Farah Khan Visits Shruti Haasan’s Home for a Fun-Filled Vlog Episode
Filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan returned with another entertaining installment of her vlog alongside her trusted cook, Dilip. This episode took viewers inside actor Shruti Haasan’s stylish Mumbai residence, known for its striking industrial-themed interiors. During the visit, Farah decided to address a frequently asked question from her audience—whether Dilip receives any special payment or royalties for appearing in her YouTube videos.

The day at Shruti’s home unfolded over a warm and lively interaction, with the host herself preparing a delicious spread of sambar and dosa. The atmosphere was further elevated when Shruti showcased her musical talent, playing an original piece on the piano and lending her voice to a soulful melody. In the midst of this, Farah shared a lighthearted detail about Dilip’s musical endeavors, revealing that he had recorded a humorous track with Shankar Mahadevan titled Meri Pagar Badhao—loosely translating to a request for a salary increase.

    Shruti, curious and concerned, asked if Dilip truly receives additional payment for his appearances on Farah’s YouTube channel. While keeping the exact figures under wraps, Farah assured that he is well-compensated, joking that his earnings surpass those of everyone else present. When Shruti mentioned they were simply looking out for him, Farah playfully responded that the real concern should be for her instead.

    “Yes, he gets a lot—more than everyone here put together," Farah quipped.

    Since the launch of her YouTube cooking series in 2024, Farah’s collaboration with Dilip has struck a chord with audiences. What began as informal kitchen sessions has evolved into a popular, web-series-style vlog that thrives on more than just recipes. The easy banter, genuine warmth, and witty exchanges between the two have become a major attraction, turning Dilip into a favorite among fans. Over time, they have cooked with celebrities such as Kajol, Ananya Panday, and Vijay Varma, adding variety and star power to the channel.

    Meanwhile, Shruti Haasan is gearing up for the release of her action-packed thriller Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. Featuring an ensemble cast that includes Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, Upendra, and Soubin Shahir, the film will also feature a special cameo by Aamir Khan. Scheduled for release on August 14, it is set for a box-office face-off with War 2, starring Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan.
