New Delhi:
Choreographer-turned-director Farah Khan makes her debut as an actress in romantic comedy Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi, releasing today and co-starring Boman Irani.
Produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Sunil A Lulla and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali's sister Bela Sehgal, Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi explores life and love after 40.
When Farah was offered the role by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, she reportedly took it casually and said yes thinking the film would never go on floors.
However, she was surprised when Mr Bhansali reverted to her with the exact plan and shooting schedule.
"I had no wish to become an actress though I had done a cameo or two here and there. When Sanjay first told me about the film, I was surprised. I said yes thinking no one will fund where Boman (Irani) was the hero and I was the heroine. I thought the film would never go on floors," said Farah in a recent interview.
Farah Khan and Boman Irani have left no stone unturned to promote their upcoming film. From getting Shah Rukh Khan as a special guest at the music launch of the film, to getting dressed up as SRK and Kajol from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai for the posters of the film, to making a special appearance on the dance reality show, Jhalak Dikhlaa Jaa 5, Farah and Boman have done it all.
The movie also stars Daisy Irani, Shammi, Kavin Dave and Kurush Deboo, and offers hit songs like - Ishq mein tere bina and Shirin Farhad ki toh nikal padi.
