Aamir Khan Praises Rhea Chakraborty's Courage in Emotional Chat: Talks Grief, Therapy, and Career Changes

Aamir Khan, known for his emotional depth and honesty, recently appeared in a promo for Rhea Chakraborty's chat show, "Chapter 2: Episode 2," where he shared a candid and heartfelt conversation with the actress. The promo, which was shared on Instagram, gave viewers a glimpse into the deep topics discussed by the two, including grief, therapy, and the challenges of life in the spotlight.

In the promo, Aamir and Rhea are seen comfortably seated in what appears to be Rhea’s home, with her beloved husky joining them. Rhea kicks off the conversation by complimenting Aamir on his looks. However, Aamir humbly deflects the praise, stating that while Hrithik Roshan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Salman Khan are often considered handsome, he doesn’t see himself in the same light. Rhea reassures him that not only she but the entire country finds him handsome. Aamir, in his usual candid manner, mentions how he’s often trolled for his fashion choices, to which Rhea cheekily responds that she never complimented his outfits, only his looks.

The conversation takes a more serious turn as Aamir acknowledges Rhea's courage, likely referring to the intense scrutiny and online hate she faced after the tragic death of her boyfriend, Sushant Singh Rajput, in 2020. Rhea, who was blamed and even jailed for abetment to suicide, has shown remarkable resilience in the face of these challenges.

As they discuss grief, Aamir becomes visibly emotional, needing a moment to compose himself. He speaks about the importance of therapy and how it has helped him navigate through the darkest times in his life. Aamir also hints at a significant change in his career, expressing his desire to step back from acting and focus on other aspects of filmmaking.

The episode is set to air on August 23, and fans are eagerly waiting to see this honest and touching conversation unfold. Rhea captioned the promo, expressing her excitement to have Aamir Khan on the show and hinting at the deep and meaningful topics they discussed.
