#"Am very ambitious, I'd like to do work of the level people havn't seen before. I want to raise the bar as an actor, producer and director. I'd like to do films that would live on much after I'm no longer there. Even if someone sees Lagaan 200 years later, he should say, "Who is that guy, yaar?!".

Kiran Rao's words about her husband;
We're great friends and we respect each other. He makes me laugh a lot!. Ideologically, we have from the same space. we have our individual spaces too, but we are best when we are together, as we enjoy each other's company a lot.
I'm proud to be his wife, he is more than supportive and always told me "you don't have to succumb to any pressure. It doesn't matter what people expects of you, be exactly who you are and be proud of that". and I am. If I didn't have a partner who didn't understand this, it would have been difficult. But Aamir loves me for who I am. He has given me a sense of maturity.
I always tell people that he is not really a perfectionist, he is just really passionate and does things to the best of his ability. At home he is completely undemanding.
