When Madhuri Dixit was at the top of her career, an actress debuted in Bollywood and became famous from the very first film. The biggest reason for this was her face which was exactly like the Dhak Dhak girl. We are talking about Farheen Khan who had once rejected Shah Rukh Khan’s film also.
When Farheen Khan came to Bollywood, she became famous by becoming a lookalike of Madhuri Dixit. Her first film was Jaan Tere Naam with Ronit Roy, which was released in the year 1992. This film was directed by Deepak Balraj Vij. This film was a hit and Farheen was also famous. His face was so similar to that of Madhuri that anyone would be deceived at first sight.
After the first film became a hit, Farheen Khan started getting big offers. You may hardly know that she was also offered Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster film Baazigar, but the actress rejected this film.
Why was Shah Rukh’s film rejected?
Farheen had also given the reason for this in an interview given to Mirror. The actress said-
I said no to Baazigar because I didn’t have dates. At that time I was working in a film with Kamal Haasan. After Kalligan, there was a flood of film offers from the South Industry and I accepted them.
Left career for love
Along with South films, he also worked in some Hindi films. Then in 1994, she fell in love with former cricketer Manoj Prabhakar, who was then married and the father of a son. The actress had told that when she met Manoj, he was busy in his married life. For Manoj’s sake, Farheen put her career at stake and exited the industry in 1997.
Farheen got married despite his first wife.
It is said that Farheen had secretly married Manoj in 1994. At that time the cricketer was not even divorced from his first wife. In the year 2006, Manoj’s first wife Sandhya finally separated and Farheen married her again according to Hindu customs. Manoj has a son from Sandhya and two sons from Farheen.
Where does Farheen live?
After marriage with Manoj Prabhakar, Farheen has shifted to Delhi. She lives in Delhi with her husband, his son Rohan from his first wife and his wife and children, her father-in-law and her two children. After staying away from films, Farheen tried his hand in business. She runs a herbal skincare brand. In 2014, Farheen returned to the film world and worked in the sequel of Jaan Tere Naam.
