Nikhat Khan Hegde is the eldest daughter of filmmaker Tahir Hussain and his wife, Zeenat Hussain. She has three siblings, including actors Aamir Khan and Faisal Khan, and a sister, Farhat Khan Datta. While Nikhat started her career as a model and producer, she has ventured into acting in the past few years. She was last seen playing Shah Rukh Khan’s foster mother in his comeback movie, Pathaan (2023).
Wondering why Aamir Khan also tied Rakhi to his sister when it was a popular ritual the other way around. Nikhat recently spoke to HT City and revealed, “Aamir ties us Rakhi too—ki aisa nahin hai ki only he has to protect us; we, too, have to protect him. So, hum unko aur woh humko Rakhi bandhtey hain, which is very sweet.” In the same interview, she also revealed that their other sister, Farhat, is not in India, so she will do rituals on her behalf while missing her badly.
Nikhat told the publication that last year she was traveling, and hence Farhat did it in her place. She stated that they always visit Aamir's house for the celebration with diya and sweets. She added that Raksha Bandhan is one of those festivals that her family celebrates with a lot of joy.
On the work front, Aamir Khan was last seen in 2022’s Laal Singh Chaddha alongside Kareena Kapoor Khan. The movie had an unfortunate fate at the box office but was appreciated largely when it started streaming on OTT. Khan will be next seen starring in the sequel to his superhit, Taare Zameen Par. Titled Sitaare Zameen Par, the sports drama will also feature Genelia Deshmukh.
