Zarine Khan Passes Away At 81” The Bollywood industry is in deep mourning following the demise of Zarine Khan (Zarin Katrak) — wife of veteran actor and filmmaker Sanjay Khan and mother of actor Zayed Khan, interior designer Sussanne Khan, jewelry designer Farah Khan Ali, and entrepreneur Simone Arora. Zarine Khan passed away peacefully in Mumbai at the age of 81, surrounded by her family members.
A respected figure in Mumbai’s elite social circle, Zarine Khan was known not only as the matriarch of the Khan family but also as a woman of immense grace, resilience, and talent. Her presence at film industry events, family functions, and high-profile gatherings reflected her elegance and enduring charm.
A Life Full of Strength and Inspiration
Born as Zarin Katrak, she married Sanjay Khan in 1966, and the couple built one of Bollywood’s most influential and respected families. Zarine’s strength became evident during the tragic Sword of Tipu Sultan studio fire in 1990, when her husband sustained severe burn injuries. Throughout his long recovery, Zarine remained his constant pillar of support — a testament to her courage and devotion.
Her daughters, Sussanne Khan and Farah Khan Ali, have often credited their mother as their biggest source of inspiration. They describe her as a woman with impeccable taste, unshakeable moral values, and a strong belief in independence and hard work — qualities that shaped their careers in design and jewelry.
A Creative Force Beyond the Silver Screen
Beyond being a star wife and mother, Zarine Khan was also an accomplished interior designer and author. She co-designed the Khan family’s palatial residence, often featured in lifestyle magazines for its rich aesthetic and classic charm. She also penned a book titled “Family Secrets: The Khan Family Cookbook”, which celebrated the culinary legacy and heritage of the Khan household.
Her refined sense of design and her love for Indian culture reflected in every project she touched — from home interiors to her writing. In recent years, she appeared in her daughter Farah Khan’s vlog, where fans admired her warmth and humility.
Remembered Fondly by Bollywood
Celebrities, friends, and fans have been pouring in heartfelt tributes on social media, remembering Zarine Khan for her elegance, compassion, and nurturing spirit. Many have recalled her as a woman who balanced fame and family with grace and dignity.
