Sanjay Khan, younger brother of popular actor and filmmaker Firoz Khan, is celebrating his 84th birthday today i.e. on 3rd January. Sanjay Khan debuted in Bollywood in 1964 with the film ‘Haqeeqat’ and after that he appeared in many films. Sanjay did not get as much success as his elder brother Firoz Khan and more than films, Sanjay Khan is remembered for the incident with his then girlfriend Zeenat Aman. Sanjay Khan and Zeenat Aman once loved each other very much. Zeenat Aman fell in love with married Sanjay Dutt. Both of them got married in 1978, which lasted only for 1 year. But what happened between the two, after which everything ended? Let us know.
Why did Zeenat Aman and Sanjay Khan’s relationship break?
Zeenat Aman’s career was at its peak in the 80s. Zeenat also married her favorite person and Zeenat loved Sanjay very much. Many years ago, Zeenat Aman had once again mentioned that incident in Simi Garewal’s show. Zeenat had told that she loved Sanjay so much that she started accepting everything he said, whether it was good or bad. But soon after the marriage, both of them started fighting. Zeenat Aman was associated with the film ‘Abdullah’, but was also shooting for other films.
A song from the film ‘Abdullah’ was to be shot and Zeenat was shooting for another film in Lonavala at that time. Sanjay Khan called him and asked him to come back immediately. When Zeenat did not respond angrily he said come back otherwise it would not be good. Saying this he hung up the phone. It is said that Zeenat had left for Mumbai from Lonavala with a friend and was driving the car herself. Zeenat knew that Sanjay was angry and thought that she would convince him.
Why did Sanjay Khan beat Zeenat Aman?
In this interview, Zeenat also told the whole story. When Zeenat went to Sanjay’s house, she came to know that Sanjay was partying in a hotel in Mumbai. Sanjay was drunk and when Zeenat was trying to talk to him, he was shaking her. Sanjay was also accompanied by his first wife Zareen Katrak and some special friends. Zeenat had thought that she would resolve her and Sanjay’s fight and then go back to Lonav, but that did not happen. When Zeenat asked him to talk, Sanjay took her to the room and beat her. Zeenat described that day as a dark day for herself because she was deeply hurt and heartbroken.
Zeenat Aman divorced Sanjay Khan
The news of the fight between the two had spread in the industry. According to reports, Zeenat Aman’s doctor had then said that Sanjay had permanently damaged one of her eyes. However, Sanjay told the media that Zeenat has a disease, which is genetic and she inherited this disease from her mother. After this incident, their marriage could not last and they both got divorced after a year.
