Imran Khan’s Startling Response To How He’d React If A Teacher Hit His Daughter: ‘I Might Be Driven to Commit Murder’

Imran Khan, best known for his role in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, stepped away from the limelight to prioritise his mental health. Following his hiatus in 2015 after a series of box-office failures, the actor has been quite active on social media and often shares glimpses of his life away from the media spotlights. Recently, the 41-year-old has shared his opinions on parenting and reflected on his 10-year-old daughter, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Avantika Malik.

Imran Khan appeared on an episode of We Are Yuvaa’s YouTube talk show, Be A Man Yaar, and opened up about his thoughts on parenting and the idea of teachers using corporal punishment on children. He discussed the challenges he faced growing up within the Indian education system, recalling his time at Bombay Scottish in Mumbai.

He said, “I have been to a number of schools. I started off in Bombay Scottish in Bombay. At that point, they believed that all behaviour could be corrected with caning. So, you wear the wrong colour socks to school? Caning! You forgot to bring a book to school? Caning! You haven’t done your homework? Guess what? Still more caning! The regularity with which the teachers used to beat us had really started to get to me.”
