A doting daddy
Imran is a hands-on dad to his little baby girl, Imara Malik Khan, who has wrapped daddy deary around her tiny finger. Imran ‘crumbled and fell’ the moment he saw her and held her in his arms. He even got done a fully-equipped nursery for her, which is complete with cameras and monitors for the times when he is away from his little princess. Well, why are our eyes wet?
An ardent cook
Who doesn’t like a good looking man who loves to cook? Well, yeah, Avantika Malik is one lucky woman. Imran loves to cook as it helps him relax and unwind.
An animal lover
Imran is a big animal lover, and does his bit for the moot, four-legged friends. He, along with his mother Nuzhat Khan and wife Avantika Malik, runs an animal shelter which rescues strays and is equipped with professionals and medics.
A social activist
Like his uncle Aamir Khan, Imran too is a social activist and does not shy away from speaking his mind on issues that matter. He supports various charities.
The true Bollywood style lover
Imran fell in love with Avantika when he was 19 and the latter just 16. After dating each other for a while, the way Imran proposed Avantika was something every girl dreams of. He sneaked into her room, decorated it with candles, and went down on one knee. Aww!
The real name
Well, Imran’s real name was Imran Pal, after his father Ankit Pal, who was a Hindu of Bengali descent. However, post the divorce of his parents, he adopted his maternal surname.
A cute child actor
Did you know ‘Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na’ was not the first time Imran Khan faced the camera? He was there in his uncle Aamir Khan’s ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander’ wherein he played the younger version of Aamir Khan. He took our heart away in his few minutes of on-screen appearance. Look at his chubby cheeks. He was also there in ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’.
Imran Khan, the cute and calm ‘Rats’ aka Jai Singh Rathod, made a smashing entry into our hearts with the 2008 successful romantic comedy, ‘Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na’. Since then, he has played many romantic roles, in various avatars, from the Casanova of ‘I Hate Luv Storys’, to the confused yet adorable hero in ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’, but somehow has been unable to reach the heights that he could have. However, he will still be the quintessential chocolate boy whose return to the silver screen will be awaited with bated breath.
