Time and again choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan has revealed that actress Shilpa Shirodkar was offered the popular song 'Chhaiya Chhaiya' opposite Shah Rukh Khan. However, she was rejected for the song due to her weight. Now, filmmaker Farah Khan wishes to make amends to it by offering Shirodkar a chance to dance if ever a remake to Chhaiya Chhaiya is made. The popular song from the film Dil Se went on to feature Malaika Arora dancing atop a moving train with SRK. 

Farah Khan feels guilty about rejecting Shilpa Shirodkar

Recently, Farah Khan visited Bigg Boss 18 contestant Shilpa Shirodkar at her home. The filmmaker who makes vlogs for her YouTube channel along with her cook Dilip visited Shirodkar with the same intention. In these series of vlogs, Khan visits celebrities in Mumbai and invades their kitchen and gets them to cook their favourite recipes. While talking to Shirodkar, she revisited her past decision to reject the actress for Dil Se’s iconic song. She humorously admitted in a vlog that she felt Shilpa was “100 kilos" and questioned how she would fit on the train. However, in the new vlog, Farah playfully made amends, promising her a spot in Chhaiya Chhaiya 2—if the song ever gets remade.
