Sussanne Khan is a leading interior designer in Mumbai. She was married to Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan for 14 long years. However, they got divorced in the year 2014. They are parents to two sons namely Hridhaan and Hrehaan. Sussanne is the daughter of the actor, director and producer Sanjay Khan. She appears to be a strong and independent woman through her social media handles. Apart from having an influential Bollywood family and growing up around movies, she didn’t pursue a career in Bollywood.
When asked on BFFs with Vogue, which is set to air on Colors Infinity, as to why she didn’t enter the Bollywood industry, Sussanne said, “Since I was 5, I was bitten by the bug of designing. It was all around me in my home. I used to have architectural digest magazines. My mum used to be an interior designer in those days. I was 5 years old when I used to go with her on sites and I fell in love with the world of color and design. I was obsessed with that world. I wanted to be a part of that world. Acting is equally a tough job but it didn’t attract me.
She further added, “I can’t do something if it doesn’t attract me 100%. I am all in or nothing. There was no question of not going in designing. That’s when I explored, studied, went to LA and came back when I met a superstar boy who was not a superstar at that time, but was one in my eyes when I met him. But before this I didn’t realize I didn’t have any interest in the film world. But destiny gets me back that way. I love the films and the industry, but I am so happy being where I am in my profession.” She and Hrithik continue to remain friends and spend time together.
