Farah Khan Warns Cook Dilip Not To Tell Husband About Her Flirting With Boman Irani
Farah Khan jokingly warns cook Dilip not to tell her husband she flirts with Boman Irani, says she considered casting couch for Main Hoon Na.
Farah Khan's latest vlog is a riot of laughter, nostalgic anecdotes and trademark wit as she visits longtime friend and actor Boman Irani's home, accompanied by her ever-entertaining cook, Dilip. Known for their infectious chemistry and effortless humour, Farah and Boman light up the screen with their banter—and this time, even Boman's wife Zenobia joins in on the fun.
Before stepping into the Irani household, Farah cheekily warns Dilip, 'Don't tell Shirish if I flirt with Boman." Confused, Dilip innocently asks, 'What is flirting?" Farah, with a mischievous grin, explains, 'Flirting means nain mataka, or if I hug Boman sir, or sit next to him."
The laughs don't stop there. Recalling the casting of her 2004 film Main Hoon Na, Farah takes a playful dig, saying, 'The only time I wanted to do a casting couch for my movie was with Boman. But he got the role just like that, didn't even sit on the couch!" The room bursts into laughter. Dilip, clearly puzzled, is then asked if he knows what 'casting couch" means. When he says no, Farah shoos him away with a giggle: 'You please go to the kitchen now."
Even Zenobia takes it in stride. When Boman asks how she puts up with such jokes, Farah interjects, 'Because she knows nobody believes we're having an affair."
The vlog also reveals a charming throwback: Farah once dressed up for what she thought was Boman's birthday party, only to realise she had arrived a day early. The friends shared a hearty laugh reminiscing about the mix-up.
As the group makes their way to the kitchen, Irani tries to excuse himself: 'This means it is my time to get out of the kitchen." But Farah protests, 'No sir, you need to be here. Chutney kaun lagayega apne haatho se?" prompting Irani to call Dilip for help.
In a final moment of comic warning, Farah tells Dilip, 'Dare you tell anything to Shirish. I will have your salary reduced," to which Dilip responds with a sheepish smile.

Kannada Actor Santhosh Balaraj Passes Away At 34 After Bout Of Jaundice
Following his father's footsteps, Santhosh Balaraj took forward the family's cinematic legacy, carving a space for himself in Kannada cinema with a series of impactful performances The Kannada film industry is in mourning following the death of actor Santhosh Balaraj, who passed away on Tuesday morning at the age of 34. Known for his roles in action thrillers like Kariya 2 and Gunpa, Santhosh had reportedly been battling jaundice for several weeks. Despite ongoing medical treatment, his condition worsened and he died at around 9:45 am in a private hospital in Bengaluru. He was admitted to the ICU in his final days. Santhosh Balaraj was widely regarded as one of the rising stars. His sudden death has triggered an outpouring of grief across the industry and among fans, many of whom followed his work closely and believed he was on the cusp of a major breakthrough. He was the son of well-known Kannada filmmaker Anekal Balaraj, who produced the 2003 cult film Kariya, which starred Darshan in the lead role. Anekal Balraj himself had died in a tragic road accident in 2022. Following his father's footsteps, Santhosh took forward the family's cinematic legacy, carving a space for himself in Kannada cinema with a series of impactful performances. Santhosh lived with his mother and was unmarried. Known for his humility and dedication to his craft, his death has come as a shock to friends, colleagues, and fans alike. His breakout role came in 2015 with the film Gunpa, directed by Prabhu Srinivas. The action thriller was a box office success and cemented his image as a dependable lead actor in the genre. Gunpa drew parallels to Kariya, the very film that brought his father fame, both in tone and treatment, and was seen as a symbolic continuation of the cinematic tradition he inherited. Earlier, in 2012, Santhosh starred in the romantic drama Olvin Ole, alongside Neha Patil. Directed by Teshi Venkatesh, the film showcased a different side of his acting range. In 2013, he appeared in Janam, playing the lead role of Kanteerava, a man in love with Kaveri amid fierce family opposition. The film, directed by Chakravarthy, was praised for its storyline and emotional depth. His final appearance was in Kariya 2, a 2017 action gangster film that carried the weight of his father's legacy and his own stardom. Though he had fewer releases in the years that followed, he remained an admired figure in the younger generation of actors. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Rubina Dilaik Backs Deepika Padukone On 8-Hour Shift Demand: ‘Everyone Should Get Time To Rest'
