Rajkummar Rao and Farah Khan | Tape Cast |
Vložit
- čas přidán 16. 12. 2017
- Actor Rajkummar Rao has worked his way up by shinning in smaller, indie projects like Shahid, Newton and Trapped. Filmmaker Farah Khan makes big commercial films like Om Shanti Om and Main Hoon Na with the country's biggest star Shah Rukh Khan. In our second episode of Tape Cast (presented by Grey Goose) we bring together these successful artistes to discuss their wildly different journeys, choices and opinions on filmmaking. We also get a sense of what a Farah Khan film starring Rajkummar Rao would look like.

I don't think Farah insulted Rajkumar. She merely insulted herself.
Totally agree! So full of herself...!
😂😂😂😂
I love when he says "they have surely worked hard....probably not on their acting but other things"
AHahahahahaha
Raj Kumar nailed it
Robert Downey Jr he was nominated for Oscars he played African American best reply.
"who??"
Harsh Pankhania iron man wala hero
Actually Rajkummar Rao is wrong, Robert Downey Jr didn't play an African American, he played a narcissistic white actor who plays a Black character in the film *within* the film. Tropic Thunder actually makes fun of the fact that a white person is playing a person of color. Raj is a great artist and I have great respect for him but he's completely off the mark here.
Chootiye, he played an actor *PRETENDING* to be African-American 😒💩👎

Not to mention the multiple choreography of FLOP songs (ex. Himmatwala, Hote Hote Pyar, etc)

Well as director... she only had one flop. Thats is quite well for a director atleast.
Well they didn't specify what type of failure. And she only directed 4 films. Most of her career has been as a choreographer.

Lol
la la land is a tribute to hollywood and jazz music , people find that really new and fresh but om shanti om is actually a really entertaining tribute to bollywood and its cliches. i think it is best work of farah khan and will be.hell , even edgar wright , a great film maker , intially just takes a genre that is popular and twists it around. i think there is more to film making than we actually see.
and brother om shani om's second half was actually copy of karz
7:13 - Rajkumar Rao : Robert Downey Jr. was nominated for oscars.
7:14 - Farah Khan : Who???
She's so big,she pretends she doesn't know him well
I- I can't even-
Exactly bro. I mean what the hell is farah doin in movie if she doesn't even know whonthe hell Robert Downy Jr is... Life what the faq😑😑I am 🤐🤐
What's wrong about that. I think what was more wrong that Rajkumar rao was wrong there. Rdj pretended to play black man as a bad actor being white man. Its a comedy.
@@Melroda Ironically, RDJ wanted to play that role to show the prejudice colored actors face in the industry. He was so convincing that to this day many deny that he's the same white actor playing Iron Man.
There's a huge intellectual gap between the two
Yes a very very huge gap... 👍👍
Rajkumar Rao is a very good speaker: Confident, ready witted, organized and honest!!
Great actor and down todo earth person.
I wish it was Kangana and Farah. No wonder Rao nailed it anyway, but Farah would have had a poker face in the entire show then.

Bcoz men have to be respectful towards ladies...so much for being a lady...
Don't put a passionate actor and an ignorant director in a frame.
The first episode was a delight. This time its just cringe watching Farah Khan replying to nepotism questions by saying doctor ka beta doctor. Its just migraine inducing.
Migraine inducing🤣🤣

I don't think it was pride.. more a honest curiosity maybe?!

I know right!
5:59 Best part::: RajkumarRao had to face because his skin complexion was not fair enough for certain roles,
Rajkummar says____, "I didn't use Fair and Lovely. I was very proud of my skin colour. I am an actor. I am not here to sell my fairness. I used to laugh, actually. I found those people so ignorant. So regressive. They are still stuck in that era - hero matlab gora chitta, 6 foot.""""" Thumbs up Rajkumar👍

