Pray to Allah to accept my repentence, Says actress Sana Khan as she ends her film career

Actress Sana Khan, who shot to popularity in the Tamil film industry with her debut film Silambattam opposite Simbu, has bid good bye to the world of show biz.

In a lengthy note that she wrote to the public and those in the film industry, Sana Khan, who has now turned deeply religious and spiritual, said, “In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, Brothers and sisters! Today, I am talking to you standing at a crucial juncture of my life. I have been living the showbiz(film industry) life for years and during this time, I have been blessed with all kinds fo fame, honour and wealth from my fans for which I am grateful to them.

“But for a few days now, I have been possessed of the realisation that: Is the real purpose of man’s coming into this world only to chase wealth and fame?

“Isn’t it a part of his/her duty to spend his/her life in the service of those who are needy and helpless? Shouldn’t a person think that he/she could die at any moment? And what will happen to him after he/she is no more?

“I have been searching for answers to these two questions for a long period of time, especially the second question as to what will happen to me after my death?

“When I searched for the answer to the this question in my religion, I realised that this life in the world is actually for the betterment of life after death. And it will be better if the slave lives according to the comman of his Creator, and does not make wealth and fame his only goal; rather, he/she should avoid sinful life and serve humanity, and follow the path shown by his/her Creator. Therefore, I declare today that from today onwards, I have resolved to to say goodbye to my showbiz lifestyle forever and serve humanity and follow the orders of my Creator.

“All brothers and sisters are requested to pray for me to Allah to accept my repentence and grant me the true ability to live in accordance with my determination of spending my life following the commandments of my Creator and in the service of humanity, and grant me perseverance in it.

‘Finally, all brothers and sisters are requested to not consult me with regard to any showbiz work henceforth. Thank you very much, Sana Khan.”

Sana Khan, who has acted in around 15 films in five languages, shot to popularity with her song ‘Vachikava unna mattum nenjukulla’ in the film Silambattam. From there on, she was a recognisable face in the Tamil film industry.
