Jiah Khan Biography :



Jiah Khan was born on 20th February 1988 in New York, USA. Her mother Rabiya is
an actress. Jiah Khan studied English literature and took acting lessons from
Lee Strasberg's Institute, London, U K. Being a passionate singer Jiah Khan took
formal training in classical opera. Besides acting, singing and playing piano,
Jiah Khan is also an extremely good dancer. She is well trained in five
different types of dances, namely, lambada, salsa, samba, belly dancing and
Kathak.



Jiah Khan – The multi-faceted actress



Jiah Khan, the multi-faceted actress has a powerful screen presence and is very
serious to make it big in Bollywood. Famous movie director Mahesh Bhatt had
aptly commented saying, "She has real talent and a powerful screen presence. She
is quick to learn and she's not just flirting with a career in the movies. She
wants to make it to the top of the heap."



Just at the age of sixteen, she had decided to release her own album and almost
recorded six pop numbers but the financial constraints put a leash on her
musical dreams. Acting being her first love; Jiah Khan is totally concentrating
on her acting career and is on the threshold of fulfilling her dreams with "Nishabd".




Her first film would have been Mahesh Bhatt's "Tumsa Nahin Dekha", starring
Emraan Hashmi, but was dropped at the last moment for unknown reasons and her
role went to Dia Mirza. As luck would have it, "Nishabd" came her way. It's a
film about a girl in her teens, who falls in love with a 60-year old. The role
is very challenging and a perfect opportunity for Jiah to prove her acting
abilities.



Jiah Khan may just Dhoom 3



Ever since the promos of Nishabd are out, with a nimble Jiah drenched in water,
she has caught attention of the public eye and now the stunning actress is being
flooded with offers.



“I have been getting a lot of offers,” says Jiah, “but I have not decided
anything as yet.” Jiah recently got an offer from Sanjay Gadhvi of Dhoom and
Dhoom 2 fame. As rumours have it, Jiah refused to work with Gadhvi as he did not
divulge much about his upcoming project, which was simply not acceptable to Jiah.




But when we had a word with the actress, she confirmed, “I did get an offer from
Sanjay Gadhvi, but I am yet to consider it.” Jiah hasn’t really turned down
Sanjay Gadhvi’s offer. And there are chances that she may agree to work with
him.
