Farah Khan is searching for the "right face" opposite Shah Rukh Khan for her film Happy New Year.
Highlights
- Choreographer-director Farah Khan said she is yet to decide on the female lead opposite Shah Rukh for her new project Happy New Year.
- "I am yet to find the heroine. I am looking for the right face and would tell you shortly when we find her," said Farah on the sets of a TV dance show, here. Farah, 48, said he chose Shah Rukh for the film because he fits into the character.
- "It is an automatic choice - Shah Rukh. Not because he is my close buddy, but he fits into the role."
- Farah, who also made her acting debut last year with Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi, helmed many masala films like Main Hoon Na, Om Shanti Om and Tees Maar Khan.
- Farah has recently choreographed the IPL's new theme song Dil Jumping Zapaak and says the number is a tribute to singing legend Kishore Kumar.
- "It has already become a chartbuster and is actually a tribute to the uninhibited singing style of Kishoreda (Kishore Kumar). The peppy nature of the track and choreography has the look and feel of Kishoreda's timeless funny songs," Farah said.
- She said she is happy with the way Indian women are grooming themselves now, "both homemakers and career ladies".
- "I feel proud to be a mom and a woman, we are gifted. Women have the innate ability to make their mark in the field of aesthetics. No need for any expert help," Farah said.
