Shura Khan: Biography, Marriage and Verified Facts
Shura Khan is an Indian make-up artist who married actor and producer Arbaaz Khan on 24 December 2023 in a private nikah ceremony in Mumbai. She works behind the camera rather than in front of it, and — unlike most people written about on entertainment sites — very little about her personal background has ever been confirmed by an established news organisation.
That gap matters, because a great deal of specific-sounding detail about her circulates online without a credible source behind it. This page separates what major publications actually reported from what is unverified.

Who is Shura Khan?
Shura Khan is a professional make-up artist working in the Indian film and fashion industry. Reporting on her marriage consistently described her by that profession, and it is the one biographical fact about her that established outlets have stated plainly.
She became publicly known in December 2023 through her marriage to Arbaaz Khan, an actor and producer and the brother of Salman Khan. Before that she had no significant public profile, which is the main reason so little verified information about her exists.
The December 2023 marriage to Arbaaz Khan
The couple married on Sunday 24 December 2023 in an intimate nikah ceremony held at the Mumbai residence of Arpita Khan Sharma, Arbaaz Khan’s sister. Shura Khan wore a pastel hijab for the ceremony. It was Arbaaz Khan’s second marriage; he was previously married to Malaika Arora.
Guests reported in coverage of the ceremony included:
| Guest | Relationship |
|---|---|
| Salim Khan and Salma Khan | Arbaaz Khan’s parents |
| Arpita Khan Sharma | Sister; ceremony host |
| Raveena Tandon | Actor; attended with daughter Rasha |
| Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia Deshmukh | Actors |
| Riddhima Pandit | Actor |
What is verified, and what is only circulating
Many pages state a precise date of birth for Shura Khan — most commonly 18 January 1990 — along with a height, an education history and a net worth figure. We could not trace any of these to an established news organisation, an official statement or a first-party interview.
The sites carrying those details are biography-aggregator pages, and they do not agree with one another: some give her age as 35, others as 36, for the same reference year. Where sources conflict and none is authoritative, the honest position is that the information is unconfirmed.
Accordingly, this page does not state her age, date of birth, height, education or net worth as fact. If a credible source publishes them, this page will be updated and the change noted below.
Career as a make-up artist

Sources and methodology
This page relies on contemporaneous reporting of the December 2023 wedding by established outlets, including ThePrint, Business Today and Gulf News. Claims that could be traced only to biography-aggregator sites were excluded rather than repeated.
Our rule for this page: a personal detail is stated as fact only if an established news organisation, an official statement or a first-party interview supports it. Everything else is labelled unverified or left out.
