Veteran actor Mushtaq Khan, who left an indelible mark on Indian cinema with his brilliant performances in iconic films like 'Gadar', 'Welcome', 'Aashiqui', and 'Mujhse Dosti Karoge', has passed away at the age of 75. He had been battling cancer for the last few years, and after a recent relapse, he breathed his last following treatment in a Mumbai hospital. His demise has left the film fraternity and his family in deep grief.
While Mushtaq always kept the audience entertained with his impeccable comic timing and supporting roles, his personal life remained simple and away from the glitz and glamour. Following his passing, fans have been curious to know about his family background and what his children do for a living.
Meet Mushtaq Khan's Wife and Children
