Now, the late actor’s younger sister Saeeda Khan passed away due to prolonged illness on September 24. Saeeda Khan was married to Iqbal Khan, who was the son of renowned producer Mehboob Khan. The latter is known for producing popular films including ‘Andaz’, ‘Mother India’ and others.
According to a report in Pinkvilla, Saeeda Khan was suffering from a prolonged illness and was not keeping well for some time. She was known for her compassion and kind nature and is survived by her son Saqib and daughter Ilham. Saeeda Khan’s husband Mehboob Khan passed away in 2018.
