In the Indian film industry, several stars experience rapid success with their debut films, only to fade away unexpectedly. One such actress is Huma Khan, renowned for her role in the iconic Bollywood hit, Maine Pyar Kiya, alongside Salman Khan. Despite early success, Huma gradually disappeared from the industry. Born in Pakistan, she started as a child artist in Pakistani films before venturing into Hindi cinema in the 1980s.
Huma Khan was born in Pakistan. She initially began her career as a child artist in her home country, in Pakistani films and TV shows. But she always had a love for Hindi cinema, which later brought her to India in the 1980s. After coming here, Huma became friends with superstar Salman Khan.
As per reports, the actor’s friendship led Huma to bag a role in Sooraj Barjatya’s Maine Pyar Kiya. Although her role was small, she gained recognition, and the movie also turned out to be a huge hit at the box office. Huma later also starred in another Salman film, Hum Saath Saath Hain, which was also a blockbuster.
In 1992, while she was still active in Bollywood, Huma Khan got married to her neighbour and left the industry to focus on her married life. However, years later, as per reports, Huma’s husband divorced her and married her sister Nayeema instead. Later, Huma said that the two had also taken all of her life savings, leaving her penniless and on the verge of death.
Meanwhile, in an interview with Viral Bollywood a few years ago, Huma revealed that, during the lowest phase of her life and career, her old friend Salman helped and saved her. She added that Salman supported her both financially and legally during her court struggle. The former actress said that her current state of existence is all due to the superstar. At the moment, Huma resides in Mumbai, far from the spotlight.
Huma’s friend, Salman Khan, was recently seen in the action thriller Tiger 3. The movie is directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra under the banner of Yash Raj Films. The film stars Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Emraan Hashmi in pivotal roles. It was the sequel to Tiger Zinda Hai (2017). It is the fifth instalment in the YRF Spy Universe.
