The younger actress Suhani Bhatnagar gained immense popularity after her portrayal of the younger Babita Kumari Phogat in Nitesh Tiwari’s Dangal. Despite the massive recognition, the 19-year-old chose to pursue her studies before taking up acting. However, in a recent interview after her unfortunate demise, Suhani’s mother talked about how Aamir Khan continued to share a warm bond with them and even invited them to Ira Khan’s wedding.

In an interview with ANI, Suhani Bhatnagar’s mother Pooja Bhatnagar called Aamir Khan a ‘nice person’ and stated that he always remained in touch with her daughter. She also stated that they didn’t share their daughter’s health condition with anyone.

She said, “Aamir sir has always been in touch. He is a nice person. He always remained in touch with her. We didn’t inform him because we were already very disturbed so we didn’t tell anyone including him (Aamir Khan) but definitely, if we sent him a text message, he would immediately respond and call us personally. He bonded well with Suhani from the beginning.”

She further continues by sharing, “Recently, it was their daughter's marriage. We got the invite properly. He even called us stating that you have to come.” However, Suhani’s mother revealed at that point in time, Suhani was recovering from a fracture, thus they couldn’t travel. Therefore, they couldn’t make it to the wedding.

The late Suhani's mother also shared in the same interview, "Har parent proud feel karta hai ki woh apne bache ke naam se jana jata hai. Hamari kya identity thi? Hume jo recognition mila hai woh to Suhani ki wajah se hi mila hai, ki ye ‘Dangal girl ke parents hain’, jahan bhi jana ho uski recognition hoti thi… har ek ko apna bacha bahut acha lagta hai par hamara bacha hume bahut proud feel kara ke gaya hai (Every parent feels proud of their child. We were recognised everywhere as ‘Dangal girl’ Suhani’s parents. Our daughter made us very proud before she left us).”

Furthermore, the emotional mother also shared that after Dangal, Suhani did some print ad shoots. They wanted her to complete her studies first. She stated that their daughter was also of the opinion that she should finish her graduation and then take up her passion for acting. Suhani’s mother divulged that she was studying Journalism and Mass Communication and had topped the last semester.  

“She was a brilliant girl in every part of her life. She was creative and an intelligent girl,” her mother added.
