The internet is relieved that a name and face have been put to Khan's new girlfriend as rumours have been swirling around the past year.

The 3 Idiots actor also revealed that Spratt has been introduced to his family and they have welcomed her with open arms.
On the work front, Khan's new film, Sitaare Zameer Par is slated to release later this year. The film, which was initially meant for a Christmas 2024 release, is a sequel to his directorial debut Taare Zameer Par.
