Menaka Irani, the mother of Farah Khan and Sajid Khan, passed away in Mumbai. She was experiencing health problems and had just celebrated her birthday.
The late Menaka Irani was the mother of directors Sajid Khan and Farah Khan. She was seventy-nine. The devastating information was released a few days after Farah disclosed on Instagram that her mother had undergone “multiple surgeries.” We anticipate further information.
Farah’s post about mom
On July 12, Farah celebrated her birthday by giving her mother two pictures and a heartfelt letter praising her fortitude. She acknowledged that she had been taking her mother “for granted” and that she wished she had more strength so they could “start fighting.” “We all take our mothers for granted… especially me!” she captioned the photo.
Farah said, “This last month has been a revelation on how much i lov my mom Menka.. she’s been the strongest, bravest person iv ever seen.. sense of humor intact even after multiple surgeries.” The family endured a difficult few weeks, she shared. Mom, happy birthday! It’s a nice day to return home ♥️ I can’t wait for you to get strong enough to engage in combat with me once more. I cherish you.”
On his mother’s birthday, Sajid Khan, Farah’s brother, also posted a picture of himself with Menaka and Farah. “Happy Birthday, Mommy,” he wrote.
When Farah’s mom wasn’t keen on her marriage
Actor Daisy Irani and screenwriter Honey Irani’s sister was Menaka Irani. Her niece and nephew are the filmmakers Zoya and Farhan Akhtar. With their father dead, Menaka raised Farah and Sajid by herself.
Farah had mentioned in a previous interview that her mother had threatened to divorce her if she didn’t marry before turning 22. In an earlier interview this year, Farah told the Nova IVF Fertility YouTube channel that she had always been a “work-oriented person” and that becoming a mother and wife wasn’t on her mid-life path while she was in her 20s. However, she stated that she had considered getting married when she was 22 years old, despite her family’s advice to the contrary.
“I was not thinking about marriage at all,” she stated. I guess I imagined I would get married when I was 22 or something, but my family is strange. They gathered and threatened to throw you out of the family if you got married so early and didn’t do anything in life. Thus, they behaved exactly in opposition to what a typical parent would do. I’ll kick you out of the home, my mother said. Your life must be made meaningful. Financial independence is a prerequisite for marriage.
