Renowned filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan Kunder has earned widespread praise online after revealing that she has sponsored the education of her longtime cook Dilip’s children. Speaking during an episode of her YouTube cooking show, Farah shared that her cook’s children have now been admitted to an English-medium school, and one of them has also been enrolled in a culinary diploma program.

The revelation came during a casual conversation at actor Shalin Bhanot’s home, where Farah was filming a new episode of her show. While speaking to Shalin’s mother, she said, “Because our show is working, I’ve put Dilip’s kids into an English-medium school. One of them is also doing a culinary diploma so that they don’t have to work in homes but can instead work in good restaurants or big hotels.”

Dilip, who hails from Darbhanga, Bihar, has been working for Farah for over two decades and has become a beloved figure among fans of her YouTube show. Known for his quick wit and no-nonsense style, he frequently appears in episodes alongside Bollywood celebrities like Kajol, Malaika Arora, and Vijay Varma.

Farah added, “Dilip has fed so many people. Now he is getting his karma. He has built a three-storey, six-bedroom house in his village and even owns land and cattle.” She also jokingly recalled how Dilip once asked fans to subscribe so he could build a swimming pool.

While the gesture itself drew appreciation from viewers, it also attracted attention from public figures. Union Minister Smriti Irani acknowledged Farah’s efforts on her Instagram Stories, writing: “Take a bow @farahkhankunder. God bless you.”
