Farah Khan revisits childhood home sold during tough times; ‘We had no sofa, slept on the floor’ | Hindi Movie News

Farah Khan gave her fans a glimpse of the childhood home she once shared with her brother Sajid Khan and their parents, Kamran Khan and Menaka Irani. She revealed in her vlog that the house had to be sold by her mother after the family encountered financial troubles, triggered by the poor box office performance of her father’s film.Contrast between past and presentIn her vlog, Farah took a moment to reflect on the difference between her current lavish residence and the modest house of her childhood. She shared, “Aapne mera naya ghar toh dekha hoga, har vlog main aata hai, sab bolte hain 3 floor hai, bada ghar hai, swimming pool hai. Lekin yeh humara puraana ghar hai, Nehru Nagar society. I’ll show you kitne chote ghar main hum rehte the. Ab mereko pata nahi hai ki humare ghar main kaun rehta hai kyunki tab paise nahi the toh mumma ne bech diya tha ghar (You must have seen my new house in every vlog, people often say it’s three floors, big, and has a swimming pool. But this is our old house, Nehru Nagar Society. I’ll show you how small the house was where we used to live. I don’t know who lives here now, because when we didn’t have money, Mum had to sell the house).”A tour inside the modest homeThe filmmaker took her audience on a tour inside the modest home, sharing heartfelt memories of her early days there. She recalled, “Yeh tha humara hall, yahan sofa bhi nahi tha aur yahan gadde bichhake zameen par sote the hum. Kitna chota kitchen tha and we used to talk to the neighbours through the window because at that time there was no phone in our house (This was our hall. We didn’t even have a sofa; we spread mattresses on the floor and slept here. The kitchen was so small, and we used to talk to the neighbours through the window because at that time we didn’t even have a phone in our house).”Reflections on the small bedroomFarah’s cook, Dilip, joined her as they looked around the small bedroom, and he asked, “Itne se bedroom main kaise rehte the aap log? (How did you all live in such a tiny bedroom?).” Farah responded, “Rehna padta tha tabhi. Ittu sa bedroom tha, 4–5 log rehte the kyunki paise nahi the (We had no choice. It was such a small room, but 4–5 people lived here because we had no money).”Humble beginnings to bigger dreamsDilip added, “Ab toh aapna jhaad ka hi bada room hai (Now even your storeroom is bigger than this!)” To which Farah responded, “Mehnat karoge toh chote se bada ho jaayega ghar (If you work hard, a small house can turn into a big one).” Dilip thanked Farah for also helping him build his house. He said, “Mera bhi toh bada kar diya aapna (You’ve also made my house bigger).”
