The era of 90s Bollywood is considered a golden period for Hindi cinema, a time when artists like Madhuri Dixit, Akshay Kumar and the Khans, among many others, were starting and making their mark. One of these names was an actress known as Farheen Khan, who starred in huge hits but left the industry at her career’s peak.
Farheen Khan was a top name in 90s Bollywood, who was popularly compared to Madhuri Dixit for her looks. The former actress made her debut with the film Jaan Tere Naam in 1992. Directed by Deepak Balraj Vij, the film starred Ronit Roy and Farheen Khan, both in their debuts as the leads.
On her debut, the media started comparing her to Madhuri Dixit, one of the biggest names of the time, because of her striking resemblance to the Devdas actress. The media gave her the nickname, “Madhuri Dixit No. 2.”
Farheen stepped into the South Indian cinema with the Kannada film Halli Meshtru, which was released in 1992. She was credited as Bindiya for her role. It was directed by Mohan-Manju and also starred Ravichandran and Tara.
Farheen Khan went on to star in 17 films during her career, which include films like Aag Ka Toofan, Fauj, Halli Meshtru, Dil Ke Baazi and Nazar Ke Samne. However, at the peak of her career, she decided to quit films altogether, to focus on her personal life. She started a relationship with cricketer Manoj Prabhakar and married him soon after.
In an earlier interview, Farheen revealed that she met the former cricketer at a gym in 1993. She regularly visited the gym while Manoj was there for treatment, the reports stated further. At that time, Manoj Prabhakar was a married man with a son but was facing issues in the relationship.
As per more information, Farheen now lives in Delhi with her husband Manoj and their two children Raahil and Manavansh. Her stepson, Rohan also lives with them with his wife and child.
