Cezanne Khan played Anurag Basu, the male lead, opposite Shweta Tiwari's Prerna Sharma in the original run of Kasautii Zindagii Kay, which premiered on STAR Plus in 2001 under Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms banner. The pairing became one of the most recognised romantic on-screen duos of Indian television in that decade. He was later replaced in the role, but his portrayal in the early seasons remains the most enduring association of his career.
Cezanne Khan's involvement with feature films has been limited compared with his television work. His career has remained anchored in serial fiction rather than mainstream Hindi cinema.
Like several contemporaries from the daily soap circuit, Cezanne Khan has made appearances on celebrity-based reality and dance-based television formats produced for Hindi general entertainment channels.
The filmography is significant primarily as a record of one of the recognisable male leads of the Balaji Telefilms era of Indian television, a period in the early 2000s when daily serials defined prime-time viewing on satellite channels such as STAR Plus, Zee TV and Sony Entertainment Television. His casting in Kasautii Zindagii Kay contributed to the template of the brooding romantic hero that became a recurring archetype in subsequent Hindi serials.
