Kiran Rao and Aamir Khan have recently collaborated on the project ‘Laapataa Ladies’ which turned to be a successful film and received much praise from the audience.

Whereas Kiran made her directorial comeback with it, Aamir turned to be the producer and produced it under his banner Aamir Khan Productions.

Recently, Kiran spoke about her divorce with the actor emphasising that it was a mutual and well thought decision.

She said, "Aamir
and I lived together for about a year before we got
married, and honestly, we did it more because of
parents. At that time too, we knew that it's a great
institution if you can function as an individual as well
as a couple within that institution."

She continued, "I think the thing that we don't talk about enough is how marriage tends to stifle
especially women. So, how you know you could perhaps find a way to be more yourself within it, is I think something that is up for debate and discussion. “

Kiran concluded, "I took my sweet time so I didn't have any
worry about it. The thing is, Aamir and I were very
strong and continue to have a very strong relationship as two humans. We are very connected
to each other; we deeply respect and love each other,
so that hasn't changed, and so, therefore, I was not
worried. I knew that I needed my space. I wanted to
live independently, and I needed that to grow myself.
I felt that it was for my own growth and Aamir
acknowledged that as well and supported that. So
that actually really helped. It wasn't because we don't
care for each other or have any problems or deep
disagreements, so I didn't fear divorce."

Her latest project Laapataa Ladies released on March 1.
