Imran Khan, the heartthrob of a bygone era, continues to hold a special place in our hearts. Imran is among the actors we miss seeing onscreen. Khan made his mark in the film industry during the late 2000s with his charismatic charm and good looks. Born in a family deeply rooted in Bollywood, Imran Khan's entry into the industry was quite predictable. His uncle, Aamir Khan, was already a superstar, and Imran carried the torch forward with remarkable finesse.
Imran's breakthrough came with 'Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na' in 2008, directed by Abbas Tyrewala. His portrayal of Jai Singh Rathore, a lovable and relatable character, resonated with the youth. Imran's chemistry with co-star Genelia D'Souza was undeniable, and the audience loved their on-screen romance.
Following the success of his debut, Imran went on to deliver remarkable performances in movies like 'I Hate Luv Storys,' 'Delhi Belly,' and 'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan.' His ability to effortlessly take up various roles, be it the quirky bachelor or the lovable rogue, showcased his versatility as an actor.
However, as the years passed, Imran Khan had a more selective approach to his acting career. He opted for quality over quantity, which only added to the mystique surrounding him. Although his filmography may not be as extensive as some of his contemporaries, each of his movies left an indelible mark on the audience.
