Farah Khan completes 25 years in the film industry

Filmmaker Farah Khan, who started her career as a choreographer with the Aamir Khan film ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’, has completed 25 years in the industry. Her first song was the classic ‘Pehla Nasha’, which remains one of the best romantic songs to come out of the industry.

In a statement, Farah said ”I’m so fortunate to be able to do what I love for the last 25 years. The constant love and support from the industry and my fans have been overwhelming.”

Farah was one of the most successful choreographers in the industry before she took up directing with Shah Rukh Khan’s Main Hoon Na, a film that went on to do very well at the box office.

‘Tees Maar Khan’ is the only failure of her career. Her last director was ‘Happy New Year’ in 2014.

  • jst tell me a simple thing..according to u varun is 100% successful despite dishoom dilwle being an above avrge.. y farah is nt 100% successful as TMK did semi-hit biz??? why calling it failure wen dishoom is nt a failure for you ….!

  • Main Hoo Na and Om Shanti Om were good Masala entertainers. HNY and TMK were crap.

    Munni Badnam Hui and Baby Ko Bass Pasand hai choreography were full Dhamal- Dhamakedar

    BTW @Indicine Why No #AskIndicine yestaerday? IPL final?? Haha you guys work so hard, sometimes even you guys deserve some fun!!!

  • Farah Khan has been an amazing choreographer . Congratulations for completing 25 years in this industry as one of the most successful choreographers in the last 50 years of Hindi cinema . JJWS is one of the best films of 90’s and a must watch for everyone? . The climax cycling sequence is still thrilling for everyone when it comes on TV . Main Hoon Na was a very good film which has a repeat value on TV . She made a wrong decision to enter filmmaking . Everybody will agree with me after watching TMK and HNY . I hope she sticks to her strengths and does not try to tarnish her reputation . Good luck for the future . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar was a classic. Ahead of its time. Simply Superb!!!

    I guess first sports film of India

  • Congratulations Farah Khan. Ur fantastic both as a choreographer and a director. The only female director in the industry to achieve universal success and 100% success ratio. @indicine if Varun Dhawan has 100% success ratio despite Dilwale Semi Hit. Then Farah Khan is no exception coz Tees Maar Khan was not a failure.

  • She’s fine upto Choreography…. Shouldn’t meddle with direction again !

    Directors like her and he brother as a burden on the film industry…

  • farah khan is the best masala director, main hu na was a classic masala movie, tees mar khan was also good which is the only failur of her, bt i enjoyed it more than rohit shettys all mahacrap movies, she is the classic masala director

  • The woman has records to her credit

    Main Hoo Na-Record opener, despite being from a new production house. Broke 2.5 yrs of record of K3G

    Om Shanti Om-Highest single day, Record weekend. Was primarily declared ATHG but mysterioulsy changed later. ATHG worldwide nevertheless

    HNY-Record opener

    Baby ko bass, Munni Badnam, Sheila ki Jawani etc choreography were good.

  • How is this even worth a mention let alone an article…?

    Shes a flop director hailing from a family that is in tough competition with one another as to whom can make the biggest pile of kSHITij crapfest off all time….!

  • All her films were pure garbage full of ott acting but Tees Maar Joker is half bearable only due to SHEILA…! ;-)

  • @Aadav om shanti om was not an all time grosser even worldwide. according to boi.com dhoom 2( 2006 release) had world wide gross of approx 151.38 crore while oso’s( 2007 release) worlwide gross was approx 149.87 crore, so how can oso be an all time grosser worldwide. it failed to cross dhoom2 both in domestic and worldwide market.

  • HNY – just 4% votes !!!!!!!!! Lol

    And some SRK fans had called it as magnum opus during its release.

    Too much fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • MHN was better of all but still was nowhere close to other movies of SRK. It worked purely due to SRK’s charisma during that period, there was nothing extra ordinary in it. OSO was crap but enjoyed… Ek chutki sindoorr…… Lol …… Rest 2 movies dont even deserve to be mentioned.

  • @ truth or honest man, He clearly said OSO was declared ATHG earlier but it’s collection had been reduced later .
    BTW, why you come here by fake name when u promised not to comment till Tube light release ?

  • None…only thank her for Pehla Nasha. Omo was just average probably Main noon na I may just about go for. Happy New was Senseless. Tmk not watched it and thank God did not.

  • For a female, she has done commendably well in her career aside her choice of films. The only blockbusters she has are her 3 blockbuster kids! She is trully blessed!

  • @Prashant Abhisekh- Dishonest joker promised to come back if sallu gives a record opener. Now the Pan Indian record opener belongs to a regional star by 600% margin. LOL, so he is not only Dishonest but also is shameless regarding his dishonesty. Even after getting caught by his fake name he keeps on commenting. He is a joker.
