Failure in two successive relationships might make her craved for a true love in life. Her relationship with Mazhar Khan blossomed after the 1979 film Sampark and the couple tied the knot in 1985.

Aman later admitted that her relationship with Mazhar Khan was not perfect.Mazhar Khan did not allow her to act in films. Aman was forced to leave Bollywood to take care of her two children.

The lovely actress once opened up about her private life and talked about how unhappy she was in her marriage.