🙄🙄🙄
#arrogance
Farah was bragging and boasting about herself too much from the beginning.And Raj was just agreeing quitely.I know what he must have felt from inside 😒😡...
Rajkumar metioned about film "Killa" , I am amazed by his sincere Studies about Good films..👌👌
RAHUL PATIL he was former student of FTII. And FTII teach you from 0 to infinity
JOYTI YADAV Exactly..!! But it's not always about the Institute..!! Star-kids also be to international film schools but I don't think they study this deep as he protrays here..!!
Unfortunately he referred it to Farah khan
Time ?
RAHUL PATIL Dude why do you think so😡? Both star-kid and outsider can give flops as well as good movies.
As soon as Farah uttered the words 'African-American', I immediately thought about Robert Downey Jr. Then suddenly at 7:11 - bang! Careful Ma'am, it's Rajkummar Rao :)
Robert Downey Jr didn’t played the character of African American. Go and read the cast of Tropic Thunder on Wikipedia. He played the character of an Australian film star.
Does not matter! He is an white american playing a black man in the movie.
@@cynicalteacher8263 which is actually known as blackface.
Yes its blackface and its so wrong i get that but thats not the point that Raj is tryin to make. Talent should be the reason you get a job not because of yo last name or because you have fair skin.
@@cynicalteacher8263 yes that is correct but rdj thing was cringy to watch. He could've used other examples.

I am glad Rajkumar didnt get intimidated by Farah and said what he feels like, in another episode Aayushman was so nervous in front of Zoya...he was not himself.
Without attacking Ayushmann, I'd say he did try to keep it in check with Zoya because she's a good filmmaker, someone he would want to work with. Rajkumar, on the other hand, had the liberty to not pull his punches because pandering to a sad excuse for a filmmaker, that is Farah, would not do his credibility any good.
Rajkumar has so much knowledge about films worldwide. Farah being in the industry for 25 years couldn't argue with him. Rajkumar is a genuinely talented actor and film industry is blessed to have him
LOL when Farah Khan called English Vinglish a "small independent film"

@@ambujvashistha disagree many Americans are unaware of srk as well despite being global icon. Priyanka chopra still have not shown her acting stills yet in Hollywood.
Rajkumar : "I know your take..." xD
When Farah Khan says, "So much for feminism" she does not realize that feminism does not comply actresses to say yes to a script or agree with each other even if they don't. If two people don't want to act together it should be understood that they won't. Why not speak about the big Khans too, who don't agree to be on the same screen? Just because you know one big word you don't just throw it anywhere. Feminism allows men and women to love, respect and accept each other while at the same time it allows one to make their own choices. Her ignorance hurts me physically knowing that there are so many others in that industry with that kind of power and mindset. Professionals like Rajkumar, Kangna, Vidya, Irfaan, Kalki, Kashyap, Hirani, Konkana, Shoojit Sircar, and of course some more if not too many, give me hope that the Hindi Film Industry can change for better. I pray that they succeed! I don't think people like Farah realize the kind of impact and outreach "Bollywood" has globally. The movies don't just go to places to make them the crores. Movies are an immensely powerful tool and that's wherein the power should be!

Well... when you are 5 year old (eldest child) an suddenly infront of your own eyes seeing your family going bankrupt, from rich to rags losing all the luxury of the life and then had to live a poor and cheap. When u cant even afford to celebrate your own birthday but was able to celebrate it with your (Honey Irani)aunt's son aka your cousin(Frahan Akhtar) because you luckily have same date of birth.
When have you seen your young ones(Sajid Khan) to be being sad and sort of frustrated with this life.
And then you on your own became a successful choreographer starting quite fresh and young(a field unrecognised back then) and than to a director.
Seeing all this regressive past and making a few crazy films for crazy sum of money ... i wont call her morally bad or unethical, she does all this beacuse she knows how IMPORTANT MONEY IS in life. And same are the reasons for Sajid khan for all his filmography.

I probably think half of the comment section doesnt know who the are
@@santioned_sneh well then you are worse than farah khan.. I know them (but never seen any of their work) but IT DOES NOT MATTER WEATHER I KNOW THEM BECAUSE I AM NOT FROM THAT FIELD.
Not knowing some of the best work in the industry you are working in is not an excuse for god sake.. and not just that, comparing Bollywood's Nepotism to a Doctor's profession was just LOL.
Her intelligence can easily be seen from the movies she makes.. even a newly made director coming out of a film school can do far better work than her. None of her story is plot driven for god sake. Everything is all over the place. She don't even know how to use a camera to tell the story. Camera is not just a recording device 😂.
Let me give you a few interviews of Anurag Kashyap so that you might understand a little behind how much hard work a director needs to put to increase their knowledge and be worth the money spent-
According to farah : Om shanti om is mother of all films.

