Later on Saturday, former India cricketer Irfan Pathan shared a glimpse of the celebration on Instagram. Pathan attended the gathering with his wife, former model Safa Baig.

In the video, Aamir is seen cutting his birthday cake as guests around him clap and cheer. The clip offers a glimpse of the relaxed celebration, with a spread of home-cooked dishes placed on the table. Ira, Junaid and Azad appear dressed casually in jeans and T-shirts, while Gauri is seen wearing a green outfit. Aamir also kept it simple in a striped T-shirt paired with black pants.

The video also captured a playful moment when Ira used a lighter in place of a candle before Aamir blew it out. She later smeared a bit of cake cream on his face. Aamir first fed cake to Azad, followed by Ira, Gauri and then Junaid.

Sharing the clip, Irfan wrote: “Wishing a very Happy Birthday to Aamir bhai. Also wonderful to see Ira Khan doing impactful work through Agatsu Foundation, spreading awareness and support for mental health.”

Clips of guests leaving the intimate gathering later surfaced online. One video showed Kiran Rao leaving in a car with Aamir and Gauri. Another clip captured Aamir’s former wife Reena Dutta leaving with their son Junaid.

Several of Aamir’s friends and colleagues also shared birthday wishes on social media. Kiran Rao reposted a birthday video shared by Aamir’s production house and wrote, “HBD to my forever Sikander.”

Actor Kajol, who has worked with Aamir in films such as Fanaa, Ishq and Salaam Venky, also wished him with a throwback photo on her Instagram Stories.
