New Delhi: Aamir Khan, the perfectionist of Bollywood, celebrated his 61st birthday on March 14 in a heartwarming way. Forget grand parties or red carpets – it was all about family love at his home. His girlfriend, Gauri Spratt, mingled happily with his kids, Junaid, Ira, and Azad, and his ex-wife, Kiran Rao.
A special guest video from Irfan Pathan gave fans a peek into the cosy bash, full of cake, laughs, and simple joys. What made this family reunion so special?
Intimate family gathering
Aamir Khan turned 61 on March 14 and kept celebrations low-key at home, surrounded by his nearest and dearest. The event brought together his girlfriend, Gauri Spratt; his children, Junaid Khan, Ira Khan, and Azad Rao Khan; and his former wife, Kiran Rao, creating a true family vibe. Everyone dressed casually – Ira, Junaid, and Azad in jeans and T-shirts, Gauri in a green outfit, and Aamir in a striped T-shirt with black pants.
A table overflowed with home-cooked dishes, adding to the warm, homely feel. Late on Saturday, former cricketer Irfan Pathan shared a video clip on Instagram from the bash, which he attended with his wife, Safa Baig. In the footage, guests clapped and cheered as Aamir cut his birthday cake, highlighting the night’s intimate joy.

Playful cake moments
The video captured fun family antics that stole the show. Ira Khan lit a lighter instead of a candle, and Aamir blew it out with a smile. She then smeared cake cream on his face in a playful smear, drawing laughs from all. Aamir fed cake first to young Azad, then Ira, Gauri, and finally Junaid, showing his caring side.