Please watch the video again and also some of Raj Kumar Rao's movies cause it seems like aap baas andhere me teer maar rahe ho. Everyone can see whose talking liberally and who isn't.

Nepotism exists. Only beneficiary would deny its existence. Like our dear Rahul Gandhi.
Rajkumar is everything Indian cinema needs, Farah has everything Indian cinema needs to get rid of.
Neo Theone oh hooo i loved your comment😂😂😂
How is Farah a product of nepotism??
Arjya Rishi ohhhh
I agree👍👍
And only a struggling actor will blame everything on nepotism. The results are in front of you. Nepotism gave us Aamir Khan. But it also gave us his brother. You know Ranbir Kapoor, right? Do you know his uncle Karan Kapoor? Of course you don't. The world didn't accept him. Nepotism can get you your foot in the door, but in the end, it is about talent. Of course, in Udit Chopra's case, he didn't just get his foot in the door, he broke down the door, entered the house, and took a nap in the bedroom, but the world still isn't accepting him. Nepotism is bad, but there are likely many shitty actors blaming nepotism for their problems.
No disrespect to Farah , but I wish she was not there with Rao .
Vikas Bir Sandhu even if it's a disrespectful she shouldn't be here
Full disrespect to farah, I wish she was not there at all

He just made her look stupid with his witty reply about afro American role 😂
Rajkumar is so eloquent and poised. Ah! The contrast is heartbreaking.
Dear Rajkumar Rao,
Please never do any movie with this arrogant, ignorant lady who thinks small budget movies are boring.
Humble Request!!
From,
Your Fan!
Tell Farah Khan, if she doesn't know this that doctor's kids go to medical school(nothing less than 7-8 years of rigorous academics) to get a doctor's degree. Influence se medical schools mein admission nahi milta! Also, ask her just how many out of the star kids that have been launched actually have a degree in film/acting. Probably this is the only interview where the director's not as smart as she claims and the actor's rooted. Good going Tapecast. Can't wait for Kalki and Anurag's interview.
Nidhi Kalra I agree with what you said on the whole, but medical seats on influence are available for the right money in big enough colleges.
Okay there's so much to contest here. Medicine- if you don't know someone connected but have gone to college and got top marks you will probably be able to be a doctor- of course. But if you do have connections and also get really good marks, you'll be able to become a doctor much faster and a little more seamlessly (think internships, easier admission, hospital placements and favouritism in the hospital due to your chacha being the head of cardiology). You also forget the advantage of being brought up in a family where the main point of conversation is medicine- big Latin words become much more part of normal vocabulary- seeing your parents deal with heavy stress means that lifestyle becomes the norm for you and when you come to live it, it's easier. You can't discount how nepotism is rife in any industry. In Bollywood the disadvantages of nepotism are much higher than other industries. The spectrum goes right from your first Friday- the chances of flopping and the entire family being shamed publicly for it all the way to when this nepotism debate surfaces and Bollywood has the nastiest light shone on them because of the jealousy rife in society. Because you can't be picky about which doctors you get treated by but you can abuse these actors on social media and ruin their lives and careers because of half baked opinions. Life is great for actors who have made it but parts of it must be really shite too
I know sir, my bad. I should have said "Influence se medical schools mein SABKO admission nahi milta!" I should have also added "Aur jin undeserving logon ko milta hai, bhagwaan bachaye unse patients ko."
Hi Nidhi, where has your response to my comment above gone? Not sure if you deleted it or I just can't see it. Posting my response below anyway.
Your Response - Your optimism is dangerous. Here are a few scenarios you may have not considered: What if you don’t work hard because you know your connections will get you in anyway? What if you get into school just because you can afford to but drop out midway because you cannot cope with the stress? This has happened in the past. A sheer waste of a seat that could have gone to someone truly deserving. The problem with clout is it opens doors for the underserving too. It is neither healthy nor should be encouraged. And the people who think it is ok to take this route should atleast be courteous enough to acknowledge the fact that they did not work for it!
