Farah Khan responds to Arjun and Anshula Kapoor calling cook Dileep the star of her vlogs, joking she’s the ‘star-maker’ who launched Rakhi Sawant and Deepika Padukone.
Farah Khan Visits Arjun and Anshula Kapoor for Latest Vlog.
Farah Khan’s cooking vlogs have become a delightful mix of food, friendship, and Bollywood banter. In her latest episode, she visited siblings Arjun Kapoor and Anshula Kapoor, bringing along her ever-popular cook, Dileep. Known for his charm and quick wit, Dileep didn’t just cook — he entertained, even dancing with Arjun in the middle of the episode.
As the banter flowed, both Arjun and Anshula playfully declared Dileep to be the “main star” of the vlog. Farah, never one to miss a beat, rolled her eyes and quipped, “I am the star-maker, what do I do? Rakhi Sawant, then Deepika [Padukone], and now…” — leaving the sentence hanging with an unmistakable nod toward Dileep.
The Origin of Farah’s Cooking Vlogs
During the episode, Arjun asked Farah how the idea for her YouTube channel began. Farah revealed that she initially planned it as a pure cooking vlog, but soon realised it was too much work alone. Bringing Dileep onboard provided not just culinary help but also a dynamic presence for on-screen banter.
“The first vlog clicked, and by the second vlog we had a silver button,” Farah said, crediting the unique blend of cooking, celebrity appearances, and humour for the channel’s rapid success.
When Anshula reiterated, “But Dileep is the star!” and Arjun added, “Sorry to inform you!”, Dileep joined in the fun, answering rapid-fire questions. When asked who he preferred in Gunday — Ranveer Singh or Arjun Kapoor — he diplomatically, and perhaps strategically, picked Arjun.
Farah Khan: From Bollywood Debuts to YouTube Star-Maker
Farah’s “star-maker” comment isn’t just a joke — it’s rooted in her career. She cast Rakhi Sawant in Main Hoon Na and launched Deepika Padukone opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om. Now, with her vlogs, she’s inadvertently given Dileep a fan following of his own.
Since starting the vlogs in 2024, Farah and Dileep have visited multiple celebrity homes, cooking meals and sharing candid conversations. The format has evolved into a web series-style show loved for its authenticity and humour, proving Farah’s knack for blending entertainment with relatability — whether in films or on YouTube.
