Jiah khan had an interesting start to her career by playing a sexy siren in her first movie that too opposite Amitabh bachchan.

Jiah Khan was born in the year 1987 in New York and brought up in London. She has been brought up single-handedly by her mother Rabia, who is originally from Lucknow.Besides acting, Jiah has a passion for singing and has had formal training in classical opera. She knows as many as five different forms of dancing. Even as a 16-yr-old girl, Jiah began dabbling with music and almost came to the point of releasing an album. She knows how to play the piano and she recorded six pop numbers before she ran out of finance. Not just this, Jiah has been consistently learning different styles of dancing for the last nine years. Today she knows belly dancing, salsa, lambada, samba and Kathak.

But acting, Jiah insists, is her first love. Jiah says that she always knew in her mind that she would be an actress someday. She had been trying to get her foot in the Bollywood door for quite some years.
Initially, she was almost finalized for a Mahesh Bhatt film, but was replaced at the eleventh hour. Jiah was Mahesh Bhatt's first choice for 'Tumsa Nahin Dekha', which was eventually done by Dia Mirza. At that time, she had a brief relationship with Emraan Hashmi.
Bhatt is believed to have discovered Jiah when he was invited to tea in London by her mother. Bhatt is quoted as saying of Jiah, "She has real talent and a powerful screen presence. She is quick to learn and she's not just flirting with a career in the movies. She wants to make it to the top of the heap."
There have also been rumours that Jiah Khan is the daughter of filmmaker Tahir Hussain, which makes her Aamir Khan's stepsister. Tahir Hussain does not deny that he shares a close friendship with Jiah's mother. "Rabiya is married to a man from Pakistan. She is a very close friend of mine, but I was never married to her. Jiah is not my daughter," he says. Jiah, on her part, was terribly upset when questioned about her parentage and she is making no bones about her resentment as being referred to as Aamir's step-sister.