My response- This is why I was very particular about the connected medic also getting good marks. I’m comparing 2 good doctors, the only variable is that one is from a medical family and connected while the other isn’t. In a nutshell, my argument isn’t about how there should be more nepotism in the world. I feel that people who are not good at their job should not be doing that job. I agree that people like Jacky Bhagnani, Harman Baweja, Bobby Deol etc etc should NOT be superstars because they are not deserving. But the flip side of that argument is that fantastic actors like Aamir Khan, Alia Bhatt, Shahid Kapur, Kareena Kapoor should not be entirely shunned just because their parents did the same job. If you are good at your job, that’s it, you are good. The reality is people like Bobby etc are rejected by the audiences, yes they get the initial advantage of a break but the audience isn’t stupid- producers stop banking on them and they can only be supported by their own banners- eventually making their families lose money too when the films flop. Just because you know their name does not mean they are successful. In fact, the fact that you even know their name makes it impossible for them to find an alternative career.
Your response- Agreed but the kids still have to go to school to be officially recognized as doctors and start their practice. I don’t see any mandatory milestones set for film kids that determine whether they are eligible to act in movies or not. Plus film kids necessarily do not go through the same struggles that their parents have gone through. In fact, if social media is anything to go by, they are living pretty extravagant lives without actually doing much to earn it.
My response- this is when the doctor comparison gets a little murky. If a film actor was directly responsible for ensuring someone is alive or dead, then yes they too would have to get an education. But this is not their responsibility- their responsibility is to entertain. This is more of a natural talent- it can’t be learnt. The only learning needed is how lighting works, how mood is set etc. That’s why so many of them become ADs. A lot of them also go to study at various acting schools. Many have to go into months of physical training to look the part. You can’t claim that they wake up one day and say “Papa mujhe actor banna hai” and walk onto the set that same day. A lot of thought and prep goes into it. I won’t go into the social media bit because that is a tool specifically designed to show off only the good parts of your life. The fact that they don’t write a post about the negatives doesn’t mean those don’t exist. When they do talk about the negative side they get numerous trolls calling them out saying ‘be happy for what you have’. So you can’t win can you.
Response - Disadvantages of nepotism better be higher in the film industry given the actor’s fees is sky-rocketing too. I have zero sympathy for actors who rant about the public being harsh. Mind you I am not rooting for trolls paid to hound celebs, but celebrities feeling shocked about public criticizing them is amusing to me. They should not expect millions of fans following them on social media to only express appreciation. They should be geared to face criticism, however harsh it maybe.
My response- Agreed. They do have to deal with a lot and so they do bear it. If they made a big deal about each mean message they get, that’s all they’d be talking about. It’s true, dealing with it is on them. But the argument that because parts of their life are good, we as an audience have a responsibility to add the bad and balance it out is ridiculous. We have no idea about the intricacies of their lives. My perception of you from your photo and this conversation is that you are a pretty looking lady, seem educated, are wealthy enough to own some form of media to watch this video and are clearly fortunate enough to be fed and watered. Everything I know about you is positive, you live a great life. Does that mean you now deserve some hatred? I know we’re comparing millions of twitter followers to fundamental wants and needs but the crux of my point is- Do we have to add negativity just because we see someone is happy?
Response - Well, life for undeserving people who made it into the industry without trying too hard and just because they were born into film families should be shit. And that people on social media are openly expressing this is a fantastic thing.
My response- Almost totally agree here too. But can you name 3 people who are really successful in Bollywood but are completely talentless from a famous family? I also totally agree that people’s freedom of speech is fantastic. But when this privilege is used to exclusively spew hate, I’m not a fan of those select people.
the intro says it all
"I have also got national awards"
