Shah Rukh Khan asks Farah Khan to apologise to him, "In 30 years of directing me, you haven't..."

Social media has found its newest hero in Dilip – Farah Khan’s beloved cook, who once again managed to steal the spotlight with his quirky moves. Known for popping up in Farah’s fun Instagram reels, Dilip has now taken his dance talent to the next level by grooving to Badli Si Hawa, the freshly released track from Aryan Khan’s debut series The Ba**ds of Bollywood*.

Farah shared the hilarious clip on her Instagram, where Dilip can be seen giving his own spin to the hook steps of the song while the rest of the kitchen staff look on in amusement. With her signature wit, Farah captioned the video apologising to Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan, and Aryan for Dilip’s “enthusiasm” and joking that the song is just too catchy for him to resist.

But what turned the fun reel into a viral sensation was Shah Rukh Khan’s response. The superstar, who often delights fans with his witty remarks during his popular #AskSRK sessions on X (formerly Twitter), spotted the video and gave it his royal seal of approval. Reposting Farah’s clip, SRK cheekily wrote, “You should apologise, because in 30 years of directing me, you haven’t given me any dance steps as wonderful as what Dilip is doing??!! Still love you.”

The moment couldn’t have come at a better time, as excitement around Aryan Khan’s much-awaited show The Ba**ds of Bollywood* is already building up. The satirical series, co-created by Aryan along with Bilal Siddiqui and Manav Chauhan, takes a witty yet sharp look at the Hindi film industry.

Featuring Lakshay and Sahher Bamba in the lead roles, it also boasts an ensemble cast including Manoj Pahwa, Raghav Juyal, Bobby Moha Singh, Manish Chaudhari, Anya Singh, Gautami Kapoor, and more. Produced under Red Chillies Entertainment, the show will premiere on Netflix on September 18.

With Dilip’s infectious dance moves, Farah’s playful humour, SRK’s witty nod, and Aryan’s promising debut, it looks like The Ba**ds of Bollywood* has already captured the audience’s imagination even before its release.
