Raza Murad speaks on Zeenat Aman’s past and allegations involving Sanjay Khan

Veteran actor Raza Murad has opened up about the personal life and early struggles of his cousin, actor Zeenat Aman. In a recent interview, Murad discussed the actress's upbringing following her parents' separation, noting that the instability of a broken home and the resulting loneliness had a significant impact on her formative years. He recalled that Aman, affectionately known as 'Babbushah', lived separately with each parent after their divorce and often felt isolated while attending a convent school in Panchgani.Murad also addressed the widely reported allegations of a violent confrontation between Aman and actor Sanjay Khan, which have long been linked to a permanent injury to the actress's right eye. Describing the event, Murad stated that the incident was a "violent incident, because of which her eye was affected." While reflecting on the complexities of relationships involving married individuals, he maintained a firm stance against domestic violence, stating, "Whatever happened was wrong. You have no right to raise your hand against a woman."The alleged assault reportedly occurred at a Mumbai hotel following a trip from Lonavala. Reports suggest that Aman and Khan were married in 1978 while Khan was already married to Zarine Khan. Although Aman has previously spoken about dealing with physical abuse and the subsequent impact on her vision, she has not always named the perpetrator. In a past appearance on 'Rendezvous with Simi Garewal', she explained that she coped with the trauma by attempting to obliterate the memories from her mind.Sanjay Khan has consistently denied these allegations. In discussions regarding his autobiography, 'The Best Mistakes of My Life', Khan has disputed the narratives surrounding the incident, characterising the accounts as one-sided. Despite the conflicting versions of history, the discourse surrounding the veteran actress's experiences continues to draw attention, highlighting the lasting personal and physical repercussions of her past struggles.
