Biography

Fardeen Khan, born in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, is an Indian film actor who has been a part of Bollywood since the late 1990s. He hails from a prominent film family, being the son of veteran actor Feroz Khan and the nephew of legendary actor Sanjay Khan.

Fardeen Khan made his acting debut in Bollywood with the film "Prem Aggan" in 1998, directed by his father Feroz Khan. The movie received mixed reviews, but Fardeen's debut performance caught the industry's attention. However, it was his second film, "Jungle" (2000), directed by Ram Gopal Varma, that earned him recognition and appreciation for his acting skills.

Following the success of "Jungle," Fardeen Khan appeared in a series of films throughout the early 2000s, such as "Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega" (2001), "Om Jai Jagadish" (2002), and "Bhoot" (2003). He showcased his versatility by taking on roles in various genres, including comedy, drama, and thriller.

One of his most successful films was "No Entry" (2005), a comedy directed by Anees Bazmee, where he shared the screen with Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor. The film was a commercial hit and contributed to Fardeen's popularity.

While Fardeen Khan enjoyed success in his early career, his later years saw a decline in film offers. He took a hiatus from acting and was occasionally seen in supporting roles. In recent years, there have been occasional rumors and reports suggesting his possible comeback to Bollywood, but as of my last knowledge update in January 2022, no major projects had been announced.

In addition to his film career, Fardeen Khan has also been in the media spotlight for his personal life. He is married to Natasha Madhvani, and the couple has two children.
