Aamir Khan’s love for pillows is no secret. The actor is frequently spotted carrying a pillow while traveling, often seen holding it as he poses for the media at airports. His habit has intrigued fans for years, and now his ex-wife, Kiran Rao, has finally revealed the reason behind it.
A Pillow That Travels Everywhere
In a chat with ANI, Kiran addressed his well-known habit of carrying a pillow everywhere he travels. She mentioned that although they have been divorced for a while, his unique travel style remains unchanged. Aamir always boards and exits flights with the same pillow, as he enjoys sleeping during his journeys.
Kiran further compared his habit to other celebrities’ signature styles, noting that such quirks make people stand out. She also appreciated how Aamir remains unaffected by public opinion and stays true to himself. His confidence, she shared, helped her navigate high-profile events despite coming from a middle-class background.
A Supportive Partner
The filmmaker also highlighted that Aamir never imposed expectations on how his partner should look, making life less stressful. She added that his first wife, Reena, was always her own person, and Aamir fully supported her individuality. Kiran believes this quality is one of Aamir’s greatest traits.
Kareena’s Fun Take on Aamir’s Pillow
Aamir Khan’s love for pillows is evident in his airport appearances, where he is often seen carrying his favorite sleep accessory. Even Kareena Kapoor once shared a picture from a flight during Laal Singh Chaddha promotions, showing Aamir resting behind a pillow while she posed beside him. Playfully, she captioned it, calling his pillow her “favorite co-star.” Aamir humorously responded, asking fans not to focus too much on the pillow.
