Movie Review: Thank You For Coming - 3.5/5

# Ira Khan's Raw Confession: "Yes, I'm Fat and Obese" – A Bollywood Star's Daughter Breaks Silence on Body Image Struggles **Imagine confronting the "elephant in the room" about your own body in front of millions – that's exactly what Aamir Khan's daughter, Ira Khan, just did.** In a bold Instagram video and post, Ira openly admitted her ongoing battle with body image since 2020, saying, "Yes, I'm fat, and I'm actually obese for my age and my height."[1][2] Ira's vulnerability shines through as she describes oscillating between feeling fat, unfit, overweight, and obese over the past five years.[1][2] Unlike her previous openness about depression, where she felt articulate and confident, this topic feels "a little scary" to her.[2][3] She explains how these struggles have deeply impacted her life: interfering with friendships, her relationship with partner Popoy (likely referring to Nupur Shikhare), self-worth, work, and daily participation – as intensely as depression once did.[1][2]

What makes Ira's story so relatable? She's not just a celebrity kid – she's using her platform to normalize these conversations, captioning her post with hope: "I feel at least a small shift for the better so I've decided to start talking about it/share... Let's see how this goes. #mentalhealth #fat #bodyimage #fit #bodypositivity."[1][2] By addressing her complicated relationship with food and body image head-on, Ira challenges the toxic beauty standards rampant in Bollywood and beyond, urging followers to stay away from judgmental comments.[3] This isn't about quick fixes or shame; it's a call for understanding mental health's role in how we see ourselves.[4] Ira's courage reminds us that even in the spotlight, real bodies come with real struggles – and speaking out is the first step toward healing. **What's your take?
