Ira Khan posted a 10-minute long video on Instagram and made several revelations about her life. Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan’s daughter addressed how she slipped into depression and also spoke about her parent’s divorce. She also revealed that when she was a teenager she was sexually abused by a person she knew. The theatre director said that it took her about a year to understand and make sense of it, after which she told her father and her mother, Reena Dutta, about it.
She said, “When I was 14, I was sexually abused. That was a slightly odd situation in the sense that I didn’t know whether the person knew what they were doing, I sort of knew them. It wasn’t happening every day.” She added that it took her about a year to be sure that they knew what they were doing and that’s what they were doing. She got out of the situation by writing an email to her parents. Ira said once she was out of that situation, she didn’t feel bad anymore, but she would often beat herself up and feel “silly” that she let the abuse happen.

“I wasn’t scared. I felt like this wasn’t happening to me anymore and it is over. I moved on and let go. But it was again not something that has scarred me for life and something that could be making me feel as bad as I was feeling when I was 18-20 years old,” she added. Speaking about her parents’ divorce, Ira Khan said that it did not traumatise her as it was amicable. Aamir Khan separated from Ira Khan’s mother Reena Dutta in 2002, after being together for 16 years.

It’s not a bad thing.”She added that parents’ divorce can be damaging but it did not bother her that much. “I remember most of it, but it felt like my parents’ divorce didn’t bother me. So, that can’t be a reason why I was feeling so sad.”
