Personal life

Firoz Khan is married to Kashmira. The couple has three children – a son and two daughters. His son, Jibran Khan is also an actor who played the role of Dhruva in Vishnu Puran and played the role of Krishna in Mahabharat.[2][verification needed]

Due to the similarity with the name of actor Feroz Khan, he changed his name to Arjun professionally, with suggestions from B. R. Chopra and Rahi Masoom Raza, the director and the writer of Mahabharat respectively.[3]
