Zayed Khan

Zayed Abbas Khan (born 5 July 1980^[1]) is an Indian actor who acts in Hindi films

Early life

Khan's parents are former Bollywood actor Sanjay Khan and interior designer Zarine Khan. Khan is the youngest of four children. His older sisters are Simone Khan (wife of Ajay Arora), Sussanne Roshan (married to actor Hrithik Roshan), and Farah Khan Ali (wife of DJ Aqeel). Khan is related as first cousin to yet another Bollywood actor, Fardeen Khan, whose father is the late actor Feroz Khan, who was Khan's father's brother.^[2]

Khan attended Welham Boys' School, Dehradun, and later Kodaikanal International School, Kodaikanal, with childhood friend Esha Deol and Mallaika Parekh. He studied Business Management at the University of Washington and Film Making at London Film Academy. Zayed Khan married Mallaika Parekh on 20 November 2005.^[3] They have a son, Zidaan, who was born on 18 January 2008,^[4] and welcomed a second son named Aariz on 22 September 2011.

Career

Khan made his screen debut in 2003 in the film Chura Liyaa Hai Tumne.^[5]

In 2004, he starred in Main Hoon Na, which was one of the biggest hits in his career. It was the second highest-grossing film of 2004 behind Veer-Zaara and was declared a hit. Khan was subsequently nominated for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2005.

Khan had 4 releases in 2005, which is his highest number to date. He played an obsessive lover in Vaada alongside Arjun Rampal and Ameesha Patel, but the film proved unsuccessful and was a flop at the box office. He then starred in Shabd as a photography professor, which he was very excited about because he had always wanted to do a film with Aishwarya Rai. However, it failed at the box office. His third release, Anubhav Sinha's action thriller Dus, where he played a cop, did well. It was an above-average grosser and was the third highest-grossing film of 2005. Khan's final release of the year, Shaadi No. 1 flopped at the box office.

Next, he appeared in Rocky: The Rebel. Khan revealed that he had ghost-written some scenes in the film. He had first begun script-writing when he was studying in London. He replaced John Abraham, who backed out of the film, in Fight Club - Members Only which was his last release in 2006.

Both of his films in 2007 were action multi-starrers. Anubhav Sinha's Cash was originally meant to be the sequel to Dus, but ended up differently. Due to this, some of the cast of Dus also star in Cash. It performed reasonably well in its first week, but was unable to replicate the success of Dus and was eventually declared a flop. Speed also failed.

In 2008, Khan co-starred in the Bollywood remake of Rain Man, Yuvvraaj with Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anil Kapoor. It was a disaster at the box office. He then had the leading role as a news reporter in Apoorva Lakhia's Mission Istaanbul opposite Vivek Oberoi but it failed at the box office.

'Khan was recommended by Sanjay Dutt for 2009's Blue. At the time of its release, Blue broke the record for having the highest budget for a Bollywood film. It had an excellent opening weekend, collecting 480 million but was a below-average grosser.^[6] He also filmed Sharafat Gayi Tel Lene which is a comic thriller film. However, it ran into some production hassles and is yet to be released.

Khan also had a special appearance as an infidel fiancé in the Ranbir Kapoor-Priyanka Chopra starrer Anjaana Anjaani.

From 2011 on, the actor has also ventured into production with his co-owned production house, Born Free Entertainment along with good friend Dia Mirza and her fiancé Sahil Sanga. Their first film, Love Breakups Zindagi was released on 7 October 2011, but was met with a lukewarm response.

In 2012, Khan played a supporting role in Tezz which stars Anil Kapoor and Ajay Devgan in the lead. His next film, Ameesha Patel's maiden production, Desi Magic began principal photography on 2 July 2013.

In 1957, the family again moved to Delhi where he attended Delhi Public School, Mathura Road. Although the family moved back to Mumbai in 1960, he was sent to Barnes School in [[Deolali]South], near Nashik. It was during his time at the boarding school that he watched the epic Solva Saal and Mughal-e-Azam and fell in love with motion pictures. He graduated with a commerce degree from Sydenham College.^[1]

Career

Vinod Khanna was extremely popular and successful as a lead actor in the seventies and the eighties. He is considered to be one of the most good looking actors in Bollywood. Khanna debuted in Sunil Dutt's 1968 film Man Ka Meet as a villain.^[2] At the start of his career, he played supporting and negative characters in hit films from 1968-1972 such as Purab Aur Paschim (1970), Sachaa Jhutha (1970) and Mera Gaon Mera Desh (1971)^[2] Mastana, Elaan and Aan Milo Sajna.

