We showed you the trailer of Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi, which stars Boman Irani and Farah Khan. Of course, Farah’s used to being behind the camera, but with this film, she’ll be making her debut in front of the camera. Farah says she didn’t expect to be offered the film – but there’s one thing that pretty much convinced her to go for it:

Says Farah Khan, “For almost a week I thought Sanjay and Bela were joking. But when they told me it had Boman, half the job was done.”

Farah also added that she was scared to watch the film, because she knew she’d be extra critical about it and her performance. However, having seen it, she feels like a weight has been lifted off her shoulder. On the other hand, director Bela Bhansali Sehgal is convinced Farah was perfect for the role – she considers her a “born actress” and said for the eight years that she’s been planning this film, she had only Farah and Boman in mind.

Let’s hope these two deliver a cracker of a performance – the pairing is definitely interesting!
