Aamir Khan’s daughter Ira Khan has shared a special video for her brother Junaid Khan on the occasion of Bhai Dooj. Ira took to Instagram and posted an unseen video of Junaid from one of his theatre plays, A farming story. In the video from backstage of the play, he can be seen painting his face as the show is about to start while Ira can be seen helping others do their make-up.

Penning an elaborate note for her brother Junaid, Ira wrote, “Oh, what to say... so much to say... how to say it right? Happy Bhaubeej, Junnu. I don't think I express or consider how grateful I am to have a brother like mine so that's what I use this day for." Sharing all the love, she wrote, "Junaid is a kickass brother."

Writing on the influence her brother has on her life, she wrote, "Such large chunks of my personality and life are the way they are because of him - all good things! And then we spent a few years away from each other doing various things. When I came back, he said Faezeh was looking for people to help backstage. He was also a part of the play.”

While Junaid started his acting journey with theatre, Ira has no inclination to join Bollywood as an actor. He has been doing plays for more than three years now before studying theatre for two years. At, 21-year-old Ira is pursuing film-making and aspires to be a director.

Expressing respect for her brother's hardwork, Ira further wrote, “Watching Junaid in a professional space is awe-striking. And it reminded me and emphasized to me how much he is outside of just being my brother. Watching him (and discussing him with the rest of the crew behind his back), I was bloated with pride. Of course, I'd never tell him that. But that's the perks of him not being on social media. Take a moment to appreciate the people in your life. And use any excuse to do it. They deserve it and so do you."

Ira and Junaid are Aamir Khan’s children from his first wife Reena Dutta. Recently, Ira Khan opened up about her struggle with depression in a video on Instagram in which she said, “When I was small, my parents got divorced. But that didn’t seem like something that would traumatise me because my parents’ divorce was amicable. They are friends, the whole family is still friends. We are not a broken family by any means.”
