Tanaaz on her divorce

In an interaction during a podcast, Tannaz spoke about how her divorce was 'painful and unsettling' in many ways for her daughter. She also called her decision 'immature' and called herself 'callous'.

Talking about A Inner Habit podcast, Tannaz spoke about her relationship with her 32-year- old daughter. "When I walked out, I was very very strong. I was hurt and scared but I was strong because I knew that I was now free to do whatever I wanted to do,” she said, recalling that her daughter stayed with the father.

Tannaz about her daughter

“It was very painful for her. Especially at a time when divorces were not big at all. Very painful for her, very unsettling for her. I was her be all and end all, everything. I think I was very immature, not understanding the bigger picture at that time. I was not evolved at all. I was very young, very callous. I wouldn’t say selfish but I just knew one thing was my goal, just to work at my dreams and be the person I am," Tanaaz spoke about her daughter's experience. 

Tannaz said that she did not have enough guidance at the time and did not realise that what she was doing was perhaps not correct. "There was something about me that I didn’t understand, maybe no one explained it to me, no one taught it to me, no one had a discussion with me, no one guided me so I thought it’s okay to do what I did and maybe I was wrong,” she said and added that she has since made amends with her daughter.

Ever since then, of course, I have apologised to her, I have spoken to her. Now that she is in a better space and I am in a better space and there are so many things I open up with her today which maybe she was devoid of at that time because there was no one to help at that time. They were very barbaric ages as far as emotions were concerned,” she added.

Tannaz is now married to Bakhtiyar Irani. They have two kids: Zeus and Zara.
