Boman Irani on Shirin Farhad: “Some Stories Stay With You”
It’s been 13 years since the beloved romantic comedy Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi first captured hearts across the country, and today, the cast and crew celebrate the film’s enduring charm, humor, and emotional resonance.
Reflecting on the journey, actor Boman Irani, who played the endearing Farhad Pastakia, shared a heartfelt tribute:
“Some films are special because of the character, some because of the people — and Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi was both. Becoming Farhad, teaming up with Shirin aka Farah Khan, and having Bela Bhansali Sehgal directing us made it an unforgettable journey. A film full of comedy and a whole lot of heart. What a joy to celebrate it again today!”
Directed by Bela Bhansali Sehgal, the film brought together an unlikely yet unforgettable onscreen pairing of Boman Irani and Farah Khan in her acting debut. With its warm portrayal of love later in life and its slice-of-life humor, the film became a cult favorite and remains a standout in Indian romantic comedies.
As fans share their favorite moments and revisit the film across platforms, the team behind Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi is reminded that great storytelling — especially when infused with heart and humor — stands the test of time
