Farah Khan: Woman On Top
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 09 2006]
Choregrographer-turned-hotshot-Director Farah Khan is a busy lady. She judges a dance competition in Kolkata in the morning, a music session with AR Rahman for her forthcoming ÂOm Shanti Om in Chennai in the afternoon and back to Mumbai by the evening. ThatÂs a choc-a-block schedule any businesswoman must be wary of. But not this effervescent Khan! She is enjoying it all till the hilt. Coming from a humble background with no godfathers to support, Farah Khan is at the top-of-her-game.
She is looking forward to Âfriend Karan JoharÂs long-awaited ÂKabhi Alvida Na Kehna where she has made the likes of Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Preiti Zinta and Rani Mukherjee dance to Shankar-Ehsan-LoyÂs tunes. Her choreography in the hit ÂRock-n-Roll Soniye is being talked about with reverence. She has also been instrumental in helping her husband Shirish Kunder get a plum project like ÂJaan-e-man which has been making news for the historic distribution rights worth Rs 7 crores in the Mumbai territory.
Farah Khan has broken all stereotypes. Being a woman she doesnÂt espouse for women protagonists only in her films. Her cinema is Manmohan Desai brand of make-believe-fantasy cinema with the sole aim of entertaining people. More power to Farah Khan.
