One has indeed said that love for God will make you forget everything. This is something that Bollywood has been familiar with for a while now.

It is quite the obvious reason to start the list with Sana Khan. On October 8 of this year, the actress announced to Instagram that she has decided to leave money and fame far behind and follow the path which Allah has set for her. She wrote a complete post in Urdu, Hindi, and English for all of her followers to understand. She spoke about how she wanted to ‘serve humanity’ and follow the orders of her creator, ‘Allah,’ and quit Bollywood life for good now.

 

She even erased all her pictures from the past and glamour to make a final statement that she is done with that life now. It was not all; the biggest shock for the fans came along when her wedding pictures surfaced online on 22 November. She married Gujarat based Mufti Anas in an intimate ceremony with her friends and family.

She wrote on Instagram that they loved each other for the sake of Allah and also changed her name to Sayied Sana Khan two days after the marriage.

 

Sofia Hayat:

back in 2016, when Sofia announced that she was about to shed her ’sexy image’ and take up the path of a nun, fans were shocked around the world, as this was not what they might have imagined in a lifetime. The model was infamous in the glamour world for posting bold pictures. When she took the path of spirituality, she not only embraced it but also changed her name to Gaia Mother Sofia and told the world that she was the incarnation of Quan Yin, Female Christ, Mary, and Goddess Isis.

 

She also said that she was the Mother and daughter of God of the Holy Trinity and wanted to move on the path of truth. But this did not remain a long show as the model returned to her glamourous self within a few months.

 

She got all furious when people compared her to Sana Khan. To which she replied that wearing clothes does not mean that she is a nun or not. She has not got physical for three years now and still is Mother Sofia no matter what clothes she wears.
