Deepika Padukone and Farah Khan have made it to the headlines after the news of them unfollowing each other on Instagram came out. This had come after the filmmaker took a dig at her 8-hour working shift demand for the second time in her vlog. Now, Khan has exclusively spoken to Pinkvilla and reacted to the entire fiasco, revealing that they were not following each other earlier, too.
Talking to Pinkvilla, she said, “To begin with, we were not following each other earlier, too!! We had made a pact during the Happy New Year shoot that we wouldn’t communicate on Instagram; instead, direct message and call. We don’t even wish birthday wishes on Insta because Deepika doesn’t like it. Also, my 8-hour comment wasn’t a dig; it was to make Dilip say that he will now also work 8 hours when he actually works just for 2 hours!”
Farah further added, “No one even knows I was one of the first few people who went to see Deepika when Dua was born, not everything is done for Instagram and paps.”
She concluded by saying, “This new trend of making anything into a fake controversy has to stop!! Last week, it was that Karan and I ignored Aayush on the red carpet, when in reality we had just met him down before coming up!! It can genuinely cause problems between people; thankfully, I pick up the phone and call them before it gets worse! But people need to stop doing this!”
Recently, when Farah Khan visited Rohit Saraf’s house where her cook Dilip asked her when they would visit Deepika Padukone’s house. To this, the filmmaker replied that she only shoots for 8 hours now and doesn’t have time to come on their vlog.
