This actress fell deeply in love with a married star, and they tied the knot in secret. However, their relationship took a dark turn when he brutally assaulted her.
Bollywood veteran actor, Zeenat Aman is celebrated not only for her exceptional acting talent but also for her vibrant personality in Hindi cinema. Throughout her career, she has often made headlines, not just for her films but also for her tumultuous personal life. Among her relationships, there was one actor who profoundly hurt her—someone who not only broke her heart but also mistreated her. Zeenat Aman was so infatuated with him that she endured his abuse, revealing the depth of her love despite the pain it caused her.
The actor in question is Sanjay Khan, with whom Zeenat Aman was romantically linked in the 1970s. Their relationship became the talk of the town, especially after they first met on the set of Abdullah in 1970, where their chemistry quickly blossomed into love. Despite being married to Zarine Khan at the time, Sanjay pursued a passionate affair with Zeenat, disregarding the consequences. Rumors swirled that their bond deepened to the extent that they secretly married in Jaisalmer in 1978.

While Sanjay Khan consistently denied ever marrying Zeenat Aman, she later confirmed their union in an interview years afterward. According to a report by PeepingMoon, there was an incident where Sanjay attended a party at a hotel, and upon learning of this, Zeenat went to find him. It was during this encounter that Sanjay allegedly pulled her into a room and assaulted her. Zeenat also accused him of being unfaithful during their relationship.
Reports suggest that Zeenat Aman sustained multiple injuries to her face, necessitating a trip to the hospital. Following this traumatic incident, Zeenat Aman came to the painful realization that she had invested her love in the wrong person. Although she chose not to file a complaint against Sanjay Khan, she ultimately decided to end their relationship at that point.
