Shakib Khan, commonly known as SK, was born on March 28, 1979, and is a prominent Bangladeshi actor, producer, businessman, occasional singer, film organizer, and media personality. His influence extends across Bengali cinema, both in Bangladesh and West Bengal, earning him a reputation as one of the most successful and influential figures in the industry.
Over the span of two decades, Khan has played a pivotal role in shaping the contemporary film industry in Dhallywood. He currently holds the title of the highest-paid actor in Bangladesh. Despite a relatively modest start with his debut in the 1999 film “Ananta Bhalobasha,” it wasn’t until the success of “Priya Amar Priya” in 2008 that Khan gained widespread fame, setting box office records and solidifying his position as a leading actor.
Throughout his career, Khan has showcased his versatility by excelling in various genres, including romantic films like “Amar Praner Swami” (2007), drama films like “Shuva” (2006), and action-romantic films like “Don Number One” (2012). He has also ventured into producing films, with notable works such as “Hero: The Superstar” (2014) and “Password” (2019).
Notably, Khan faced both acclaim and controversy for his role in “Rajneeti” (2017), a political thriller that delved into the politics of Bangladesh. The film created a stir when it was revealed that a phone number used in the film belonged to a rickshaw driver, leading to a legal dispute.
In 2019, Khan made history by becoming the highest-paid entertainer in Bangladesh, earning Tk. 50 lakh for the film “Nolok.” His success continued with films like “Swatta” and “Nabab” in 2017, earning him accolades and awards, including the National Film Awards.
Khan’s career reached new heights with the tragic romance “Priyotoma” (2023), which broke box office records and became the highest-grossing Bangladeshi film of all time. The film’s success reaffirmed Khan’s stardom and marked a significant milestone in his career.
Beyond his accomplishments in the film industry, Khan has been involved in high-profile relationships, attracting nationwide attention and criticism. His personal life has been a subject of public interest, especially his relationships with actresses Apu Biswas and Shobnom Bubly.
Shakib Khan’s journey into the film industry began in 1998 when he accepted an offer to act in the romantic project “Sobai to Shukhi Hote Chay.” Despite initial setbacks, Khan’s career took off when he debuted in “Ananta Bhalobasha” (1999), directed by Sohanur Rahman Sohan. His stage name, “Shakib Khan,” was given to him by Sohanur Rahman Sohan.
From his early days as a science student with dreams of becoming a doctor or engineer, Khan transitioned into the world of cinema. Despite discontinuing his formal education after achieving success in films, Khan’s impact on the Bangladeshi film industry remains undeniable.
