Khan is regarded as one of the most popular, good-looking and stylish celebrities in India. He is a social activist, and has written columns for
The Hindustan Times. He is a supporter of
PETA, having appeared in events organised for the group. He married Avantika Malik in January 2011, after a ten-year relationship.
EARLY LIFE AND BACKGROUND[EDIT]
Khan and his mother moved to
Mumbai, India after his parents divorced.
[5] He appeared in the films
Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988) and
Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander (1992) as a child artist, both times playing the role of a young Aamir Khan.
[6][7] He studied at
Bombay Scottish School, where he developed a
stammer due to
corporal punishments such as
caning.
[8] According to Khan, his grades fell and his academic career went into a "strong decline" due to his inability to cope with his environment; he became nervous and developed facial tics.
[8] As a result, his parents transferred him to Blue Mountain School (a
boarding school) in
Coonoor.
[9][10] Khan described his experience there as "phenomenal"; when the principal left to start his own school, he and several other students followed him to a
Gurukul in the jungles of
Ooty,
[9]with no electricity where the students washed their clothes in a creek and grew some of the food they ate.
[9] Khan later admitted that frequently changing schools made him independent but also a loner.
[5]
ACTING CAREER[EDIT]
2008–10: Debut and breakthrough[edit]
While training at the acting institute, Khan began networking and met writer-director
Abbas Tyrewala, who offered him the lead role in
Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na (2008).
[13] After producer Jhamu Sugandh experienced financial difficulties they offered the script to Aamir Khan, who agreed to finance the film.
[6][14] The romantic comedy received positive reviews and was a commercial success,
[15] earning
830 million (US$13 million) worldwide.
[16] Khan's portrayal of Jai Singh Rathore (Rats)—a boy who does not believe in violence—was praised by critics.
Khalid Mohammed mentioned that "the enterprise belongs to debutant Imran Khan who comes up with an intelligent and restrained performance."
[17] Rajeev Masand of
CNN-IBN called him "the best young actor" of the time, describing his performance as "unconventional and vulnerable" and stating that it created "a lasting impression."
[18] Khan won the
Best Male Debut at the
54th Filmfare Awards, sharing the award with
Farhan Akhtar.
[19]
Following
Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, Khan starred in
Sanjay Gadhvi's thriller
Kidnap. He was cast as Kabir Sharma, a
kidnapper who abducts a girl to settle an old score with her father, portrayed by
Minissha Lamba and
Sanjay Dutt, respectively. The actor was initially hesitant to play the part (calling it "tricky and tough") because he couldn't relate to the character; according to him, he would not have been able to do it without Gadhvi's support and backing.
[20] In preparation for his role, Khan listened to
metal and
rock music for a year to become aggressive.
[20] While the film was a critical failure, his performance was generally well received by critics. Gaurav Malani, in a review for
The Economic Times, wrote: "Imran Khan is effective as the intelligent abductor who's always two steps ahead of his opponent. However, the natural actor could go easy on his lip movements that appear synthetic at times."
[21][22] Kidnap was also a commercial failure, despite a strong opening at the box office.
[23]
In 2009, Khan featured alongside an ensemble cast including Dutt,
Shruti Hassan,
Mithun Chakraborty and
Danny Denzongpa in Soham Shah's action thriller
Luck, playing Ram Mehra—an average middle-class man in dire need of money and ready to do anything for it.
[24] In an interview he said that the
stunts (and the "unusual" concept of human betting) inspired him to sign the film.
[25] He burnt his eyelashes while shooting the climax scene.
[25] It was a commercial failure
[26] and generated negative reviews from critics, as did Khan's performance.
Rediff.com's Raja Sen stated that the performance lacked the charm of his earlier ones.
[27]
After the failure of
Kidnap and
Luck, Khan received fewer film offers, until
Karan Johar approached him for the lead role in
I Hate Luv Storys (2010).
[28] Directed by
Punit Malhotra, the romantic comedy saw him portray Jai Dhingra, a young
Casanova who does not believe in the concept of love and romance. The film garnered mixed reviews from critics;
[29]Khan's performance was generally well received.
Komal Nahta wrote, "Imran Khan is endearing and does well for a good part of the film. But he does need to improve in emotional scenes. [He] is free and lovable in the light scenes.
[30][31][32] I Hate Luv Storys was a domestic and international box-office success, earning
725.2 million (US$11 million).
[16][33] Khan expressed his gratitude that Johar gave him the opportunity.
[28] His next appearance was in
Danish Aslam's
coming-of-age romantic comedy
Break Ke Baad. A commercial failure,
[34] the film (and his performance) received mixed reviews;
[35]while Namrata Joshi of
Outlook labelled his performance "earnest",
[36] Anupama Chopra said that "Imran is saddled with a bland, supporting role".
