My Name Is Khan : Zarina Wahab playing Shahrukh Khan’s mother in MNIK
Zarina Wahab will play mother to Shah Rukh Khan in My Name Is Khan. Aditya Panscholi’s wife received a call from producer-director Karan Johar’s office a few days ago and has agreed to essay the role.
In the film, SRK’s character Rizwan Khan suffers from Asperger’s syndrome a form of autism that impacts social interaction abilities.
It is learnt that a hunt was for an actress who could essay the sensitivity involved in playing mother to such a son. The choice was clear as, of late, Zarina Wahab has not been seen too often on the big screen.
Zarina returned to Mumbai on Friday from the shoot in Kerala. It is learnt that she begins shooting for My Name Is Khan this week.
On the small screen, Zarina features in the Zee soap Maayka and will be also be seen in Sangeeth Sivan’s Bobby-Nana starrer Ek.
Zarina has been acting for over three decades and is best remembered for her roles in films like Chitchor and Gharonda in the ’70s.
