Early life

Khan was born in Oxnard, California. He spent his childhood between Pakistan and the United States, eventually settling in the suburbs of Philadelphia. After high school, Khan ended up attending Pennsylvania State University completing a B.S. in finance. He worked for a Fortune 500 company in the banking industry, though it would only last a few years. Khan ultimately left his stable job to pursue acting in New York City.

Independent work

The next few years were spent attending the Actors Studio Drama School at Pace University, completing an MFA in acting. During this time, he worked in numerous plays and independent films, building his experience. Khan established a reputation for doing whatever it took to immerse himself in a character. For his thesis play Hello Out There, he drove to a ghost town in Texas to do research, sleeping overnight in the haunted jail by himself. For the short film Flutter, Khan spent a month getting into the physiological state to play a young cancer patient, including losing 25 pounds and shaving his head and eyebrows. He also ventured into some experimental work by making his own series of short films, writing characters for himself while he was auditioning for roles. Among them was a young sadistic Oscar Wilde in Importance of Earnest as well as a deluded boxer Ibby in Say It Ain't So.

Moor

His break occurred on a trip to Pakistan where he secured the lead role in the international feature film Moor, directed by Jami. He spent a month in a village in Balochistan, observing the behaviors of local Pathans to find the physicality of his character, and learning to speak Urdu in their dialect. The film was hailed as one of the most critically acclaimed features in Pakistan, with Newsline Magazine claiming it as one of the best films Pakistan has ever made. The film was selected as the Pakistani entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards. It was in contention as one of the dark horse contenders but didn't receive a nomination. He shared the screen with established actors Hameed Sheikh and Samiyah Mumtaz. It would be his debut in the Pakistani Film Industry.
