Aamir Khan’s Daughter Ira Khan Opens Up About Depression: “Parents Made Me Believe Divorce Is…”
A couple’s divorce affects their children as much as it affects them. The separation leaves the kid traumatised and often the child ends up blaming itself for being the reason why its parents are no longer together. This blame and guilt leads to severe mental health problems which can only be solved with therapy. Recently, Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta’s daughter, Ira Khan, opened up about how her parents’ divorce affected her mental health. She has been vocal about suffering from depression as well. But in a recent interview, Ira talked about how Aamir and Reena treated their divorce casually, and that led her to blame herself.

She also said that both Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta made it look like their divorce was not a big deal. And with the way both Ira and Reena ‘amicably’ parted ways, led her to form certain notions in her head which she did not share with anyone.
