About Imran Khan

He subsequently pursued filmmaking and method acting at the New York Film Academy. He made his adult acting debut in 2008 with the romantic comedy Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, which was a critical and commercial success. His performance in the film won him the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut.

This was followed by a series of box-office flops and a hiatus. Apart from acting in films, Khan 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 has since directed the documentary short film Mission Mars: Keep Walking India (2018).