"only one flop, man i am not answering this dude's questions"
i just came here to watch Rajkumar.. Such a smart and brilliant person... He shut Farah up with all answers where couldn't deny any of the facts!!
why is farah so arrogant...ma'am plz learn from rajkumar....he is so humble even after getting so much sucess...man i m gonna watch all ur films and projects
She has to because the so called “intelligent critics” like to shit on her and not give her her due credit when her films have been loved by the country
King Louis no wonder people shit on you after you make something like tees maar khan
Kung Fu Pandit oh god- what about main hoon na, om shanti om. She knows the audience and makes what she enjoys watching. Don't attack her for it just because that's not your choice of cinema. Pseudo intellectuals with no actual understanding of talent are hilarious
Tiafulable1 Other than these two rest of her movies are shit, you would agree with me on that. Yes, her movies are different but have you watched tmk, hny. Why didn't audience love those movies? And it's okay to make bad/average films but don't you see her attitude, she is ignorant and prejudiced.
so much cringe....while l liked Farah's interview with Anupama , here compared with Rajkumar she comes across as quite ignorant.... English vinglish a small budget indie movie 😂
Keeru B and when he said ' Avatar?! Lollll she was blank for a second
i love how rajkumar is handling this whole situation and behaving more maturely an respectfully
This episode will be always remembered for Rajkumar's savage replies to Farah's shitty questions
I love Raj Kumar. He has been the best thing that has happened to the Hindi film industry in recent times. Poor Raj Kumar, I could clearly feel his discomfort and playing it cool. He clearly had so much to say, but was diplomatic here. And oh dear, Farah considers herself a great filmmaker. Both her OSM and MHN were average films. In terms of hits, even Housefull series are hits but would you call them great films?
tbh both were shit her only average film was Main Hoon Na and that too worked because it was the time where people weren't exposed to good films; now I hardly doubt that people will watch it as people have started to watch neoir genre films and good content youtube creators have been making
More Saiyan haha... didn’t watch that one! 😊
moin khan it’s an interesting observation. But again, there still is a large audience for these brain-dead films with item songs and loud crass dialogue spewing films. I would categorise every Salman films as such. I used to like him before but now it’s just Salman being Salman, flexing his muscles and all those slow motions. I couldn’t sit through Ek Tha Tiger ( and I tried watching it on a long flight). 😕 I’m glad actors like Rajkumar, Irfan, Nawaz, Vidya and Kangana are there (though few and far in between) are doing varied roles with so much of ‘act’ in acting that gives us cine-lovers some hope. 😊
unemployed singh rajput I agree. The other day I just clicked on Biwi No. 1 as it’s on CZcams and like you, it’s a pleasant childhood memory. But dear oh dear, the sexism laden dialogues and Salman’s extra marital affair is supposed to be comedic completely blew my mind away. Crude, crass and utterly ridiculous! Couldn’t watch it, as you said. Instead, I can watch and rewatch Sholay, Bawarchi and Anand any day. Would pay to see them on the big screen.
TenD
N I agree with rajkumar.. we audience want to watch talent on-screen no matter he is any star's son or not! Finally what really matters is good cinema.
anupama maganur well said...
4:59 Farah : it was a small film for my standard. Are you talking about your standard or my standard ?
Rajkumar (Decent gentleman) : (laugh) your standard obviously !
The way Rajkumar replies shows you how passionate he is about his craft😍
This is the best and the worst ends of cinema coming together. Fucking amazing
Srinivas Mohan haha😂 true
How stupid is Farah!
Doctor banne ke liye they HAVE TO study and get a degree.
Acting degree lekar films nahi milti.
Stars BUY films for their children which are snatched away from deserving people
agree 100%
NS23 And some people pay millions to get their “undeserving” kid into medical school and give bribes to get them into hospital or open a clinic for them. Any good parent would do everything in their power to help their child realise their dream. After that its up to the child whether they work hard to keep their job, regardless of the field. A talentless second gen actor will get a few chances before the public and industry reject them, for example, Jacky bhagnani, Harman baweja, etc.
And they flop if they don't have talent. Just like a doctor will be shunned out of practice if he/she is not talented.
NS23 how stupid are you!
