In an Instagram story, Ira posted a screenshot of the comments wherein a netizen had questioned, “Why is he so close to you? Is he your relative?” Other users hilariously tried to convince the internet user that Ira is indeed Aamir’s daughter. The netizen refused to believe it and further commented, “Lol. Good joke sir. Shah Rukh is my biological father then.” Reacting to the entertaining conversation on Instagram, Ira Khan commented, “This is new. But yes, don’t believe everything you read on Google.” Ira’s beau Nupur Shikhare was also a part of the Christmas celebrations. The couple had made their relationship official this year with mushy posts on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Aamir and Kiran Rao had announced their divorce this year, ending their 15 years of marriage. The couple shared in a statement, “In these 15 beautiful years together we have shared a lifetime of experiences, joy and laughter, and our relationship has only grown in trust, respect and love. Now we would like to begin a new chapter in our lives – no longer as husband and wife, but as co-parents and family for each other. We began a planned separation some time ago, and now feel comfortable to formalise this arrangement, of living separately yet sharing our lives the way an extended family does. We remain devoted parents to our son Azad, who we will nurture and raise together. We will also continue to work as collaborators on films, Paani Foundation, and other projects that we feel passionate about. We request our well wishers for good wishes and blessings, and hope that – like us – you will see this divorce not as an end, but as the start of a new journey.”
