Aamir Khan-Kiran Rao celebrate their 15th wedding anniversary in Gir Forest

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao rang in their 15th wedding anniversary in the Gir Forest. On Sunday morning (December 27), Aamir and Kiran visited the Gir forest and were one of the lucky people who got a rare sighting of the Asiatic Gir Lion.

After visiting the forest, Aamir penned a note to the Forest Minister to thank him for the experience.

"What a wonderful and unique experience this morning! In gratitude to the forest department for my important work of conservation being done here. It was our good fortune to spot the king of the jungle, with its native family. Best wishes and Thank You," wrote Aamir in the letter.

Additional Chief Secretary (Forest Department) Dr. Rajiv Kumar Gupta took to Twitter and wrote, "Amir Khan expresses his feelings after visiting Gir Forest. Come & see the only habitat of Asiatic Lions as their numbers have grown exponentially from 327 in 2001 to 674 in 2020 due to massive & sustained conservation efforts under overarching leadership of Hon @PMOIndia.@CMOGuj."
