He decided against a run, however, and Habibun Nahar, Khaleque's wife, was elected unopposed.[3]
Khan sought the Awami League nomination for the seat in the December 2018 general election, but the party gave the nod to the incumbent.[4][5]

Khan went on to perform in films Paharadar, Biyer Phul, Narir Mon, Koshto, and Abujh Bou, among others.
Khan wed actress Jona, his co-star in the 2002 film Hridoyer Bashi, but the marriage did not last long.[6]