So many untalented or even less
Talented star kids keep getting films.
Abhishek, Uday, athiya Shetty, sooraj pancholi, sohail khan, jackky bhagnani.
Some keep getting films even after delivering consecutive flops like Ranbir, even though he's a terrific actor. Any other good actor who's an outsider won't get so many chances
Rajkumar distroyed Nepotism chachi ..
He is such a great actor .. he said " I really like main hu naa " with straight face ..👏👏
10:32, our "Sir Rajkumar Rao" nailed it, amazing Actor. Big fan of you sir. Love you from heart!
Farah Khan's concept of cinema is very convenient- 'Big movie' vs 'small film'. Story of Bollywood! And she didn't know Robert Downey Junior? What!
She is a certified chutiya 😂😂
rosun raj she knows only Ed Sheeran 😁😁
Mayurakshi Dey Ed says # MeToo
rosun raj 😂😂😂😂 so true oh my god
You dont even know who Rituparna ghosh but its ok bro because she probably knows her.
Farah Khan’ s part was weird! So cringeworthy
i almost stopped watching the video for the same reason.
xD
I love how Rao isn't even trying, he's just being himself and you can see how genuine he is, it's beautiful. Please don't change. Farah on the other hand, I can't stand her mindset.
Rajkummar is truly intellectual and witty with his answers 😍 Great actor and very well informed about his field of work
7:14, Farah knew she fucked with wrong guy.😂 Anyway, Rajkumar is right, there is no limit to acting.
She's like a female Donald Trump who made some movies
"I watch movies, I see all. I will see them on Netflix or TV. They say "Farah Khan doesn't watch movies" but I watch the best movies, tremendous ones. Little Rocket Man, however, doesn't have movies in his depleted and food starved regime. My movies are bigger, I have resources to make them, and my movies are never flops. Never flops."
@@rezwanul99 Brilliant. Mean but just gold.
Literally your comment is the best
Exactly 😂
Omg 😂
Rao is just amazing in his way of answering
He is simple n straightforward......yet elegant!!!
Farah khan: my son wants to be a director. We are doomed.
Just 3 minutes into it and leaving..this pompous pretentious woman is a real turn off!
sharmi chakraborty haha well said. She is usually funny but here indeed a turn off.
good riddance
True
Totally agreed, though Rajkumar nailed her head when he talked about Acting versatility giving examples of Naseeruddin shah and Robert downey jr.
Exactly. What a silly combination by Film Companion to put these two. Does she even know what small indie film means? She's like I watch and "wait something to happen". No wonder you made stupid films like HNY and TMK
bareily ki barfi small independent film ?
hahaha seriously these are indian directors view
wow
Not all of these only some of them like her
@@TahirAli-ri3hn most with such views are the one most successfull i.e. Rohit Shetty
@@rahulsaran836 yeah but there are lots of lots of good and creative directors out there in bollywood who don't think that way
This is one of the best acting by Raj Kumar Rao; like how much he agreed to Farah and he is not willing laugh on smirk on her answers. He is really an awesome actor. 😅
His thinking is so international and standard (naming Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg) and there she is saying Deepika and Katrina illogically 😂😂
This guy is extremely witty. 💯
Over nepotism, both of them are trying so hard to not fight on camera but have such opposite views!!
Farah's point about an actor's son being an actor being equal to a doctor's son being a doctor is so pathetic.. the doctor doesn't set the paper for the PMT entrance, the doctor can't ensure another more talented kid doesn't get the seat..
The whole grouse with nepotism is that it gives the kid a launch pad. Look at Athiya Shetty or a Sonakshi Sinha or an Arjun Kapoor, getting multiple crores of rupees for a new film even if their last one flopped.. if there was a doctor son of a doctor dad, after one mistake on the operation table he'd be ostracized in the society.
Athiya shetty is like abhishek bachhan underated, nice person. Watch motichoor chaknachoor
I just hope that somehow Farah reads the comments on this video.
This is the best out of all the tape videos. Please bring such poles apart personalities together:)
Every word coming out of Rajkumar made me proud that I'm a fan of this guy and I love him dearly! And he's far good looking than most bollywood actors. But the way he speaks and reacts to things, having profound knowledge of his field. This guy deserves every bit of success and respect coming his way. Much Love To Rao ❤
Her son writes script and she makes "big budget entertaining movie" on them! Lol 🤣
Raj will be as big a superstar as SRK tomorrow, then everybody who disses him today will be touching his feet. Go Raj for me you and SRK are the real kings❤
