Aamir Khan took some time out from the post-release promotions of his new film, RS Prasanna’s coming-of-age sports comedy Sitaare Zameen Par, to visit Hyderabad. The purpose was to meet the newborn girl of Tamil actor Vishnu Vishal and wife, badminton player Jwala Gutta. In fact, Aamir has also named the baby girl Mira.
On Sunday, Vishnu shared a picture with son Aryan, Jwala, Aamir, and Mira, with Aamir gently holding Mira in his arms. “Introducing our MIRA… A big hug to #AamirKhan sir for coming all the way to hyderabad to name our baby. MIRA represents unconditional love and peace. The journey with Aamir sir to this point has been a magical one,” he wrote in the social media caption along with the picture.
Jwala also took to social media and shared a bunch of photos. One of the pictures had her, Vishnu, Aryan, and Aamir look fondly at Mira, who’s resting peacefully in Aamir’s arms. In another still, Aamir is seen adjusting Mira in her pram. There was also a family portrait of Vishnu, Jwala, and her parents, along with Aamir who holds Mira in his arms. “Our ‘Mira’! Couldn’t have asked for more!! This journey would have been impossible without u Aamir!! We love you (red heart emoji) P.S Thank you for the beautiful name,” Jwala wrote in the caption.

Back in September 2020, on the occasion of her 37th birthday, Jwala announced that she’s engaged to Vishnu. “N dis happened last nite n what a beautiful surprise it was! Today when I think of my life what a journey it has been n 2day I realise there is so much more to look forward to! Towards our family, Aryan, friends, and work! its gonna be another great journey am sure (sic),” Jwala had tweeted.
Jwala was previously married to fellow badminton player Chetan Anand, before their divorce in 2011. Vishnu was also married to Rajini Natraj, daughter of actor K Natraj. The two were collegemates and dated for four years before tying the knot in 2010. A year after becoming parents to son Aryan, the couple divorced in 2018. Jwala and Vishnu tied the knot in 2021 and became parents earlier this year.
Aamir became a close family friend of Jwala and Vishnu after he met the badminton player at a function a few years ago. They grew close during the 2023 Chennai floods, when Aamir was in the city for his mother’s treatment. After extending his stay for two more days because of the floods, Aamir spent more time with Vishnu and Jwala and became even closer to the family.

Vishnu told Cinema Express that Aamir wants to make a film with him. “Actually, I’ve been turning it down, as I want to relish our bond and not let business influence it. But sir is keen on making a film with me. So, we might join hands at the right time, for the right script,” he revealed. Meanwhile, Aamir will soon appear in a Tamil film, Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie, followed by another movie with the director in the lead role.
