Choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan’s New Zealand vacation took an unexpected and humorous turn when her cook Dilip and his manager Kim became the stars of a playful mock wedding during the group’s visit to Auckland.
The light-hearted moment unfolded at Velskov, a native forest farm near Auckland, as the group wrapped up their international trip. Farah, along with Dilip and Kim, had earlier visited popular locations including Hobbiton and Waimauku town before reaching the farm, India Today has reported.
While a chef prepared a meal using freshly harvested vegetables, Farah proposed a fun activity that quickly turned into a mock wedding ceremony. Dilip and Kim were asked to take seven pheras around a wooden stove. Declaring the ceremony complete, Farah said, “Congratulations, now you are both married,” as quoted by India Today.
Kim laughed throughout the impromptu ritual, while Dilip appeared visibly startled by the situation and exclaimed, “No!” Farah brushed off his protest, saying, “Not no, it’s a yes! You took seven pheras around this wooden stove.” Embracing the moment, Kim said, “I am so happy!”, India Today has quoted.
Adding to the drama, Farah told Kim, “Kim, welcome to India. You are now an Indian bride.” Kim enthusiastically responded, “I am so happy to be married to an Indian star.” The moment quickly shifted when Farah clarified, “No, he is already married with three children,” leaving Kim visibly disappointed, as quoted by India Today.
The banter continued as the group sat down to eat. Farah teased Dilip again, saying, “Your wife is watching everything. You married a foreigner in New Zealand.” As Kim and Dilip fed each other on camera, Farah remarked, “Raja babu ko dekh lo (Look at Raja Babu)!”, as quoted by India Today.
The fun-filled trip carried on to SkyCity, where Dilip and Farah’s manager, Kalp, went bungee jumping. Before Dilip took the leap, Farah joked, “Do you want to say anything to your wife? Do you want to tell her to go ahead and marry someone else?” Dilip replied casually, “Sure, bye-bye!” Farah then warned the instructor, “Please be careful, I only have one cook.”
As the journey came to an end, Farah reflected on the experience, saying, “Our trip to New Zealand has come to an end. Auckland was beautiful, this was the start of a beautiful friendship and the end of another special one,” India Today has quoted.
In a final emotional moment, Kim handed Dilip a yellow rose and said, “Dilip, I will miss you so much. It was so good filming with you.” A confused Dilip turned to Farah and asked, “What’s she saying?”
Farah replied, “Kim is saying that now you’ll have to stay with her, right here, as you two are married now,” as quoted by India Today.
Dilip quickly walked away, thanking Kim, bringing the playful episode to a fittingly comic close.
