Now, she is so confident, so poised and in command, whereas at that time she was like a lost lamb”. We had such a blast making a movie,” says the filmmaker, adding, “One of the most important memories was that it was Deepika’s launch where she was completely raw and new. It doesn’t feel like 15 years have gone by because our memories are so fresh. “I still feel like we just made it last year. It was the launch vehicle for Deepika Padukone, she conceived her kids during the making of the film, the film won the clash war with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya, with the filmmaker crediting the movie for starting the six-pack-ab chapter in Shah Rukh’s career. The film is special for Farah for many reasons. Even Sholay didn’t win an award for dialogues”. It didn’t win a single award for dialogues. The 57-year-old continues, “People use the dialogues from the film in everyday life, be ‘Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost’ or ‘Itni Shiddat’ or ‘Ek chutki sindoor’. Because all the dialogues from the film have become cult,” Farah tells us while looking back at the making of the story which came with reincarnation twist in a filmy way. And it just shows how idiotic these awards are. “My only thing is that Om Shanti Om should have won every award for its dialogues, but that didn’t happen. But there is one thing which disturbs her some days, which is that the dialogues of the Shah Rukh Khan-Deepika Padukone starrer didn’t get the credit they deserved. It’s been 15 years since Farah Khan penned a love letter to Bollywood with Om Shanti Om, and the director is proud of the film’s journey.
