Ira Khan reveals divorce of parents Aamir Khan-Reena Dutta was one of the triggers for her depression

Ira Khan reveals divorce of parents Aamir Khan-Reena Dutta was one of the triggers for her depression

Ira Khan, daughter of Aamir Khan and his first wife Reena Dutta, has often talked about her mental health. Recently, she said that she blames herself for her depression, and added that her depression is also 'partly genetic'.

In an interview with ETimes, Ira mentioned the divorce of her parents is one of the triggers of her depression. She said that though the divorce was ‘amicable’, it did leave an impact on her mental health.

Ira said because her parents made her believe that getting divorced ‘was not a big deal’, she formed some perceptions in her head but never discussed them with anyone.

She believed that one has to be sad to receive love from others. But now, Ira aims to be happy in life and for that, she has to ‘systematically undo’ everything she has done until now.

Ira also shared that her fiance, Nupur Shikhare is one of her strongest support systems and she thinks she is ‘lucky’ to have him in her life. Ira and Nupur got engaged in 2022.

Ira Khan recently launched the Agastu Foundation in an attempt to provide mental health support.
