Biography
Zeenat Aman (born Zeenat Amanullah Khan; November 19, 1951) is an Indian actress and former model often cited as the original sex symbol of Bollywood, a label that she doesn't feel particularly positive towards. One of the most prominent and highly-paid actresses of 1970s Bollywood, she has received three Filmfare Award nominations. Apart from her on-screen career, Aman has also received a lot of publicity from her highly troubled personal life, including abuse at the hands of her former husband and fellow actor Sanjay Khan.
