Director Farah Khan has recently started her new vlog on YouTube, and it has become a fun watch for many who love her style of banter and commentary.

Recently, Farah visited TV actor couple Shoaib Ibrahim and Dipika Kakar's home in Mira Road, Mumbai. The noted director revealed that she has never been to their home and is going to take roasted chicken for Shoaib.
She was dressed in red, and her visit was during the Ramzan days. The family had fun chatting with Shoaib, Dipika, and their family members, especially his mom and Nani.

Farah Khan then chatted with Dipika and revealed some startling facts and demands that actors have now.

Dipika asked her, and she said, "Abhi toh, 4 vans lagti hai. Now people (actors) are asking for four vans: one for the gym, one for the staff, one for them, and one for the food truck."

Dipika says: "I thought only TV was spoilt." Farah says TV wasn't spoiled.
Then she goes on to reveal that back in the 90s, actresses were forced to change in makeshift bathrooms, especially during outdoor activities. She said now the actor doesn't start shooting until they get their vans.
"Pehle ki heroine chadar pakadke, they would change clothes. I have done it for them. Even when you went to Switzerland, bus ke peeche chadar lagake, but ab jab tak van nahi aati hai tab tak nikalta nahi hai koi shoot ke liye," said Farah Khan.

Dipika was shocked, and she couldn't stop her laughter.

Later, Shoaib, Farah, and Dipika enjoyed the mutton dish cooked by Shoaib's ammi. The two got talking about their struggle, and Shoaib told Farah that he thanked Allah for where they are now, as earlier he couldn't even afford a cup of tea worth Rs 2.

"For me, it is a big thing. I thank Allah for making us reach where we are today. I keep telling all of them that there was a time when drinking Starbucks coffee was also a big thing for me. It was difficult to drink a Rs 2 ka chai. Ammi tells us that there was a time when my father would get chicken only once a month and onions for Rs 2," Shoaib told Farah.
Farah then agreed with them and said it was the same at their home; they would get one piece of mutton once a week, and 'Sajid was such a kutta, he would eat my piece of mutton too. Then I would guard it," she laughed.
Later, Farah grilled Dipika and Shoaib. She asked them Dipika, and her mother-in-law had that saas bahu tu tu main main. To which Shoaib said 'no' and Dipika said, "Initially they had lifestyle issues due to the place from where she came, but now it is not the case."

Farah also asked them about their love lives. Shoaib said it wasn't love at first sight for them; they had met in 2011, started dating in 2015-16, and got married later in 2018.

Farah joked and said, 'You are very fast.' Hinting at the time the two took for their relationship.

Farah became a good friend of Shoaib and Dipika during the shoot of 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa', where Shoaib was a participant. Recently, the couple was also seen at a family dinner at Farah's home.
