While Aamir was busy building his career, his personal life went for a complete toss. In an interview with News 18, Aamir had revealed the biggest regret in his life was when he was not available for his daughter, Ira. Talking about the same, he had stated:
"It’s my biggest mistake (not being able to spend enough time with kids). But I won’t blame my profession for it. Today, Ira is 23 but when she was 4-5, I wasn’t there for her. I was busy with films. Every kid needs their parents because when you are a child you have your own fears and hopes. But when she needed me the most, I wasn’t by her side to hold her hand when she would get scared. And, I know that moment will never come back."
For the unversed, Ira is currently dating her father's fitness trainer, Nupur Shikhare!
