It is true that Fardeen Khan is the best looking bloke in, well, Bollywood. He is perhaps from his generation (Abhishek Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Aftab Shivdasani, Tusshar Kapoor etc., etc.,) not only the best looking of the lot, but also perhaps one of the most educated and flamboyant of the lot. Yet, in front of the camera, he lacked the very glitz.
Fardeen Khan was born in India but has a very "in-between" accent because he has studied abroad a lot. A graduate (Business Management Degree) from the University of Massachusetts, USA, Fardeen Khan has a non-Indian accent which clearly comes across on the big screen. He also has very western looks which, in the past has been a negative point for a lot of actors because they can't easily fit into the stereotype, typical Indian male roles.
Fardeen restrategized and succeeded. He may not be the high-profile triangle of Shah Rukh, Aamir and Salman and he is just not one more Khan who has amazed the Bollywood.
The attraction he gets is not inconvenient to his privacy but he enjoys every bit of it. Surprising he also doesn’t nurse a grudge on the media. That's quite notable and will help he climbing the opinion polls. On the whole, he is contented the way his life is shaping and feels much richer person.
