FEROZ KHAN is no more. He breathed his last on April 27, 2009 (Monday), at the age of 69. He had been ailing for some time after being diagnosed for cancer. It’s tragic that April has claimed two legendary figures of Bollywood – Shakti Samanta on April 4 and now the dashing Khan.
Born in Bangalore (Sept 25, 1939) to SAK Tanoli (Afghani) and Fatima (Irani), he had Sajay, Sameer and Akbar for his brothers and one sister Dilshad Begum.
Post education, he came to Bombay and landed a role in Didi (1960). His first big hit was Oonche Log (1965). It led to his gradual rise in filmdom and road to success. He gave multitude of hits – Dharmatma (1975), Nagin (1976), Qurbani (1980), Janbaaz (1986) and Dayavaan (1988).
He then took break from acting and concentrated on being a producer, director and editor. Subsequently, he launched the career of his only son Fardeen Khan. Fardeen is now married to yester-year actress Mumtaz’s daughter Natasha Madhwani.
