The Canadian actress and model Armeena Rana Khan is of Pakistani descent and works in film and television. She is one of the most well-known actresses in Pakistan and has been nominated for a Lux Style Award, a Hum Award, and a Nigar Award. Khan became well-known in the Urdu entertainment sector thanks to the majority of the incredibly successful television series in which she has starred. She was listed among the “50 Sexiest Asian Women” by Eastern Eye, and the Pakistan Achievement Awards presented her with the Women Empowerment Award the following year. Khan, who was raised in Manchester and was born in Toronto to Pakistani parents, has a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Manchester.
After a few months of working as a model, Khan made her acting debut in the British short film Writhe, which was shown at the Cannes Film Festival, making Khan the first actress from Pakistan to do so. She gained notoriety when she played a villain in the romantic television serial Muhabbat Ab Nahi Hugi, which led to a nomination for “Best Villain” at the Hum Awards. She then received a great deal of praise from the critics for her leading parts in the romantic television programs Ishq Parast and Karb. In the movie and television versions of the book Bin Roye Ansoo, she portrayed the girl next door; the former received her a nomination for the Lux Style Award for Best Supporting Actress.
She made a name for herself in Urdu cinema by playing the female lead in the military drama Yalghaar and the romantic comedy Janaan, two of Pakistan’s all-time highest-grossing movies. Khan subsequently garnered acclaim for her performances as a lady involved in a love triangle in Rasm E Duniya and as a distressed wife in the social drama Daldal, both of which were produced by Hum TV. She has been playing Tara in the Hum TV series Mohabbatein Chahatein. Khan pursued modeling before switching to acting.
She worked for numerous companies and goods at this time, such as Nishat Linen, Faysal Bank, and Sprite. She became well-known as a model in Pakistan and Britain, and she quickly started getting offers for movie roles. In the British short film “Writhe,” Khan played the part of a serial killer in his debut acting performance. The movie was chosen for the Cannes Film Festival. Khan asserted that she walked the Cannes red carpet as the first Pakistani actress. She later made an appearance in Stranger Within Me, another short film that was shown at Cannes. In the 2013 ARY Digital television comedy Happily Married, Khan co-starred with Azfar Rehman.
Shab-e-Arzu ka Alam, in which Khan co-stars with Mohib Mirza in the lead role, was transmitted in the same year and marked the beginning of Khan’s broadcasting career as a serious actor. But she had a breakthrough with the television program Muhabbat Ab Nahi Hugi, for which she was also nominated for a Hum Award. She then went on to continue with more TV series, playing the lead role alongside Adnan Siddiqui in Ishq Parast and Karb. In 2013’s Huff! It’s Too Much, Khan made her Bollywood debut in a leading role.
