Farah Khan recalls sleeping at a nightclub in Dubai during Sania Mirza’s birthday celebrations: ‘I was just tired, not drunk’

Sania Mirza, the legendary tennis player, kicked off her new celebrity talk show, Serving It Up with Sania, with a lively and captivating first episode. The show’s opening guest, celebrated filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan, engaged in a candid and humorous dialogue, sharing amusing stories and light-hearted moments that set an exciting pace for the series.


Playful teasing about Dubai night
Mirza began the conversation with a playful jab at Farah’s well-known birthday night in Dubai. She said, “Can you tell them the story of when you came on my birthday at a nightclub? And you slept exactly in this position?” while gesturing toward the couch in her Dubai home where Farah often rests. Farah quickly clarified, “It sounds like I’m 25 years old and partying hard, but honestly, I just passed out sober! There was no blanket, no comfort — I literally slept sitting up in that nightclub.” The two erupted in laughter as they reminisced about how that night became one of their most cherished memories together.



Effortless friendship and laughter
As their chat flowed, it was clear the bond between the two best friends was natural—full of teasing and honesty. Sania remarked, “Whenever she visits Dubai, this couch is her favorite spot. But that night, she found a new one in the club!” Farah, always quick with humor, responded, “I swear, I was exhausted. We were going full blast, music, lights, people dancing — and there I was, out cold, completely sober. People thought I had a few shots, but I was just too tired!” They both shared a hearty laugh, reminiscing about that unforgettable night.


Farah’s wedding dance anecdote
During the discussion, Farah’s knack for bringing life to weddings came up. With her classic grin, she said, “Once, I even ended up teaching Ram Charan some dance steps at a wedding. He picked them up faster than most actors I’ve choreographed.”
