Dubbed Madhuri Dixit’s lookalike, 90s’ star rejected Shah Rukh Khan’s hit, left films: Where is Farheen Prabhakar now?

​The 1990s was a fascinating era for Bollywood. It was a decade that birthed timeless superstars, but it was also a time when a single smash hit could turn an absolute newcomer into an overnight national sensation. One of them was Farheen Prabhakar, aka Farheen Khan, who was among the industry’s most talked-about newcomers. A blockbuster slipped through her fingers. A cricketer won her heart. And just when Bollywood seemed ready to embrace her as its next big star, she quietly walked away from the spotlight. Farheen Prabhakar was called Madhuri Dixit’s lookalike. About Farheen Prabhakar’s career Born as Farheen Khan, she made her Bollywood debut opposite Ronit Roy in 1992 with Deepak Balraj Vij’s Jaan Tere Naam. Their pairing created magic and made them overnight sensations. With her uncanny resemblance to Madhuri Dixit, she instantly caught the attention of filmmakers and audiences alike, and many dubbed her Madhuri’s lookalike. Many believed she was destined for a long innings in Bollywood. Just after her debut, she was offered Shah Rukh Khan’s hit, Baazigar. The actor …

‘Ramzan gift’ comments of Bandi Sanjay in bad taste: Ponnam Prabhakar

 Ponnam Prabhakar | Photo Credit: Backward Classes Welfare Minister Ponnam Prabhakar said Union Minister Bandi Sanjay’s comments of ‘Ramzan gift’ to the Congress after winning two out of the three MLC elections were immature and lack political understanding. Mr. Prabhakar said Mr. Sanjay should remember that he was a Union Minister and such comments reflect his personality and also of the party he represents. The victory was not so huge and this was due to the association of the BJP and the BRS, which did not field any candidates to help the BJP. The Minister further asked BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao and MLA T. Harish Rao to explain whom they voted for in the elections. Both the parties colluded and this political tie-up was being observed by the Telangana society. Stating that victory and defeat in elections are part of the democratic process and the Congress would review it soon, he said the defeat will not have any impact on Telangana politics as of now. Mr. Prabhakar asked the BJP Union Ministers …
