Through Instagram and other social media platforms, Aamir keeps giving us sneak peek into his personal life. Azad was born through surrogacy on 5 December 2011. He is the son of Aamir's second wife, Kiran Rao.

Meanwhile, Aamir wasn't the only one who celebrated the festival with great fanfare. Shah Rukh Khan also celebrated the birthday of Lord Krishna at his residence, Mannat with family and fans in Bandra, Mumbai. The superstar also indulged in breaking the Dahi Handi. In the video that has gone viral on the Internet, we can see Shah Rukh with a coconut in his hand completing the Janmashtami rituals by breaking the pot.

On the professional front, Aamir Khan's last film, Thugs Of Hindostan, tanked at the box office. He will next be seen in Laal Singh Chaddha, which is an official adaptation of the Hollywood film, Forrest Gump. The film is written by Atul Kulkarni, helmed by Secret Superstar fame, Advait Chandan and co-produced in association with Viacom 18 Motion Pictures.

The Hindi remake will see Kareena Kapoor Khan play his love interest. Forrest Gump marks Aamir and Kareena's third collaboration after 3 Idiots and Talaash. A source spoke to Pinvilla and said, "Kareena is the perfect choice for the film. They have locked both the actors' dates from October this year. They plan to shoot three schedules, back to back and Aamir will have different looks for each era. The film begins in the 70s and ends in present time. From the Emergency and Kargil War to Pulwama and Uri and the changing government, the film will showcase some of the biggest highlights in the last five decades of the nation's socio-political history."
