It was in 2004 when Bollywood’s ace choreographer, Farah Khan, got married to her long-time love, Shirish Kunder. Farah lost her mother, Menaka Irani, on July 26, 2024, and it looks like her mom-in-law, Geetanjali Kunder has been her biggest pillar of support. However, for Farah, who is a Muslim, being married in a South Indian home was not easy. The choreographer, who is famous for her vlogs, recently shared how her mother-in-law expected her to grind spices in a traditional stone.
Farah Khan shares her mother-in-law was upset as she used a mixer to grind masalas
When Farah was a newly married bahu in the Kunder household, her mother-in-law expected Farah to grind masalas with her hands on a traditional stone and not use the mixer. Farah had visited TV actress, Karishma Tanna’s home and shared how her maa-in-law once taunted her for not making the masalas on the stone. Farah shared:
“Once my mother-in-law told me, grind these masalas manually, using grinding stones. Don’t grind them in the mixer. I was like, ‘Kiske paas itna time hai bhai?”
Karishma was left shocked by the bold response of Farah who shared that her mom-in-lawe felt that those masalas make food taste good especially when grinded on a stone. Farah had said to her that the masalas tasted good either way irrespective of being grinded on a stone or in a mixer.
Farah Khan shares that her mother-in-law does not get food for her
Farah who is getting a lot of fame for her hosting and roasting skills on Celebrity Masterchef, had called popular TV actress, Hina Khan and her boyfriend, Rocky Jaiswal on the sets of the cooking reality show. She had spoken to them and shared that her mother-in-law had never cooked for me. She only brings food for her son. She gets idiyappam, coconut-based chicken, idli chutney, and all those things, but not for the choreographer. Farah then, in a joking way, shared that her maa-in-law would watch this episode and call and say that she does not feed her food as the choreographer does not like it.
When Farah Khan touched the feet of her mother-in-law
Farah also cribbed to Hina and Rocky that her mother-in-law being a Mangalorean needed coconut in everything. There was an old clip where she was seen making Mangalorean fish curry for Farah who was seen touching her MIL’s feet. She also shared that she never touches the feet of her MIL when the camera is not off and shared that now she does not have a choice but to do the same. Farah was also equally close to her mom and shared in the clip:
“My mom was a very unique person.. never wanted the limelight or any fuss around her.. despite the hard knocks she faced in her early life she was a rare one who had no bitterness or envy towards anyone. Everyone who met her loved her and realised where we get our sense of humour from. Well hardly.. she was far wittier and funny than both sajid and I put together.”
What do you think of Farah Khan’s reaction to her maa-in-law who told her to grind ‘masalas’ on a stone?
