​From Shah Rukh Khan gifting her car with each film to giving acting advice to Archana Puran Singh's sons; Candid revelations made by Farah Khan


Archana Puran Singh invited Farah Khan to her lavish bungalow in Madh Island for an interesting meal. Archana asked Farah what would she like to eat if it was her last meal. Farah shared that she wants to eat rajma chawal, aloo as her hearty meal. As she comes to Archana's place, the filmmaker makes some intriguing revelations.

Farah reveals how Shirish and her kids are shy

Farah congratulated Archana on her new YouTube channel and shared, "I am so happy that your whole family is contributing to the channel. My kids and my husband are Mr. India. They are very shy, so they don't come onscreen. People have also commented asking me whether we have separated or if I like being with them separately."

Farah was a background dancer in Archana's film Jalwa

I was a background dancer behind Archana in Jalwa. I only took up that song because they were taking us to Goa on a flight. We were poor back then, so for me, that was my first experience sitting on a flight. Archana was managing, and there was a South Indian masterji who had pulled his hair out and wanted to take me to Chennai.

Farah had choreographed Shakira

Yes, I had choreographed Kylie Minogue and Shakira. Shakira was at the peak with her song Hips Don't Lie. MTV Awards in New York had contacted me because Shakira wanted to perform in Bollywood style. She danced really well on it. I had made some beautiful costumes for the dancers with mirror work and all but she cancelled it all and gave drabbed orange dhoti outfits to the dancers so that Shakira would stand out in the performance. All this I have learnt from there.

Farah reveals Shah Rukh gifted her new car with each film

When asked who gave her the most expensive gift, Farah revealed that Shah Rukh Khan gifted her expensive cars with each movie that he did with her.

Farah thought Shirish was gay

Shirish was the editor of Main Hoon Na but during the shoot, I used to hate him. For the first six months, I thought Shirish was gay and didn't talk to him. Aaj tak 20 saalon mein Shirish ne kabhi sorry nahi bola hai. He is never wrong according to him.

Farah's advice to Aryamann and Ayushmann for acting

The way the industry is going, you should do whatever you get. If you keep waiting for your launch, Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak koi nahi banake dene wala. So whatever you get, be it OTT, any series or even YouTube, keep showcasing your acting. That is more important for you to be present onscreen.

Farah recalls choreography Parmeet's first audition

Parmeet shared he was quite young when he had come to Farah's old house to learn some dance steps from Sajid. Farah then shared that Archana had called her and in a small studio she had choreographed Parmeet for his first ever audition.
