Farah to turn Heroine?

Bollywood's ace choreographer, Farah Khan, is rumoured to have been offered a leading spot in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next, Shirin Farhad. The film, which is being claimed to become a Bela (Bhansali's sister) directorial, shall be a genteel love story of a Parsi couple.

Aged 40 now, Farah was naturally quite apprehensive about taking up this prestigious Bhansali offer, but with constant persuasion from the film makers camp, Farah is heard to have given her nod.

For the record, Bhansali had not shared the greatest rapport with Farah over the past few years. However, that prejudice aside, he thinks Khan has the right amount of Parsi quotient and a fitting natural personality as needed for his movie's female lead. Bhansali opines that Farah's smart wit and perkiness compelled him to offer her the role of 'Shirin', in this home venture.
