Zaheeda Hussain (born 9 October 1944), commonly known by her mononym Zaheeda, is an Indian former actress. Born in Mumbai, she is daughter of Akhtar Hussain, who was fa ilm producer and the son of director Jaddanbai.[1] Her aunt was actress Nargis Dutt, and her uncle was character actor Anwar Hussain.
Zaheeda is best known for appearing in films such as Anokhi Raat (1968), Gambler (1971), and Prem Pujari (1970). She was originally offered by Dev Anand to appear as Jasbir/Janice in the cult-film Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971), however she turned it down as she found it too bold of a role.[2] After this, a majority of her later films flopped, leading her to eventually retire the film industry.[3]
