Emraan Anwar Hashmi (Urdu: عمران ہاشمی; born 24 March 1979 in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India), is a Filmfare Award-nominated Indian actor.
Early life
Hashmi was born to Anwar Hashmi and Maherahh Hashmi. His father is a Muslim while his mother a Roman Catholic.[1] After briefly changing his first name to Farhan, he decided to keep his original name.[1] He studied graphics and animation from Sydenham College in Mumbai.[2]
Career
Hashmi made his film debut in 2003 with the film, Footpath, which did not do well at the box office.[2] He and co-star Mallika Sherawat shot to fame with the thriller, Murder (2004), which went on to become a super hit at the box office.[3] In 2005, he appeared in several films such as Zeher, Aashiq Banaya Apne and Kalyug,[4] which did moderately well at the box office.[5] In 2006, his film, Gangster was a semi-hit,[6] while Aksar and The Killer were flops. In 2007, Hashmi had three back to back releases, while Good Boy Bad Boy and The Train both failed at the box office, the big budgeted, Awarapan did moderately well. In 2008, Hashmi's first release, Jannat had a 100% opening making it a critical and commercial success.[7][8] His first release in 2009, Raaz - The Mystery Continues, opened well and became the first box office success of the year.[9] His second film of the year, Tum Mile, opened to mixed reviews and was rated a box office failure.[10] In 2010, he appeared in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, which opened to positive reviews and was declared a hit at the box office.[11][12]
Personal life
Hashmi graduated from Sydenham College in Mumbai, India. Pooja Bhatt, an actress turned director, is his cousin, while Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt are his uncles. They are both producers, while the former is also a writer and director. Hashmi married his long time girl friend, Parveen Shahani in December 2006.[13] He became father to a baby boy on 4 February 2010 and named him Ayaan.[14]
Controversies
In July 2009, Hashmi claimed that a housing society in Mumbai's upmarket Pali Hill locality refused to grant him permission to buy an apartment because he is a Muslim. The housing society rejected the allegations and in turn accused Hashmi and his family of intimidatory behavior.[15] Hashmi's allegations were condemned by other Muslim actors in Bollywood, especially Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan.[16] while the Indian-Islamic Cultural Center accused Hashmi of spurring communal tensions in India.[17]
On 10 August 2009, Hashmi backtracked from his accusation and said that the housing society has not discriminated against him and termed the incident as a "miscommunication".[18]
