According to the prevailing law of the country, sons and daughters do not get equal shares in the father's property. The daughter usually gets half of the son's share. However, actress Runa Khan's brother Tuhin set an example by not following the traditional rules.
Recently, Runa Khan said in a Facebook status that her father had a 25-katha ( approximately 34025 metre square) land. Her brother gave her half of the money for selling that land. Even though everyone forbade her brother from doing this, he did not listen. When reminded of the law, he said, "I do not follow those rules."
Runa mentioned in her post, "Tuhin is one and a half years younger than me in age, but 5 years behind in studies! My parents admitted me directly to class two in primary school at the age of 5. And in 5 years, he was 10 years old when he was admitted to class two, after playgroup, and kindergarten."
Then the actress wrote that when she was admitted to Eden for her bachelors, her brother was in class 9. Due to family circumstances, Runa had to take tuitions to study and manage the family. Her brother has not forgotten Runa's contribution to the family.
