Sharing a photograph of Azlan with her, Khan wrote, “Exactly 10 years ago my life changed. I was a 24-year-old girl with a baby in my arms celebrating my 25th birthday. These 10 years feel like a 1,000 with experiences worth a lifetime. I became a mother, I became an actor! there was loss and separation, I witnessed success and fame. I fell in love. I lost hope at times and mustered up courage most of the time. I realised some of my dreams.. And had to let some go. And on this journey, I had all of you with me. Every step of the way. I wish I could write it all.. maybe one day I will. I am so grateful for everything – all of it.”

“We are nothing without the people who have stood by us – you all are the wind beneath my wings. I thank you with all my heart and soul. I promise you all that I will pay it forward in every way I possibly can. InshAllah,” she added.

About Azlan she wrote, “As I write this, here I am a 35 year old woman with a 10 year old not so baby boy, still wrapped in my arms. Thank you for the birthday wishes.. overwhelmed and overjoyed. Grateful. So grateful.”

Khan shares son Azlan, who was born in 2009, with former husband Ali Askari. The couple divorced in 2015 and since then, she is raising him on her own.
