Imran Khan

Imran Khan is an American-born Bollywood actor. He was born on January 13, 1983 in Madison, Wisconsin. His parents are Anil Pal and Nuzhat Khan; they divorced shortly after the birth of Imran. Imran spent most of his childhood being raised by his mother in India; that is why he kept the surname Khan.

While he was in India he attended the Bombay Scottish School, Mahim in Mumbai, and he studied in Bangalore for a short period of time. He eventually moved back to the United States to finish High School in California with his father. It was while in Los Angeles, California that Imran Khan studied film making professionally.

Even from a young age, Imran Khan was always surrounded by the film industry. He is the nephew of mega-acting star Aamir Khan and the director Mansoor khan. He is also the grandson of noted director and producer Nasir Hussain.

When he was a young boy, Imran starred in two films, ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’ and ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander.’ Both times he played the role of a young Aamir Khan. Imran’s original aspirations were to be a director.

It turns out that he preferred being in front of the camera rather than behind it. While in Mumbai, Imran Kahn joined Kishore Namit Kapoor’s Acting Institute to study the art of being an actor.

Imran Khan finally got his first role as a leading actor in 2008’s ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na.’ The film was directed by Aamir Khan and starred the actress Genelia D’Souza. The film opened to fantastic reviews by critics and was a box office success.

His second starring role had him playing the villain in the film ‘Kidnap.’ The film was not as big as a success of his first film. Imran Khan has two films slated to come out in 2009, ‘Luck’ and ‘Delhi Baby.â€
