Zayn Marie Khan is ready to make her mark in the Telugu film industry. She joins the cast of Adivi Sesh’s Dacoit, which is scheduled to be released in theatres on April 10. The romantic action drama casts the budding actress in the role of a fierce police officer.
To celebrate her birthday (March 21), the makers unveiled her first-look poster. The image captures Zayn in a striking khaki uniform. She is playing a character that matters in a film co-starring her Bollywood colleagues, Anurag Kashyap and Atul Kulkarni.
Who is Zayn?
Zayn is the daughter of acclaimed director Mansoor Ali Khan. Her father gave Indian cinema classics like Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak and Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander. She is also the niece of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan. Her family ties extend to actor Imran Khan and Aamir’s children, Junaid and Ira Khan. Before her Telugu debut, Zayn built a portfolio in Hindi cinema and digital spaces. She made her debut in the 2020 Netflix thriller Mrs. Serial Killer. Since then, she has appeared in notable projects like Monica, O My Darling and Made in Heaven Season 2. Her experience across diverse roles has prepared her for this challenging action role.
Aamir Khan’s message
The Dangal and Sitaare Zameen Par actor shared a heartfelt message of support for his niece. He wished Zayn and the entire team of Dacoit the very best. “Wishing Zayn and the team of Dacoit all the very best. Love, A,” the superstar wrote.
Dacoit to tell an emotional story
Adivi Sesh, who plays an ex-convict who escapes jail, has stated that Dacoit is not an “out-and-out action movie”. It is a love story between two estranged former lovers. Described as a deep film, its script was written over a year.
