Farah Khan recently lashed out at a troll after a video of her and Karan Johar allegedly ignoring Salman Khan’s brother-in-law and Arpita Sharma’s husband, Aayush Sharma, at the Homebound premiere went viral. Farah commented on the video and asked trolls to “stop writing nonsense.”

The video shows Aayush posing for the paparazzi at Karan’s film Homebound premiere. Then we see Farah and Karan, who have been friends for years, holding hands and walking to the red carpet to pose for the media. The duo are seen crossing Aayush and didn’t greet him as they looked busy having a conversation.

Farah responded in the comments section and wrote how she didn’t see Aayush. She wrote, “Pls stop writing nonsense.. i can never ignore anyone.. least of all Ayush.. just shot a vlog with him n Arpita.. just didn’t see him in all the rush.. making it slow motion just to make it look bad?🤷🏻‍♀️”.

At the Homebound premiere, Farah and Karan were seen having a lot of fun. While posing for the media, Karan Johar even teased Farah and said, “I want to say no one is more popular than Dilip. Dilip zyada aage nahi chala gaeya? (Didn’t Dilip went ahead?)” To this, Farah jokingly asked, “What about me?” Karan quickly quipped back, “No, no.”

Four months ago, Farah visited Arpita and Aayush’s home in Mumbai. During the interview, Farah showcased the couple’s massive luxurious apartment in Bandra, Mumbai. Farah’s now-famous cook Dilip even quipped, “The lift is bigger than my entire room.” Aayush also cooked Himachali mutton with Farah and Dilip in the vlog.

Later in the vlog, Arpita and Aayush spoke about how they fell for each other. Aayush said, “When I first saw her, she was sitting at a table at a restaurant, and ordering something. Her legs were dangling in the air. I thought she was very cute. She’s like a coconut. She has a tough exterior but a soft interior. When she came to my house for the first time, I learned about allergies for the first time. She got my curtains changed.”
