Farah Khan celebrates Gauri Khan’s birthday with sweet wishes
Farah Khan shares a sweet birthday message for Gauri Khan, celebrating their effortless friendship and Gauri's achievements in film production and design.
Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s blockbuster ‘Om Shanti Om’ remains a fan favorite for many, with its soundtrack finding a spot in several Bollywood fans’ playlists. One such iconic song from the film is ‘Deewangi Deewangi,’ which featured 31 stars from the Hindi film industry.
The film’s director, Farah Khan, recently revealed in an interview with Radio Nasha that Mithun Chakraborty’s fans caused a stampede on the set when the celebrated actor came to shoot his part. Recalling the incident, Farah said, “People went crazy for Mithun da, and even I couldn’t believe it. There was a stampede on the set. Mithun da also came after a long time, so light boys and everybody came on the set. I think he was the president of some association and had done a lot for workers. They were literally giving their phones to Shah Rukh to click their photos with Mithun da.”
