Days after Aamir Khan’s daughter Ira Khan celebrated her 23rd birthday, she took to Instagram and shared a video talking about her aspirations as a child where she aspired to solve the issue of corruption and end unemployment among other important crises prevalent in the society. She spoke about how she dreamt of traveling villages and checking at the employment rate and then starting her own company to hire people. While she had many dreams of helping the people, she was told to focus on her studies which would further help in accomplishing her goals.
Ira said, “At different ages, I wanted to solve corruption. I was like ‘We will find all the people who are corrupt and we will tell their bosses that they are corrupt and then we will get rid of corruption’. I wanted to end unemployment so I wanted to go to all the villages and find out what villagers were good at doing and get them employment in companies that can actually, or make my own company so that I can actually pay them what they need.”
She added, “I wanted to, lots of people were on a diet and they were eating six egg whites a day, but not eating the egg yolks. I was like, ‘we should collect the egg yolks and feed it to the dogs so that the dogs don’t go hungry’.”
To fulfil her dreams, Ira had a plan. She was told to do her bit at the time by focusing on her studies. She said, “I was like, ‘okay, I’ll study, I’ll grow, earn lots of money and I will donate it to NGOs.”
