Zaheeda Hussain (born 9 October 1944), commonly known by her mononym Zaheeda, is a former Indian actress, who worked in Hindi films.
She is best known for her films Anokhi Raat (1968), Prem Pujari (1970), and Gambler (1971).
Born in Mumbai, she is daughter of Akhtar Hussain, who was film producer and son of director Jaddanbai.
Her aunt was Bollywood actress Nargis Dutt, and her uncle was character actor Anwar Hussain.
In 1971, she famously turned down the role of playing Jasbir/Janice in Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971) after being offered it by Dev Anand, as she found it too bold of a role - the film turned to be a cult hit.
After this, a majority of her later films flopped, and Zaheeda eventually retired the film industry.
Zaheeda briefly returned to the silver screen in a DD1 serial Aamrapali (TV serial) in 2002.
