Early life and background
Faisal Khan was born on 30 January 1999 in Mumbai, Maharashtra. He grew up in the city that remains his hometown and attended Meera Academy School in Ghatkopar. Born into a family with modest means—his father worked as an auto-rickshaw driver—Faisal developed early interests in dance and martial arts that would shape his career.

Career
Faisal’s first public break came through dance. In 2012 he won the reality television competition Dance India Dance Li’l Masters 2, a victory that brought him national recognition and prize money. His skills as a performer and his screen presence led to television roles, most notably the part of the young Maharana Pratap in the historical series Bharat Ka Veer Putra – Maharana Pratap. That performance earned him multiple awards for Best Child Actor and helped establish him as a credible young actor in Indian television.

Alongside television, Faisal has worked in film and other onscreen formats. His first Marathi film credit is Prem Kahani (2016). He has also performed in other television serials, including a role as Chandragupta Maurya, and appeared as the young Narendra Modi in the web series Modi – Journey of a Common Man (2019). Faisal has continued to showcase his dancing through participation and wins in televised dance competitions; he and partner Vaishnavi Patil won Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Reloaded season 8 in 2015. He has given special dance performances at high-profile events such as the grand premiere of Kaun Banega Crorepati season eight.

Awards and recognition
Faisal’s early career includes several notable awards. His win on Dance India Dance Li’l Masters 2 brought him public recognition in 2012. He later received awards for his portrayal of the young Maharana Pratap, including industry honors such as the Indian Telly Award and the Indian Television Academy Award for Best Child Actor (male). He was also presented with a Zee Rishtey Award linked to his dance show appearance and received an appreciation award for contributions to the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan in 2017.

Artistry and influences
Dance remains a defining facet of Faisal’s public profile. He trained under choreographer Shrikanth Ahire and has maintained a close professional rapport with choreographer Geeta Kapur. Beyond dance, he enjoys gymming, swimming and photography. His on-screen preferences and inspirations include actors such as Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan, and he has cited Om Shanti Om as the first film he watched in a theatre.

Public profile
Faisal’s personal life has periodically been part of his public image. He is unmarried and has been linked publicly with Muskaan Kataria. He follows a non-vegetarian diet and is identified as Muslim. Physically, reports list him at approximately 1.65 meters (5 feet 5 inches) tall and about 52 kilograms in weight, with dark brown eyes and black hair. He lists hobbies that align with his performance career and maintains a noted interest in fitness.

Personal anecdotes and outreach
Faisal’s work on television has had an emotional impact on audience members. One documented instance recounts a fan who credited a performance in Maharana Pratap with changing her outlook on life; Faisal later supported her as she published a book about her experience. During his schooling years, the demands of shooting required on-set tutoring while he was completing tenth grade.

Latest updates
In addition to his television and film projects, Faisal has continued to participate in dance television formats and has taken on roles in web and historical series. His move into Marathi cinema and portrayal of young political and historical figures demonstrate his range as both an actor and dancer.
