It's family time for Aamir

Aamir Khan and his wife Kiran Rao left last night for their European holiday. The couple will join Aamir's son Junaid and daughter Ira, who are currently in France. The kids left for France with Aamir's mother and two sisters three days ago.

A source close to Aamir said, "Junaid and Ira were keen to go for a ski holiday to Europe. When they expressed their wish to Aamir, the doting father could not turn down their request. The kids left for France three days ago."

Last year too, Aamir had gone for a ski holiday. After his return, he had said, "Thanks to my persistent kids I ended up committing to a week of skiing, and I am glad I did. Those of you who have the resources and ability to try out skiing please do so, it is absolutely one of the best things I have done in a long time."

Last year, Aamir had chosen Banff, a famous ski resort in Canada. This time, the family will holiday in Chamonix Valley, France. "They will also visit a few other places in Europe. It's basically a fun filled trip for the kids," added the source.

Wasn't this holiday initially just about Aamir spending time with Junaid and Ira? "That's not true. Kiran, Aamir's mother and his sisters were always supposed to be part of this holiday," said the source.

Aamir's official spokesperson confirmed the actor's plans. The family will return to Mumbai after twelve days.
