MUMBAI: However busy “thinking superstar” Aamir Khan is, he still manages to make time for his family. Juggling work commitments, ad-film shoots, film schedules and family days out seems like child’s play for Bollywood’s most intellectual actor…

Spotted enjoying a game of football with his family at a ground in Bandra, Aamir looked the part of the perfect “family man”.

In a light grey tee and checked shorts, our hero showed off his prowess on field, while playing soccer with his teenaged daughter Ira. His wife Kiran Rao, dressed casually in a yellow tee and tie-and-dye capris let her curly locks fly, as she tackled hubby dearest and wrestled for possession of the ball. All the while, his toddler Azad Khan looked on from the sidelines, as his parents and step-sibling enjoyed a day in the sun.

Aamir’s nephew Imran Khan and his wife, both dressed in white, showed up towards the late afternoon, to watch Aamir and Ira and her friends enjoy the game of football.

Recently, Aamir has strengthened his belief and faith in his family, when he said that he was grateful for their support. “I want to thank my family. Our field is tough and the family has to go through a lot,” said Aamir, on completion of 25 years in the film industry recently.

Always one to learn from his mistakes, Aamir also said that he feels failure is as important as success.

“I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success,” smiled the impish superstar.
