Bela Sehgal doesn`t rule out `Shirin Farhad…` sequel

Bela Sehgal doesn`t rule out `Shirin Farhad...` sequel
Debutant director Bela Sehgal is all smiles in regards to the response to her movie "Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi", and says she doesn't rule out creating a sequel to the romantic comedy.

"You never know I WOULD make an element two as well," Sehgal, sister of filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, told reporters here Saturday.

"Shirin Farhad...", released Friday, features Boman Irani opposite choreographer-director Farah Khan, who has made her acting debut with the project. They play two 40-plus individuals in love, and their on screen chemistry is being loved.

Farah, who says she is going to never act again, is happy.

"All the shows yesterday were full and today they are also doing so well. Persons are loving the film. It is a very cute film and nobody cannot like it," she said.

The new actress says she has received many compliments for her performance, but it surely was Sridevi's words which were very encouraging.

"When Sridevi told me that she didn't even feel once that I USED TO BE acting, it was very surreal for me," she said.

The toughest scene for Farah appeared to was an emotional scene where she breaks up all ties with Boman within the film.

"The get a divorce scene was the hardest for me. I DID NOT want it to appear filmy. In fact, Bela had told me to not even take a look at Boman though out the shot," said Farah, who says she have been approached by an organization for endorsements.

Farah believes the USP of the movie lies within the undeniable fact that this is a love story between a middle-aged couple.

"People just like the film for that reason reason. If the similar love story was between a 20-year-old girl and a 25-year-old boy, then they might have found nothing new. The film talks about how there is not any age for romance or marriage," she said.

Boman agreed with Farah, and said: "Farah and i've great chemistry. So only complimenting me isn't good enough, it's a must to talk about either one of us together."
