Farah Khan directs Kolkata Knight Riders Ad

Farah Khan completed a song picturised on Salman
Khan and Preity Zinta for Main Aur Mrs Khanna while the next day she directed a
30-second promotional video on the Kolkata Knight Riders. The video was
picturised on Shahrukh Khan, Sourav Ganguly, Murali Kartik and Ajit Agarkar at
the BPCL Sports Club in Chembur on Friday.

Says a source, “Last year, Shahrukh had a music video (directed by Ganesh
Hegde) where he had roped in Bappi Lahiri to compose the songs. SRK had himself
featured in it. Shahrukh had rendered a song while Usha Uthup had sung another
with the theme being Korbo, Lorbo, Jeetbo Re. But this year, SRK has decided to
do away with the music video promos of KKR completely as of now.”

Farah directed the latest 30-second talkie video on the three cricketers of
Kolkata Knight Riders, Ganguly, Murali and Agarkar and Shahrukh last Saturday at
Chembur. SRK wore KKR’s No 12 jersey while Sourav sported No 1. Ganguly came to
Mumbai at 9 am on Saturday and for the hush-hush shoot. The video was shot in a
day.”

Farah says, “I directed the video on Shahrukh, Sourav, Murali and Ajit. It
was fun shooting with all of them. Sourav, Shahrukh and we discussed our
children including tips on how to bring them up. I know Sourav from before as I
had directed him in an ad earlier. “
