Shah Rukh Khan CRIES while chopping onions, remind Farah Khan's cook Dilip of 'Kal Ho Naa Ho's emotional climax
Shah Rukh Khan
's short and quirky video has gone viral, leaving fans scratching their heads and laughing in equal measure.
In the clip shared by paparazzi page Viralbhayani, SRK is seen cutting onions with serious focus while tears stream down his face. Just as viewers start wondering what's going on, he hands the chopped onions over to the infamous
Dilip
,(
Farah Khan
's cook) who cheekily comments, 'Sir Kal Ho Na Ho ka climax yaad a gaya.' This unexpected moment of SRK in kitchen has triggered a wave of theories, and endless comments on the video.
Fans can't keep calm
Once the video started doing the rounds on social media, fans had a field day. The reactions were a mix of amusement, curiosity, and excitement. Many dropped fire emojis and heart-eyed comments, while others joked about the relatability of SRK crying while
chopping onions
.
One user hilariously wrote, 'Bollywood ke king ko bhi rula diya pyaaz ne hum to phir bhi aam aadmi hai.' Another simply celebrated the bizarre pairing with, 'SRK & DILEEP.. (FARAH KHANS COOK).' Some fans speculated that it could be a scene from a film or a web series, while others imagined it to be the beginning of a cooking show featuring the King of Bollywood and a celebrity chef in the making.
Who is Farah Khan's cook Dilip?
The video features Dilip, who's no stranger to the spotlight, at least for fans of Farah Khan's popular vlogs. Known as Farah's cook, Dilip has made several appearances in her fun behind-the-scenes videos and become something of an internet celebrity. This time, though, he's sharing screen space with none other than Shah Rukh Khan in what appears to be an ad shoot. What we do know is that this unusual collaboration between SRK and Dilip has caught everyone's attention, not just for its randomness but for the humour and chemistry it delivers.
Farah Khan spills the beans
Farah herself had previously teased the shoot in one of her vlogs, sharing a funny exchange she had with Shah Rukh about the whole situation. She recalled him saying, 'Mera time dekh kya chal raha hai, main tere cook ke saath ad kar raha hoon.' To this, Farah responded, 'Mera time soch, tere ko chhod ke usko direct kar rahi hoon.'
As it turns out, Dilip was given a central role in the ad at the last minute, stepping in to replace Farah herself. The twist was revealed during a vlog visit to actor Gaurav Khanna's home. When someone asked who he had worked with, Dilip proudly replied, 'Shah Rukh Khan.'
On the work front, SRK was last seen in the film 'Dunki' and is expected to start work soon on his next big project, 'King', directed by
Siddharth Anand

