Farah Khan
recently visited the
S8UL Gamers
' headquarters in Navi Mumbai with her cook, Dilip, for a new episode of her
YouTube vlog
. The moment they arrived, they were welcomed by a garage brimming with high-end vehicles—sleek cars and luxury bikes parked in neat rows. Dilip, full of excitement, climbed onto a Kawasaki and couldn't help but admire a bright yellow Porsche nearby. Before even stepping inside the house, Farah expressed amusement at how lucrative the gaming world has become.
The S8UL house is home to a group of India's top gaming influencers who work and live together under one roof. Among them is Goldy, a co-founder of the collective, who also joined the vlog. But it was Payal Gaming—who heads India's largest female-led gaming channel with over 4.3 million subscribers—who ended up stealing the spotlight.
In a playful, scripted segment, Dilip kept teasing and joking with Payal, showing great interest in switching careers to gaming. He bombarded her and other creators with cheeky questions about their incomes. Payal responded with good humor, offering to mentor him in gaming. Farah, meanwhile, looked stunned by the lavish lifestyle these young gamers lead, especially when she came across a full walk-in closet overflowing with trendy sneakers. She admitted that her son would be thrilled to see her mingling with such big names in the gaming world.

Things took a comical turn when Farah and Dilip were challenged to a cooking competition, where they had to prepare noodles in ten minutes. To spice things up, Dilip was given a quiz-based challenge: if he got the answer wrong, he would have to overload his noodles with chili. One gamer asked him the full form of "BGMI"—Battlegrounds Mobile India. Dilip, mishearing the question entirely, blurted out a surprising answer involving
Vijay Mallya
. The room froze in disbelief, and Farah burst into laughter, leaving the kitchen to giggle by herself in the living room. The mix-up felt entirely genuine, adding to the charm of the moment.
The collaboration was well-received online, with fans flooding the comment section. Viewers praised the crossover and expressed joy at seeing a mainstream Bollywood personality showing interest in India's booming gaming culture. Farah's YouTube channel is also thriving, now boasting over 1.6 million subscribers.
Vijay Mallya Requests Media Not To Call Him 'Chor'
Disgraced tycoon Vijay Mallya recently made a rare public statement in a four-hour podcast with entrepreneur Raj Shamani, where he expressed regret over the downfall of
Kingfisher Airlines
. This now-defunct airline, once seen as a reflection of his lavish and flamboyant business persona, ceased operations years ago under financial strain. Mallya openly acknowledged the failure of the airline, accepting responsibility and expressing remorse for the collapse that impacted many lives and investors.
Despite the apology, Mallya strongly refuted any claims of criminal behavior or misappropriation of funds. He emphasized that the narrative often portrayed in the media overlooks the deeper and more complicated layers of what actually transpired behind the scenes. According to him, the issues leading to the airline's downfall were far more nuanced than public perception suggests.
During the podcast, he spoke at length about his ongoing absence from India and underlined that he never fled the country to escape justice. Mallya stated that he had left India on a scheduled trip, and while he did not return, he insists it was due to reasons he considers valid and justifiable. He maintained that labeling him a 'fugitive' is technically inaccurate but somewhat tolerable. However, he firmly rejected being branded a 'thief,' asking where such accusations of 'theft' originate when he claims no evidence supports such a charge.
In a more reflective segment of the conversation, Mallya expressed a potential openness to returning to India. He made it clear that his willingness to come back hinges entirely on receiving a credible assurance of fair legal treatment and being allowed to live with dignity. If those conditions are met, he said he would genuinely consider returning to his homeland.
Vijay Mallya is currently facing legal proceedings in the United Kingdom, where he has lived since 2016. Indian authorities have accused him of defaulting on loans amounting to over ₹9,000 crore, borrowed from a group of domestic banks to fund Kingfisher Airlines. These unpaid debts eventually led to a lengthy and ongoing extradition battle, as Indian financial institutions and law enforcement agencies continue to push for his return to face justice.
This candid interview offered rare insight into Mallya's perspective on the allegations, the business collapse, and his extended stay abroad, as he attempted to distance himself from the image of a financial offender and instead frame the story around corporate failure, legal complexity, and a demand for fairness.
