Anecdote About Farah Khan
Earlier, on the show, Akshay Kumar shared an emotional yet inspiring anecdote about ace choreographer turned filmmaker Farah Khan regarding a heartbreaking incident from her childhood. He highlighted her deep love for films since childhood, giving everyone a glimpse into her early struggles.
Revealing the incident, Akshay said, “Since childhood, Farah had a great passion for watching films. Whenever she liked a film, she would buy its record. Then an incident happened: her father produced a film, but it did not work. After that, she had to sell all her records”.
Correcting him, Farah said, “First, the record player was sold”. Akshay continued, “Yes, first the record player was sold, then all the records. And today, look at her, she works so hard and breaks records herself”. Farah has often spoken about her childhood days filled with struggle and almost no money after her father's demise.
Farah Khan's Background
For the uninitiated, Farah Khan's father, Kamran Khan, was a former stuntman who later turned filmmaker. He fell into severe poverty after his film 'Aisa Bhi Hota Hai' flopped and a big-budget project collapsed. After facing immense failure, he struggled with alcoholism, which caused intense tension in the household.
