A child actor who worked with Anil Kapoor, unexpectedly became the choreographer who insisted on Ram Gopal Varma, a friend of Shahid Kapoor,
The choreographer’s journey is a perfect example of how unexpected turns of life occur, thus achieving success where we least expect it.
Life is full of surprises, and we never really know what to store for us. Sometimes, even the smallest change or decision can bring huge opportunities. These opportunities can always change everything, open up new possibilities, and shape our future in ways we never thought we would.
Today, let’s talk about a Bollywood celebrity who unexpectedly became a choreographer and is now a famous name in the industry. His journey is a perfect example of how unexpected changes in life have taken place to succeed where we least expect it.
We are talking about Ahmed Khan, a well-known Indian choreographer, producer, director and writer who started his career as an actor but later discovered his true passion for choreography. Over the years, he has worked in various Bollywood projects, not only as a choreographer, but also as a writer, producer and director. In 2019, he was a judge on Star Plus’s celebrity dance reality show Nach Baliye 9, which further cemented his position in the industry.
Has been an actor in Mr. India
Ahmed Khan was born on June 3, 1974 in Pune, Maharashtra. As a child actor, he appeared in the movie Mr. India before discovering his passion for choreography. Later, he transitioned to a successful career in choreography and named himself in Bollywood.
Become a choreographer
Ahmed Khan accidentally became a choreographer, and Saroj Khan, who should have been choreographed in Rangeela, was unable to shoot. While she was busy with another project, she sent her assistant Ahmed. Director Ram Gopal Varma, who was reluctant to delay the filming, asked Ahmed if he wanted to take over. Ahmed agreed, but only ten minutes to decide, he agreed, and he eventually arranged Tanha Tanha and Hai Rama. The name Saroj Khan is still praised out of respect, but this moment kicks off Ahmed’s career as choreographer.
Escaped twice
Ahmed Khan encountered two close escapes from his death. In 2001, he filmed at the World Trade Center two days before the September 11 attack. In 2004, he was supposed to live in a hotel that was later destroyed in the Indian Ocean tsunami, but he canceled his reservation at the last minute.
Personal life:
Ahmed Khan married model and producer Shaira Khan, who runs Paperdoll Entertainment. They work together on the movie Paathshaala and Ek Paheli Leela. The couple lives in Andre with their two sons.
