BACKGROUND
Khan is the son of Anil Pal, a Bengali-American and Nuzhat Khan. Anil, who works as a Director of Operations Engineering at Netflix in Silicon Valley, was a classmate of director Mansoor Khan, Nuzhat's brother, at IIT Bombay. Anil and Nuzhat married but divorced when Imran was one and a half years old. He grew up with the surname Khan as his mother brought him up in India. However, he moved to live with his father in California, to finish high school. He then trained in film making in Los Angeles. He is also the nephew of actor Aamir Khan, director Mansoor Khan and the grandson of Nasir Hussain who was a noted director and producer. While living in India, he studied at Bombay Scottish School, Mahim in Mumbai, and for a brief period in Bangalore.


CHILD ARTIST
Khan made appearances as a child artist in his uncle Aamir's films Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988) and Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander (1992). Both times he played the role of a young Aamir Khan. He aspired to be a director, as that was his original plan before he entered Bollywood as an actor. Khan joined Kishore Namit Kapoor's Acting Institute in Mumbai.


BREAKTHROUGH (2008)

Khan made his debut as a lead actor in the 2008 film Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, produced by Aamir Khan and Mansoor Khan and co-starring Genelia D'Souza. The film received rave reviews from critics and proved to be one of the biggest hits of the year. Khan was furthermore nominated for Best Male Debut at the 54th Filmfare awards and won it along with Farhan Akhtar. His next movie was Kidnap with Sanjay Dutt and Minissha Lamba where he played a negative role. The movie flopped at the box office, attributed by critics to its poorly executed direction.

Khan is set to make his next appearance in the action movie Luck with Shruti Haasan and Sanjay Dutt.[2] His forthcoming movie Delhi Belly is an English language comedy which is being produced by Aamir Khan as well.
