Two morphed images of actors Aamir Khan and Fatima Sana Shaikh are circulating on social media to misleadingly claim that the actor has married his Dangal co-star after separating from his former wife Kiran Rao.
One of the same morphed images, showing Khan and Shaikh in traditional attire, were used by Zee News' digital wing on December 24 to falsely claim that the former's daughter Ira Khan has spoken about the actor's third marriage and how it led her to depression.
Apart from the edited image, the article used a screengrab of an unrelated video of Ira Khan from her Instagram profile which was uploaded on May 8, 2021 where she speaks about her workout regime and hurdles in achieving the same and not of her father's relationship status, as claimed by the article.
Aamir Khan and his ex-wife Kiran Rao announced their separation earlier in 2021.
The article has been headlined in Hindi as, "Daughter Ira Khan, fed up with Aamir's third wife, said- it is difficult to bear all this!"
(Original Text in Hindi: आमिर की तीसरी पतनी से तंग आई बेटी इरा खान, कहा- ये सब सहन करना मुशकिल!)
The article falsely claims that Ira Khan has spoken about Aamir Khan's third marriage and how she could not bear her father's third marriage. An excerpt of the article reads in Hindi, "Ira Khan recently said when I came to know that my father was going to marry for the third time, I went into a lot of depression. When my father got married for the third time, I could not bear this." Click here to read...
