He’s always been the baby of the film industry and his family. But now Zayed Khan promises a new, power-packed version of himself at least on screen.

“I don’t think I was spoilt. I was sent to boarding school when I was 11. That changed my whole perspective to life,” Zayed, who is the son of Sanjay Khan and nephew of Feroze Khan, said in an interview.

“I’ve always been confident about myself. My goals are very focused and real. I’ve really avoided all negativity. I just wanted to be one of the best, and that’s what I’m working towards.” Continue reading ‘I don’t think I was spoilt: Zayed Khan’

“I was bed-ridden for months because of a slipped-disc. I had no choice. But yes, I’m guilty. ‘Speed’ did get delayed because of me. Fortunately, it’s now complete,” explains the Khan.

He adds, “Perhaps, I chose ‘Cash’ (director Anubahv Sinha) and ‘Speed’ because they required me to exert myself physically. After being confined to bed, I wanted to prove that I was physically fit as I used to be before the bad back.” Continue reading ‘‘I am a pampered baby’’
