She later began acting when the Play Art Photo Tone Company of Lahore approached her for a role in their movie Raja Gopichand. She played the role of the mother of the title character. Later she worked for a Karachi based film company, in Insaan ya Shaitan.
Her first marriage was to a Gujarati Hindu, Bachi Babu Khatri, who had to convert to Islam to marry her. They had a son, Akhtar Hussain, who was an actor. I have no details of him at all.
Her second marriage was with harmonium master Ustaad Irshad Meer Khan, a frequent collaborator, who sired her second son, actor Anwar Hussain. You can find Anwar on Google.
Her third marriage was to Mohanchand Uttamchand Tyagi, a wealthy Punjabi Mohyal Brahmin (a Hussaini Brahmin) Hindu heir who converted to Islam to marry her and adopted the name Abdul Rashid. His family disowned him but he continued to live happily with Jaddan Bai. Fatima Rashid was their daughter.
After working in two more movies Jaddan Bai formed her own company, Sangeet Films, which produced Talashe Haq. Jaddan was the Actor, Producer, Director, and possibly the first female story-writer for this film. Her daughter was 14 years old and wanted to be a Doctor - but Jaddan Bai said that may come later.

“I think that the only purpose for the death penalty, as I see it, is vengeance – pure and simple vengeance. But I think vengeance is a very personal feeling and I don’t think it is something that civilized government should engage in .…”
–Janet Reno, Former Attorney General of the United States [1]
“The death penalty does little to prevent crime. It’s the fear of apprehension and the likely prospect of swift and certain punishment that provides the largest deterrent to crime.”
–Frank Friel, Former Head of Organized Crime Homicide Task Force, Philadelphia [2]
“Take it from someone who has spent a career in Federal and state law enforcement, enacting the death penalty … would be a grave mistake. Prosecutors must reveal the dirty little secret they too often share only among themselves: The death penalty actually hinders the fight against crime.”
–Robert M. Morgenthau, District Attorney, Manhattan, NY [3]
“I am not convinced that capital punishment, in and of itself, is a deterrent to crime because most people do not think about the death penalty before they commit a violent or capital crime.”
–Willie L. Williams, Police Chief, Los Angeles, CA [4]