her reaction, when he gave the example of rdj, just sums up her knowledge of cinema and it also does very well to underpin the arrogance in her tone.
Farah seems to have a limited world view, she is stuck in 70's-80's cinema. Her movies may be commercial hits but r low on content. She represents a business mind and not necessarily a creative mind.Her opinions are hugely painted to suit the survival of her benefactors and friends(SRK, Frhan akhtar, K jo ,Shrish kunder)
Well... when you are 5 year old (eldest child) an suddenly infront of your own eyes seeing your family going bankrupt, from rich to rags losing all the luxury of the life and then had to live a poor and cheap. When u cant even afford to celebrate your own birthday but was able to celebrate it with your (Honey Irani)aunt's son aka your cousin(Frahan Akhtar) because you luckily have same date of birth.
When have you seen your young ones(Sajid Khan) being sad and sort of frustrated with this life
And then you on your own became successful choreographer starting quite fresh and young(a field unrecognised back then) and than to a director.
Seeing all this regressive past and making a few crazy films for crazy sum of money ... i wont call her morally bad or unethical, she does all this beacuse she knows how IMPORTANT MONEY IS in life. And same of the reasons for Sajid khan for all his filmography.
PS. - Main Hu Naa is one of my fav. SRK film and I dont enjoy nor do i got to watch sajid khan.
@@santioned_sneh abe chup kar srk, farah aur sajid ke fan
Oh my God she is such a stuck up snob. Am I the only one who feels she is being condescending towards him??
Rajkummar's sarcasm is at peaks throughout the interview. Poor farah couldn't even get it.
After tried and refused production 🤣🤣
Wonder how Rajkumar Rao tolerated this shallow woman and trying to hold on to a logical conversation with Farah Khan. She is so annoying. No doubt she has a brother like Sajid Khan. Siblings with no sense.
Rajkumar Rao hatsoff man... Keep doing hard work. We support you ♥️
GOPAL KRISHNA BEHERA yes we do... #RKR
Raj Kumar, you are a Dude. An absolute gem, who love his profession passionately. God blessing on you. Your rumor\dream is definitely become true, i am "certain"
the biggest mismatch on-screen.On one hand, A man who involves his soul in his craft, on the other hand....well...do I need to tell anything?
And all this discussion about what's wrong with Bollywood, can be seen here. Farah didn't realise but Rajkumar Rao's savage crushed her, everytime she opened her mouth !
Rajkumar Rao deserves better!
Loved how he was shutting Farah up with his knowledge. She must hv been embarrassed for having lived in a bubble for so long
Kaushik Reddy so much better...
Rajkumar nailed it..👍He is a great actor in true sense...❤️ His intelligence is more than Farah Khan...
This guy earned one more fan!
he owned Farah Khan!!
I disagree with the people's resentment over choice of artists for this. I feel Farah and Raj represent polar opposite schools of thought in terms of film making, both of which are crucial and must exist simultaneously for a thriving industry.
Their conflicting views, expressed in a light (from Farah) or respectable (From Raj) manner was really enjoyable to watch. I absolutely loved it when Raj pointed out that there are indeed star kids who receive a lot of love and appreciation from the audience. Nepotism becomes an issue when non-deserving, untalented star kids are doled out these opportunities, ignoring talent. He put that across so concisely and cordially. Much to be learnt from his civil, yet not submissive demeanour. All the very best to him!
As always, thank you Film Companion :) This series is truly a delight to watch.
So glad you enjoyed watching it, Annie. We look forward to giving more such content! Stay tuned :)
Annie very nicely put, I read your comment before watching and now I’m surely going to watch, was little skeptical before though
i disagree..people like farah khan and rohit shetty are not directors they are a cancer to the film industry.When will they stop making these mind numbing bullshit in the name of movies.Farah khan isnt needed in the industry,forget being crucial.
People aren't actually resenting putting Farah up with Rajkumar, they are resenting putting up Farah.
Annie both siblings farah n sajid r scumbags of bollywood
Just watching her talk is hurting my head, god bless Rajkumar Rao man such a great soul.
14:30 because he is a guy he must want conventional sexy ladies fight over him. Well, Rajkumar is a mature, ambitious, hard working man. He dreams of success & loves the one and only woman in his life. Haha!!
He is marred by neither the boyish stupidity nor the toxic masculinity.
