New Delhi: Shahid Kapoor has finally addressed the growing speculation around his wife Mira Rajput potentially making her Bollywood debut, following filmmaker Farah Khan’s public praise and on-camera offer during a recent YouTube vlog.
The moment unfolded in Farah Khan’s vlog when Mira accompanied Shahid for the shoot. As soon as Mira entered the apartment, Farah was visibly impressed by her effortless glamour and fitness. In her trademark playful style, the filmmaker complimented Mira’s screen presence and joked that she looked every bit like a leading lady. Farah even went a step further, offering her a role on the spot, saying, “Mira, you can become a heroine. Do a role in my film.”
While Mira blushed at the comment, she politely declined the offer, sparking fresh curiosity online about whether she might consider acting in the future.
