Renowned television and OTT actress Sanjeeda Shaikh celebrates her 40th birthday today, December 20, 2024. Born on this day in 1984 in Kuwait to a Muslim family, Sanjeeda grew up in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, and has since become a celebrated name in Indian entertainment.
Sanjeeda began her acting journey in 2003 with small roles and rose to fame as the lead in the 2005 TV series Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka. Her versatility shone further in 2007 with a vamp role in Kayamath. That same year, she won the reality dance show Nach Baliye 3 alongside her then-husband, Aamir Ali, marking a high point in her personal and professional life.
However, Sanjeeda’s love story took a different turn. After marrying Aamir Ali in 2012, the couple welcomed their daughter Ayra through surrogacy in 2018. Unfortunately, their relationship ended in 2022 with an amicable divorce, and Sanjeeda emerged as a single mother, raising her daughter on her own.