Rubina Dilaik supports Deepika Padukone's demand for 8-hour work shifts, saying everyone deserves rest and creative work thrives with respectful hours. Rubina Dilaik is one of television's most loved actresses, known for being vocal about her opinions and points of view. Recently, she spoke up about one of the most discussed topics in the industry right now, the demand for fixed working hours. The debate began when Deepika Padukone exited Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Prabhas' project, Spirit. Rubina backed Deepika and stated that she has been struggling with the issue of long working hours since the beginning of her career. 'This (working hours) has been a struggle even when I was new to the industry, but very rarely are we heard. If we voice our concern about it, then it becomes news… but working hours have to be respectful," she told PTI in an interview. She further added, 'I'm not saying this because I'm an actor. If I become a producer, I shall ensure that my people work within eight hours. I'll create a system wherein we do meaningful and good work within eight hours, and it's a win-win for everyone." Rubina also said that Deepika's demand is very realistic. 'I'm not saying that the producer or the network should lose money. Everyone should get time to rest because their creativity will flourish. Having said that, Deepika Padukone has not made an unrealistic demand." Bollywood's ongoing debate over work hours For the unversed, the debate over work hours in Bollywood gained traction after Deepika Padukone's departure from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit. Reports claimed that the actress, who recently embraced motherhood, had requested to limit her workday to eight hours, a clause that reportedly didn't sit well with the filmmaker. Several celebrities, including Vikrant Massey, Rashmika Mandanna, Neha Dhupia, Anurag Basu, and others, came out in support of Deepika amid the ongoing discussion. On the work front, Deepika Padukone is all set to collaborate with Atlee once again after the blockbuster hit Jawan. She is reportedly playing a pivotal role in Shah Rukh Khan's King. Meanwhile, Rubina was recently seen whipping up a variety of dishes along with her impressive comic timing on Laughter Chefs 2. Hosted by Bharti Singh and Chef Harpal Singh, the culinary show is nearing its finale. She is now also seen on Pati Patni Aur Panga with her husband Abhinav Shukla.

Malegaon Files Film Announced Based On 2008 Bomb Blast Case
Last Updated: Director Rajiv S Ruia announces Malegaon Files, a film on the 2008 Malegaon bomb blasts, backed by producer Sahil Seth. A new film exploring the complex and sensitive events surrounding the 2008 Malegaon bomb blasts has been announced. Titled Malegaon Files, the project will be helmed by director Rajiv S Ruia, known for My Friend Ganesha, and is currently in its pre-production phase. The film is being backed by producer Sahil Seth under the banner of Cinedust 18 Films Pvt. Ltd. While details about the cast and crew are yet to be disclosed, the makers have shared that the film intends to provide a deeply human and investigative portrayal of the events that unfolded before and after the Malegaon blasts. 'This is not just a story about a blast — it's about what followed. The human stories, the political shadow, the search for truth, and the emotional and legal turmoil faced by the accused and the victims' families. Malegaon Files is our attempt to bring that reality to the screen," said Ruia in an official statement. The film will rely on extensive research and real-life material to shape its narrative. According to the makers, the script is being developed using investigative reports, court proceedings, and first-hand testimonies, with a focus on accuracy and sensitivity. Speaking to ANI, Ruia said the team is currently scouting for real locations where the film can be shot. 'Our writer team is in talks. It is a very sensitive subject. Every detail behind it needs to be brought out. Research is going on… 99 per cent we will shoot on real locations. We will do a recce soon," he shared. The project is expected to begin production in late 2025, with additional announcements regarding casting and scheduling likely in the coming months. The 2008 Malegaon blast occurred on September 29, when an explosive device strapped to a motorcycle detonated near a mosque in Bhikku Chowk, resulting in six deaths and injuring 95 others. Initially, 11 individuals were accused in the case. Eventually, charges were framed against seven, including former MP Sadhvi Pragya. In a significant verdict delivered on July 31, 2025, the special NIA court in Mumbai acquitted all seven accused, citing that the prosecution had failed to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. The case was originally handled by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad before being transferred to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in 2011. The trial spanned nearly 17 years, during which hundreds of witnesses were examined. view comments First Published: August 05, 2025, 20:25 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