Because of his charming personality, he became popular with the audience and soon got offers for lead roles. He is one of the few Bollywood actors who could successfully transition from negative roles to positive lead roles. It was films like Mere Apne, Hum Tum Aur Woh and Parchaiyaan, between 1971-72, which displayed that Vinod Khanna could play the main lead heroes role too. Mere Apne and Hum Tum Aur Woh were both superhits but Parchaiyaan was a box office flop.He got his first break as lead hero in the film Hum Tum Aur Woh (1971), a box-office hit which was followed by the 1971 film Mere Apne directed by Gulzar. It was the melodious R.D. composed Rafi-Asha “Sasoan Mein Kabhi” from the box office flop film Parchaiyaan in 1972, where his romantic skills got noticed among auidences. His performance as an army officer facing death row in another Gulzar scripted and directed 1973 film Achanak was critically acclaimed. The songless film echoed the true life story of K. M.

From 1973-1982, Khanna starred in numerous successful solo and multi starrer movies. In films with ‘Rajesh Khanna’ as the lead hero, Vinod Khanna always had either the antagonist role or supporting role and not even the parallel lead. These film were Sachaa Jhutha Aan Milo Sajna, Prem Kahani, Kudrat and Rajput. All the five films were superhits.

In 1987, he returned to Bollywood with his comeback movie Insaaf opposite Dimple Kapadia. The movie was a big hit and proved that the audience still accepted him as a lead actor. From 1987 to 1994, Khanna again worked as a hero in several solo and multi starrer movies. After he made comeback in 1987, his solo hero films released in 1987-88 like Satyamev Jayate , Insaaf , Mahaadev and Aakhri Adaalat were big hits.

Career

Early work

After winning Zee TV's supermodel hunt in 2002, Patel began modelling for Hugo Boss, Paul Smith and Zegna. He started his acting career with singer/song writer Romey Gill's "Sadeyan paran to sikhi udna."

He received the MTV India Most Stylish Male Award 2 years in a row. He won F awards as India's number one Supermodel, which led to many more endorsements including Tuscan Verve, Hugo Boss, Tommy Hilfiger, Provogue and D'damas Desire. He has campaigned for brands like Wendell Rodrick, Vikram Phadnis and Westside.

1990's

With his portrayal of an amateur boxer wrongly accused of his brother’s murder in Rajkumar Santoshi's Ghayal, Sunny proved that he still ruled the industry when it came to action sequences.

2000s

In 2001, he starred in the film Farz opposite Preity Zinta.^[21] Sunny played the role of lorry driver Tara Singh who falls in love with a Muslim girl in Anil Sharma’s Gadar: Ek Prem Katha. The partition saga went to become an all time blockbuster and was the highest grossing Bollywood film ever that time as well as the biggest hit of the 21st century, earning Rs 973 million in India.^[22][23] He was nominated for the Filmfare Best Actor Award for his portrayal.^[24] His third release that year saw him playing the title role in the action film Indian, a remake of the Tamil film Vallarasu in which Sunny essayed the character of DCP Rajshekhar Azad, an honest police officer. The movie was a success.^[21] Sunny’s next few projects were extremely patriotic in nature and struck a chord with audiences across the country. He played the role of an Indian military officer in Maa Tujhhe Salaam and essayed the character of freedom fighter Chandrashekhar Azad in 23rd March 1931: Shaheed.

2010s

Deol's first release of 2010 was Right Yaaa Wrong.^[31] The film was critically successful, but moderately successful commercially.^[32] Yamla Pagla Deewana was Sunny's only release in 2011 and one of the biggest successes of the year^[33] In 2011, he started working in Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru's I Love New Year opposite Tannishtha Chatterjee and in Chandraprakash Dwivedi's Mohalla Assi opposite Sakshi Tanwar but for some reason's both films have been delayed.