[37]
2011–12: Commercial success[edit]
In 2011, Khan earned positive reviews for his role in
Abhinay Deo's English language
[38] black comedy Delhi Belly. He was cast as Tashi, a journalist caught up in a hunt for diamonds—smuggled for a
crime boss in Delhi—he and his roommates (
Kunaal Roy Kapur and
Vir Das) have mistakenly taken. The film opened to critical acclaim and was a commercial success, with a domestic revenue of over
550 million (US$8.6 million).
[39] A review in
Mid Day described his performance as "refreshingly good"
[40] and
Nikhat Kazmi of
The Times of India called it his best work to date.
[41] Khan said "It is the kind of film that I have always wanted to do, and it is very different to what has been done before in Hindi cinema."
[42] Later that year, Khan acted in
Ali Abbas Zafar's romantic comedy
Mere Brother Ki Dulhan. It received mixed reviews, but was a box-office success, with domestic earnings of over
578 million (US$9.1 million).
[43] Khan played Kush Agnihotri, a man who falls in love with his brother's bride, played by
Ali Zafar and
Katrina Kaif, respectively. His performance was praised by critics;
Sify's Sonia Chopra referred to him as "instantly likeable".
[44][45]
For his next feature film, Khan starred as Rahul Kapoor, an uptight architect, in
Shakun Batra's directorial debut
Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (2012) with
Kareena Kapoor. The romantic comedy, set in
Las Vegas, is the story of two strangers who get married one night after they get drunk. Khan described his character as "a guy who lives his life according to his parents' wishes."
[46] Critical reaction to the film and his performance was positive, with Rajeev Masand writing that "Imran Khan slips comfortably into his role".
[47] Karan Anshuman of
Mumbai Mirror opined, "Imran Khan is superbly cast and he doesn't let down. His body language slackens in progression as the script demands and he is absolutely spot on with his comic timing."
[48][49] Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu was a modest commercial success, earning a total of
530 million (US$8.3 million) in India and abroad.
[50]
2013–present[edit]
In 2013, Khan appeared in three films, the first being
Vishal Bhardwaj's
Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola, a
political satire set in the rustic surroundings of a village in
Haryana. Co-starring with
Pankaj Kapur,
Anushka Sharma and
Shabana Azmi, Khan played Hukum Singh Matru, an educated community activist and Kapur's right-hand man. To prepare for the role, he lived in
Delhi for three months and learned to speak
Haryanvi from theatre group Act One.
[51][52] The film (and his performance) generated mixed reviews from critics, and its eventual box-office profit was poor.
[53][54] Reuters ' Shilpa Jamkhandikar wrote, "Imran Khan goes red in the face trying to muster up a Haryanvi accent and act tough. You can actually see the effort in his acting and that's why it jars all the more."
[55]Subhash K Jha described it as a good effort, at best.
[56] Khan also sang for the film's soundtrack in "Chaar Dina Ki".
[57]
OTHER VENTURES[EDIT]
Social activism[edit]
Khan addressing the media about the Maharashtra state government's new law raising the drinking age to 25
Besides acting in films, Khan is a social activist. He often speaks about issues related to Indian society and young people (including the elimination of violence against women, political awareness and sex education).
[66][67] In 2009, he participated in
Eve Ensler's play
The Vagina Monologues in celebration of completing 200 shows in India and
V-Day. The event was a fundraiser whose beneficiaries included Haseena Hussein (a girl who was blinded and disfigured in an acid attack in Bangalore in 1999), and several other
NGOs.
[68][69] Khan endorses
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), and has appeared in a number of
advertisements in support of the organisation. In 2010 he appeared with his dog, Tony, urging viewers to adopt stray dogs instead of buying purebred animals.
[70] Khan filmed a second advertisement in 2011, titled "Tony Changed My Life. You Can Change a Homeless Dog's Life. Please Adopt", after Tony's death in which he continued to advocate for the adoption of animals and not treating them as fashion statements.
[71]
In 2011, Khan and his brother-in-law, Vedant Malik, opposed the
Maharashtra state government's new law raising the drinking age to 25 by filing a
public-interest litigation (PIL) against it.
[72] In an interview given to
The Times of India he said; "It's completely unfair to expect that one has to wait till 25 years to exercise his freedom of choice regarding one's lifestyle. Young India is not as irresponsible as the older establishment assumes it to be."
[73] He walked the ramp to support
Shabana Azmi's charitable initiative, Mijwan Welfare Society, an NGO dedicated to empowering girls.
[74] He said that he feels privileged to have been brought up in a family surrounded by strong women.
[75] In 2013, Khan along with his wife Avantika Malik and mother Nuzhat Khan, purchased a four-acre land which will be converted into an animal shelter with veterinary doctors and staff who will attend to the rescued animals until they are adopted.
[76][77]
In December 2013, it was announced that Khan, along with famed comedy group All India Bakchod, will be heading up a campaign against the recently reinstated ban on gay sex in India through a satirical video highlighting ignorances around gay issues.
