Farah Khan

After working together on Om Shanti Om, Farah Khan swears that she’ll never work alongside her husband Shirish Kunder on another film. She won’t be choreographing anymore for him and he won’t be editing for her. So what’s got Farah needing to chillax?

According to Khan, the experience of working together on OSO was horrible enough for her to lament in an interview that she couldn’t do it again. It seems that there was a scene in question which was being interpreted in two very different ways; one by Khan (over the top) and the other by Kunder (very subtle). The problem escaladed when Khan’s conviction was overridden and the edit revealed the subtle take remained. Not pleased at all, she changed it to her version and there it stayed, much to the dismay of her editor/husband.

The decision proved to be the correct one in the end, when at a special showing of the film, the audiences, in between applauds, were on the floor in stitches. Khan looked at the star of the film SRK and they both knew it had been the right choice to make.

So what is Khan’s retort to her husband? “I am not making a crass commercial movie. My movies are on a big scale, they are technically well-shot, and they have a thought process.”

Well … so much for a day in the life of an editor. Sorry Shirish but the director wins this time. Maybe you should bring some flowers home with you tonight … just in case.
