As Ira participated in the marathon, she was bodyshamed on the internet with many users even criticising what she wore. The marathon took place on January 18, and Ira opted for a white tank top and black shorts as her running attire. Shortly after, a user on X (formerly Twitter) posted a derogatory comment targeting both her outfit and her body type. <\/p>\n<p>Ira Khan Discusses Guilt at 27<\/p>\n<p> \u201cThis is Ira Khan, daughter of Aamir Khan. The problem is not the clothes, it is the body. I do not get why people refuse to dress for their body type and still choose to walk around looking indecent. Decency never goes out of style,\u201d the user wrote, adding, \u201cOnly XL and XXL can have a problem with this post of mine.\u201dThe post did not sit well with <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/abhinav-shukla\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Abhinav Shukla<\/a>, who publicly slammed the remark and came out in strong support of Ira. He stressed that clothing is a matter of personal choice and applauded Ira for being grounded and authentic. \u201cOne Star Kid who is real &amp; down to earth, she dont act entitled , no drama, no show off, no entourage of 5 bouncers &amp; managers \u2026.much of the time she and her brother are traveling in a rick dressed up like normal kids,\u201d Abhinav wrote.After Abhinav&#8217;s comment, this tweet was deleted. He further added, \u201cWhats wrong here i dont understand ! She is at-least putting an effort to be active ! Dressing is purely personal choice.\u201dAbhinav was not alone in defending Ira, as several social media users also condemned the troll for body-shaming. One user commented, \u201cBody shaming people is such a useless, unnecessary, loser activity. Do better,\u201d while another said, \u201cIt\u2019s her life Sapna let her be &#8211; this is not fair at all .. it\u2019s with these posts that we run us women down.\u201dAnother response read, \u201cA very decent thing to do is not to go looking for someone\u2019s pictures to post them with an unsolicited commentary. Never goes out of style,\u201d while one user added, \u201cIt\u2019s her body and her choice. Dress policing and body shaming are not just regressive, they\u2019re deeply sad. Ira Khan and Agastu\u2019s work on mental health deserves respect, especially Ira\u2019s honest and articulate conversations around depression. Speaking openly about mental health takes courage, and her voice has been genuinely inspiring for many.\u201dOthers echoed similar sentiments, with comments like \u201cMinding your own business is the real decency,\u201d and \u201cA woman shaming another woman\u2019s body is the lowest form of pick-me behaviour.\u201d One post strongly stated, \u201cShe\u2019s not \u2018indecent\u2019. You\u2019re just uncomfortable seeing a woman exist confidently without asking permission.\u201dMeanwhile, Ira has previously been candid about her struggles with body image on social media. In a recent Instagram post, she opened up about grappling with how she perceives her body since 2020, admitting that discussing this felt even more daunting than speaking about her depression.In her post, Ira wrote, \u201cYes, I\u2019m fat. Been oscillating between thinking I\u2019m fat\/unfit, becoming overweight and being obese since 2020. There\u2019s a lot to be said about it. Definitely things I still need to figure out. But I feel at least a small shift for the better, so I\u2019ve decided to start talking about it\/share. I may not be as articulate or confident as when I spoke about my depression. Unlike like that, this feels a little scary. But I really think it needs to be talked about. I don\u2019t have a diagnosed eating disorder, and I\u2019m also not an expert. Just sharing my experiences. Venture into the comment section at your own risk. I know I will be staying far away from it. Let\u2019s see how this goes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ira Khan recently appeared alongside her father, actor Aamir Khan, at the Tata Mumbai Marathon, where she participated&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":432690,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[21239,127589,226344,64,63,113050,85410,447,134,538,179574,226345,226346,555],"class_list":["post-432689","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-aamir-khan","tag-abhinav-shukla","tag-abhinav-shukla-defends-ira-khan","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-body-weight","tag-bodyshaming","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-fitness","tag-ira-khan","tag-ira-khan-body-shaming","tag-marathon-2026","tag-weight-loss"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432689","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=432689"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432689\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432690"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=432689"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=432689"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=432689"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
