Farah Khan recalls Farhan`s academic side
During the episode, Farah recollected the incident when Farhan scored poorly in his exams, and was finding it difficult to get an admission in a good college.
She said in the video, “His marks were very poor. And the principal said, ‘I’m giving you the admission because of Javed Akhtar sahab, but honestly, he doesn’t deserve to be in this college’”.
Farhan chipped in as he said, “And I proved her absolutely correct”.
Farah said, “We were all feeling very bad. Your dad was so upset. We were crossing Marine Drive, thinking Faran must also be feeling terrible. And then Faran said, ‘Can I have Anand ka masala milk?’ Dude, your dad got so upset. Didn’t you realise how it sounded, that you were asking for masala milk?”.
Farhan then said, “Actually, I was not interested in college at all”.
