In February, Ira Khan had opened up on her tryst with clinical depression. She even shared a video on Instagram where she talked about how she has been suffering from depression for the last four years, visiting a doctor, and doing much better now.

Ira revealed that although she was happy for her cousin, she had to put in a lot of effort to smile for pictures. "Hello again FT. Wiza TRIGGER WARNING: It's not a happy, positive video. It's not an unhappy, negative video either. But I'm.. blah and if you're low, it may or may not be the best thing to watch. You be the judge. And clearly I mumble. A lot. Will be more conscious next time (sic)", she wrote.
