What Farah Said About Facing Harassment 

Farah recalled an incident when a director tried to make advances towards her while she was working on his film as a choreographer. "He came into my room to discuss a song or something while I was in bed, and he sat next to me. I had to kick him out," Farah recounted.

Why Farah Khan Started Doing Vlogs

During the same episode, Farah Khan talked about why she moved to making YouTube content after being successful in the film business.

"Even when my movie was not happening, when I wasn't directing, I said chal (come on), let me do YouTube because I can see the skew. Also, I have 3 kids who go to university next year, and that's bloody expensive. So I just said for a lark, let me start a show on YouTube, and that just clicked," she said.
