Actor Shariq Hassan Biography
Shariq Hassan was born on 7 December 1994 in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Hassan is the son of actors Riyaz Khan and Uma Riyaz Khan. On August 8, 2024, Shariq married his long-time girlfriend, Maria Jennifer, in a traditional Christian wedding.
He went to A V Meiyappan Matriculation Higher Secondary School, where he finished his schooling up to 12th grade before graduating from high school.
After their wedding in August, Shariq and Maria gave an interview to the Galatta Tamil channel, where they talked about how they first met and fell in love. Shariq shared that he spent four years in Saligram pursuing opportunities in cinema.

Later, he went to ECR, hoping to see his parents. While at the gym there, he met Maria for the first time. He found it funny that she didn’t notice him at first, and he thought to himself that she seemed like someone who wasn’t very important.
Shariq decided he wanted to marry Maria after their first meeting, so he started going to the gym every day to see her again. One day, he bumped into her at a restaurant, and that’s when they began talking.
Maria shared that she never considered remarriage after her first marriage ended badly. Her main focus was on her daughter, Zara, and making sure she was happy.
At the gym, Shariq was friendly with everyone, not just her, so Maria thought he was just being nice to everyone. When others mentioned Shariq to her, she would refer to him as a little boy or a brother.
However, she eventually found herself drawn to him, especially when he surprised her with a sketch.
Maria said that it was just her and her daughter, Zara, for a long time, and she wasn’t sure if they were missing anything. However, after Shariq entered her life, she realized what had been missing.
She felt that Zara needed a father, and she believed Shariq was the right person for that role. In the interview, Maria mentioned that Zara played a big part in their love story.
