Farah Khan Recalls Javed Akhtar Scolding Farhan Over College Admission in New Vlog

The filmmaker shares the family story on her YouTube vlog during a visit to Farhan Akhtar’s home ahead of 120 Bahadur’s November 21 theatrical release.

Overview

  • Farah Khan says a college principal told them Farhan Akhtar was being admitted only because of Javed Akhtar and that he did not deserve the seat.
  • She recounts Javed Akhtar telling Farhan “sharam nahi aati” after he casually asked for masala bhel on the drive from the college.
  • Farhan recalls he was uninterested in college at the time, reinforcing the principal’s assessment in hindsight.
  • The vignette appears in Farah’s latest YouTube vlog, which features a visit to her cousin Farhan’s home as they trade memories.
  • Coverage ties the vlog to promotions for 120 Bahadur, with Farhan playing Major Shaitan Singh under director Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai, and News18 noting he offered Farah a choreography slot she declined.
