Britain born Model-turned-actress Jiah Khan, who made
debut starring opposite Amitabh Bachchan in Ramgopal Varma’s Nishabd, has
committed suicide yesterday (03 May, 2013)
The 25-year-old actress body has been shifted for autopsy
at Cooper Hospital in Juhu, Mumbai. Police is investigating reasons that would
have led to suicide.
Her real name is Nafisa. Rabiya
Amin (her mother), was a lesser-known actress in 1980s. Rabiya was best
remembered for appearing in Tahir Hussain's ‘Dulha Bikta Nahin’.
Young Nafisa studied film and literature in London and then moved to New York to attend the famed Lee Strasberg Academy of Dramatic Arts. She quit her acting course after she got offer in Bollywood.
She was supposed to do Mahesh Bhatt's ‘Tumsa Nahin Dekha’ (which was released in 2004). Jiah, who was then just 16, backed out of the role of a strip dancer. She felt it was too mature for her, later she was replaced by Dia Mirza.
She debuted in 2007 opposite Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, 70 in ‘Nishabd’., which released in 2007. The film which a controversial story-line was reportedly inspired by both Kevin Spacey film American Beauty and Rajesh Khanna's Anokha Rishta. Jiah played a seductive teen, who falls in love with her best friend's father (Amitabh Bachchan). The film shocked critics and cine-goers with its provoking content. Jiah was extensively praised for her confidence, screen presence and appeal. She was nominated for a Filmfare Best Debut award and became known as Bollywood's next big thing.
She later bagged superhit film Ghajini (released in 2008), starring Aamir Khan and Asin. Jiah played medical student Sunita who investigates and then befriends a puzzling businessman with amnesia.
Her third film Housefull (2010) was a blockbuster, in which she played the third female lead with Deepika Padukone and Lara Dutta.
She was also cast opposite Shahid Kapoor in ‘Chance Pe Dance’. She was replaced by Genelia D’Souza, after shooting a large portion of the film.
She was rumoured to be Aamir Khan’s step sister. Aamir’s father, producer Tahir Hussain had worked with Jiah’s mother Rabiya in a few films several years back. And it all started with that ‘working relationship’. By the way, Jiah herself doesn’t know who her father is, except the information passed on by her mother that her father was an American.
Her last tweet dated 24 May, says “So sorry I have been off twitter! Took a bit of a break from twitter verse.. sometimes u need a sabbatical to recollect ur thoughts (sic).”