[78] Speaking to
Hindustan Times, Khan said: “I’ve always been involved with gay rights. The scenario in this country is disheartening and depressing. These are basic human rights that people are being denied of; they’re no minority. The idea of this initiative is to show those who do not support homosexuality, how ridiculous their thinking is.” Other Bollywood stars have spoken out to condemn the reintroduction of the law.
[79]
In 2014, it was announced that he had joined other Bollywood and international celebrities in the
TeachAIDS initiative, a state-of-the-art approach to worldwide HIV prevention, developed at
Stanford University.
[80]
Commentary and endorsements[edit]
Khan became a
columnist for
The Hindustan Times in March 2009. In his first column he wrote "I like the idea of being able to connect with people one to one, and generally having a space to talk about whatever’s going on in my head that week",
[81] and continues contributing occasionally to the paper.
[82] According to Khan, promoting
alcohol and
tobaccoproducts is not right; he has refused all such offers,
[83] saying that he only represents brands he can relate to.
[84] He has endorsed several products (including
Coca-Cola,
Levis,
MTS India,
Maaza, Bru and
Lux, having appeared in television and print advertisements.
[85][86][87][88][89]
PERSONAL LIFE[EDIT]
Khan and Avantika Malik at their wedding reception, February 2011
Khan's parents divorced when he was a year and a half old.
[5] His mother then married actor
Raj Zutshi; they divorced in 2006.
[90] Khan says that they remained cordial and that he felt supported by all three of his parents.
[91] He retained his mother's second name as a tribute to her because she raised him on her own.
[2]The actor lives with his family in
Pali Hill, a suburban neighbourhood in Mumbai.
[92]
Khan began dating Avantika Malik (daughter of Vandana Malik, CEO of the
CNBC-TV18 business news channel),
[93] at age 19 – according to him, when he could not express his thoughts and feelings. He later attributed his personal growth to his relationship with Malik: "I have learned a lot about myself and become a more balanced person."
[5] His openness about their relationship at an early stage of his career received much press coverage;
[14][94] Sitanshi Talati-Parikh of
Verve commented, "he does not see any danger in tagging himself as 'unavailable'".
[5] Khan later explained that he did not believe in hiding their relationship;
[95] he cited
Shahrukh Khan,
Aamir Khan and
Hrithik Roshan, all of whom married early in their careers and remained popular.
[96] The couple were engaged on 16 January 2010, in a farmhouse owned by Avantika's family in
Karjat (near
Navi Mumbai).
[97] They married a year later (on 10 January 2011) in a private civil ceremony at Aamir Khan's home in Pali Hill.
[98][99] On December 6, 2013, it was announced that the couple were expecting their first child
[100] and on June 9, 2014, Malik gave birth to a baby girl,
[101][102] Imara Malik Khan.
[103]
Khan's non-controversial lifestyle has generated speculation in the mass media.
[104][105] During an interview, he said he does not rely on controversy and rumours to stay in the news.
[106] The actor also asserted that he prefers to stay away from the limelight when not promoting his films.
[107]
IMAGE AND ARTISTRY[EDIT]
Khan at an endorsement photoshoot, 2013
Khan is considered as one of the most popular, stylish and handsome celebrities in India.
[108][109][110] His eyes and lips have been mentioned as his most distinctive physical features.
[111] In 2011,
Bombay Dost, India's first legal gay magazine, labelled him a "
gay icon".
[112] The following year he was featured on
GQ India 's list of "Bollywood's 11 Best-Dressed Actors", which described his style sense: "grown and matured into an irresistible combination of goody-two-shoesness and an urbane sophistication."
[108] In 2013, he ranked fortieth on Forbes' "Celebrity 100", a list based on the income and popularity of India's biggest entertainers.
[113]
Following his successful adult acting debut in
Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, Khan starred in
Kidnap and
Luck; both were critical and commercial failures, leading to his being written off by the media as a "one-film wonder".
[114] He later starred in a series of romantic comedies, most of which were commercially successful, but received mixed response from critics.
[115] Writing for CNN-IBN, Rituparna Chatterjee criticized his unwillingness to "get out of his comfort zone"; she explained, "Imran's unassuming charm, while it works in films that also have strong women leads, fails to really create an emotional connect with audiences who go away thinking 'what a nice boy!
'"
[116]
After moving from his "lover boy" image in
Delhi Belly and
Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola,
[86] Khan was noted for experimenting with different genres and character types.
[117][118] According to
Daily Mail 's Priyanka Srivastava, "Imran's image as a simple boy has charmed the audience [...] and helped him make a place in Bollywood. He has the ability to underplay characters with confidence and has proved his versatility."
[119] The Hindu 's Vijay Nair, however, labelled him as "unconvincing" and said that he "[delivers] performances that suffer in comparison to what his co stars bring to the film."
[120]
Khan has been compared to his uncle
Aamir Khan, whom he describes as a major influence on his life,
[121] as he taught him that a person can learn from their mistakes.
