B-Town is a Boy’s club: Farah Khan
Filmmaker Farah Khan said that her 2010 film failure make her see the real friends faces in the industry. Farah said that she realised that the film industry is filled with fair-weather friends when certain people celebrated the failure of her film, Tees Maar Khan. The film starred Akshay Kumar in the lead role, and marked the first time Farah didn’t collaborate with Shah Rukh Khan on a project.
“I don’t know if people’s perception to me changed but they definitely took a lot of joy in Tees Maar Khan not doing well. There was glee and there was ‘Oh thank god this one didn’t do well.’ That’s when I realised that you know it is a boys’ club and they don’t want a little girl, or a big girl, in it.”
She added that the film’s failure taught her to be kinder. “It taught me a lesson that you have to be kinder because Karma is a b*tch”, said Farah.
