Many heroines came and went in the film industry. The world is still impressed by the beauty of some, while there were many who were called lookalikes. Today we will talk about one such heroine, who was called Madhuri Dixit’s lookalike and despite successful films, could not succeed in making her own identity. After debuting with the 1992 film ‘Jaan Tere Naam’, this actress became a well-known name in the 1990s. This film made her famous, but from the release of this film itself, she started being compared to Madhuri Dixit. This actress is none other than Farheen Khan.
Got the look-alike tag from the very first film
Actress Farheen Khan was often compared to Madhuri Dixit because their facial features and mannerisms were similar. She was called Madhuri’s lookalike. Despite the success of ‘Jaan Tere Naam’ and the popularity of the song ‘Pehli Baar Dekha Tumhein’, her career did not reach the heights like Madhuri. Farheen appeared in a few more films and then disappeared. Farheen Khan played the role of Akshay Kumar’s sister in ‘Sainik’ released in 1993. Her character in this film was appreciated. Apart from Bollywood, Farheen was also working a lot in South films and she got real success there.
That’s why I didn’t work with Shahrukh
In the year 1993 itself, she did a film with Kamal Haasan, named ‘Kalagannan’. Interestingly, in the same year, Farheen was offered the role of Seema in the blockbuster film ‘Baazigar’ opposite Shahrukh Khan, which later went to Shilpa Shetty. However, she chose to work in ‘Kalagannan’ instead, which was called a superhit film of Tamil cinema at that time. Farheen Khan is now away from films. She completely quit acting after getting married.
