Following widespread online debate around Aamir Khan's third marriage to longtime partner Gauri Spratt, the actor has broken his silence, asserting that "love jihad" claims against him are not true and his relationships did not involve any religious conversion. Aamir and Gauri exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at the actor's Mumbai residence on July 5. The marriage was attended by close friends, family, and film industry colleagues. Aamir Khan responds to love jihad claims Reacting to the allegations during an interview with Rediff, he said, "The truth is that ours is a very inclusive family. Both my sisters are married to Hindus; my daughter is also married to a Hindu. My cousin Mansoor is married to a Christian."

This latest hurdle comes a day after California and 11 other states launched separate suits to block the merger.
