Aamir Khan’s daughter Ira Khan said- I was sexually abused at the age of 14

Mumbai: Ira Khan, daughter of Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, has revealed that she was sexually exploited by a man when she was a teenager. The revelation comes a month after Ira Khan revealed that he has been undergoing treatment for depression for more than 4 years.

“I was sexually assaulted when I was 14,” Ira said in a 10-minute video posted from her Instagram account. She was a bit weird in the sense that I didn’t know the person knew what she was doing, I knew her in a way. It wasn’t happening every day. ‘

“It took me almost a year to understand all this, then I immediately wrote an email to my parents and got myself out of that situation,” Ira Khan said in a video clip on Sunday. When she got out of that situation, they no longer felt bad about her. He said, however, that he was angry at how he let it happen.

HINDI VERSION – LINK IN BIO. I never spoke to anyone about anything because I assumed that my privilege meant I should handle my stuff on my own, or if there was something bigger, it would make people need a better answer than “I don’t know.” It made me feel like I needed a better answer and until I had that answer, my feelings weren’t something I should bother anyone else with. No problem was big enough to ponder too long about. What would anyone do? I had everything. What would anyone say? I had said it all. I still think there’s a small part of me that thinks I’m making all this up, that I have nothing to feel bad about, that I’m not trying hard enough, that maybe I’m over reacting. Old habits die hard. It takes me feeling my worst to make myself believe that it’s bad enough to take seriously. And no matter how many things I have, how nice to me people are because of my dad, how nice to me people are because they love and care about me… if I feel a certain way, a certain not nice way, then how much can rationally trying to explain these things to myself do? Shouldn’t I instead get up and try and fix things? And if I can’t do that for myself? Shouldn’t I ask for help? . . . #mentalhealth #privilege #depression #repression #divorce #sexualabuse #letstalk #betterlatethannever #letitout #depressionhelp #askforhelp

Ira said, ‘I’m not scared, I felt like he wasn’t with me anymore and he’s over. I moved on but it wasn’t something that scared me all my life and nothing that made me feel the way I did at the age of 18-20. ‘

Ira Khan said that even the divorce between his parents did not ‘shock’ him as it was amicable. Aamir Khan and Reena Dutt separated in 2002, 16 years after their marriage. They also have a son named Junaid Khan.
