Shahrukh Khan gift a book on baby names to Farah Khan
SRK does some name hunting for pregnant Farah.
We have heard of Karan Johar going shopping in London department stores to buy maternity clothes for Farah Khan, but a better gift came the pregnant ace Bollywood choreographer’s way from best friend Shah Rukh Khan. No, it isn’t the new car he recently gifted her, that was to compliment her on the success of Om Shanti Om.
The Bollywood Badshah’s gift for the mother-to-be was a book on baby names! Farah was floored when SRK, the father of Aryan (10) and Suhana (7), came back from one of his London trips with the book. "It’s probably one of his sweetest gestures," said Farah. "But," she cracked up into laughter, "the big joke is the book has only English names like John, George, and James. The book is by a London publisher and would naturally have only English names. When I pointed this out to Shah Rukh, he was confused, and sweetly apologetic. He was like, ‘What to do, I got what I found,’" added Farah.
Their friendship goes back to Dil Se when Farah made SRK dance on top of a moving train to Malaika Arora’s swaying hips and the tune of Chhaiya Chhaiya. And it has grown steadily over the years. Farah and her editor-director husband Shirish Kunder are gearing up for parenthood. And part of it is choosing names for the triplets she is expecting. "I know people are joking about names and I have received suggestions like Om Shanti Om and Amar Akbar Anthony! But we haven’t ascertained the sex of the babies. So it’s futile to zero in on any names as yet as the permutations and combinations of boys and girls can get too messy. We are not religious, so we will choose neutral names, it’s not a big issue," said Farah.
Yes, but John, George and James are ruled out!
