sisters took such good care of Jwala,” Vishnu revealed.

The couple’s bond with Aamir deepened further when Vishnu requested the actor to name their baby. “When we were finally having our baby, I had a heart to heart gratitude call with Aamir sir during which I requested him to name our baby. And he was gracious enough to fly down to Hyderabad and name our girl Mira. No words can suffice in thanking Aamir sir. Jwala, Mira and I will always remain forever grateful,” he added.
