Jibraan Khan, the dynamic newcomer who burst onto the scene with Ishq Vishk Rebound (2024), is making heads turn with his amazing dancing and acting chops, not to mention his striking good looks. He’s living a dream he never wants to wake up from. Before his adult debut, Jibraan starred in films like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta (2001), and Rishtey (2002) as a child actor. He also gained invaluable experience as an assistant director on Brahmastra (2022), calling it the ultimate film school. Working alongside stars like Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna Akkineni, and Mouni Roy was an eye-opener. Their professionalism left a lasting mark on me," Jibraan recalls fondly. “The first shot was picturised on Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. It was the scene where Ranbir was stopping the fire and Alia was hugging him. I gave the clap’ for it,” he says with pride.