Suhana Khan
and

Gender Bender: Queer voices take centrestage in city theatre scene
On June 26, even as Pride Month draws to a close, a stage in Andheri will witness something unprecedented: a man performing lavani as a man. Traditionally considered as much a woman's domain as ballet or Bharatanatyam, the centuries-old Maharashtrian dance form has long featured women playing women and men cross-dressing to play women. But when Sopinath Patokar takes the stage, his character will seduce his lover through a masculine version of lavani, stripped of its signature feminine gestures. "This has never happened before," says Bhushan Korgaonkar, who has worked with lavani artists for two decades. "A seductive lavani has never been performed by a man with masculine attributes." That break from tradition is just one of the many subversions in 'Rang Birangi Lavni', a Hindi musical play co-directed by Korgaonkar and Kunal Vijaykar. It features lavani artists performing seven nugget-sized stories with queer protagonists—a non-binary person on a date, a trans woman explaining the power of make-up to her brother, and even a character in love with a tree. "Though lavani has always had a colourful legacy, the word 'queer' did not exist," says Korgaonkar. "Our effort is to normalise its queer themes by stating them matter-of-factly, without colouring or baggage." Since homosexuality was decriminalised in 2018, Mumbai's theatre has increasingly embraced nuanced queer narratives. Playwright Vikram Phukan has been both a chronicler and contributor to this shift. As a drama school faculty member, he recently led students through a course exploring 100 queer-themed plays, many echoing his lived experiences. Phukan's 2019 debut 'Those Left Behind Things' was inspired by Iranian asylum seekers he met in Nottingham. His latest, 'Postcards from Colaba', blends theatre and heritage walk, guiding audiences through Colaba's lanes with promenade-style performances that reveal queer histories through verse. The idea stemmed from an article he once wrote about Mumbai's underground gay scene in the 1980s. To prepare the cast, he sent them on a "treasure hunt" across Colaba to find sites tied to queer lives. The play intertwines archival and fictional elements, referencing figures like filmmaker Riyad Vinci Wadia and theatre maverick Sultan "Bobby" Padamsee. Now staged in English and Hindi, it has connected with many who weren't expecting a play at all. "Most audiences are non-queer, mainly women—many of whom connect with its universal themes," says Phukan. In 2022, G5A staged 'Nava', directed by Sharanya Ramprakash, where nine urban trans women interpreted the classical 'navarasa' through performances based on their lives—from the joy of wearing a saree for the first time to the trauma of emerging from a sewage pipe. "They weren't trained actors," says Phukan, who saw the play. "The performances emerged through workshops and storytelling." "Actors are more comfortable with queer roles now, and audiences—especially women—are more accepting," he says. When 'Be-Loved' opened, director Sapan Saran was unsure how audiences would respond to its portrayal of queer love and longing. "I was quite worried... especially at an emotional level," she says. That diversity, for her, is foundational, not performative. The play weaves together poetry, dialogues, music, abstraction, and arguments, without a fixed script. "Form follows text," says Saran. She kept 'Be-Loved' rooted in contemporary voices. Censorship, however, remains a concern. Some directors submit sanitised scripts to avoid cuts; others take risks. One such director submitted a dystopian play where resistance to state censorship is central. "I didn't want to alter the script just to secure a certificate easily," he says. A dramatic reveal where the protagonist is shown to be gay was flagged—but a board member also left a note saying that while homosexuality remained sensitive, the scene was integral. "I was surprised he actually read the script and responded with such nuance," says the director, who assumed it would be a mere formality. For Puja Sarup, queerness on stage isn't just about identity, but about reimagining possibility. Her drag king persona, Rocky—"definitely Shammi Kapoor himself"—channels gender-fluid swagger. "It wasn't the stoic and 'gambhir' hero," she says. "The way he moved… wow, a hero can be like this." That departure from hypermasculine tropes is part of the joy. "It's just joyous playing Rocky." 'The Gentlemen's Club', which was co-created by Phukan and premiered in 2015, also features Sarup as a drag king real estate agent-turned-comedian. "He cracks the most 'bakwas' jokes," she laughs. In the 2000s, Mumbai saw an all-male lavani troupe—'Bin Baykancha Tamasha'—where men trained to play women. "Not every story has a serious message," says Korgaonkar. "Sometimes, the best way to normalise something is through humour." | Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

When Shah Rukh Khan said ‘sab shaadi kare, main kya karunga' on being asked about Anushka Sharma, Priyanka Chopra's marriage
Shah Rukh Khan and his sense of humor are a great combination. When the two meet then there are only and only fireworks. The actor has often grabbed eyeballs with his witty replies at press conferences, and one such episode happened during Zero's promotional event when a reporter asked Anushka Sharma and him about Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra Jonas getting married. What followed was a hilarious reply from the King actor, and we bet you cannot miss it. During a promotional event of the film Zero, which also starred Katrina Kaif along with Anushka Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan, a reporter went on to ask the PK actress about starting the wedding trend in Bollywood and give wishes to her contemporaries Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra-Nick Jona,s who were getting married too. To this, SRK replied, 'ye trend na mere baap maa ne shuru kiya tha'. This left everyone, including Anushk, laughing. SRK then continued, 'Isne thodi na shuru kiya tha? Anushka ne shaadi ki to sab shaadi karenge, aise thodi na hota hai. Shaadi to kabse ho rahi hai.' The reporter further pushed, Ranveer-Deepika and Priyanka-Nick are getting married, Shah Rukh Khan immediately interrupted and said, 'sab kare mashallah, bahut acha hai. Main kya karu? Begani shaadi me abdullah deewaana, main kya karunga. Wo karenge shaadi, wo karenge maze, wo karenge bachche, main kya karunga? Maine jo karna tha kar chuka hu. Baar baar shaadi karta rahu?' For the unversed, Anushka Sharma had gotten married to Virat Kohli a year before the release of Zero. And this question came because Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra Jonas -Nick Jonas were about to get married. Talking about Shah Rukh Khan's work front, he is all set to shoot for King, which will also star his daughter, Suhana Khan, and Deepika Padukone. The film will be directed by Siddharth Anand, and it will be their second collaboration after Pathaan. Recently, Pinkvilla had exclusively revealed that Rani Mukerji will also be a part of the film and will be making a cameo.
