<p>Destiny played a major role in Farah Khan turning heroine with 'Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi'.<br /><br /></p>.<p>When Farah was offered the role by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, she took it casually and said yes thinking the film would never go on floors.<br /><br />However, she was surprised when Bhansali reverted to her with the exact plan and shooting schedule.<br /><br />"I had no wish to become an actress though I had done a cameo or two here and there. When Sanjay first told me about the film, I was surprised. I said yes thinking no one will fund where Boman (Irani) was the hero and I was the heroine. I thought the film would never go on floors," Farah told PTI.<br /><br />But once she was in, Farah was sure that Bhansali and his sister Bela Seghal, who is turning director with the film, will make a nice movie.<br /><br />"I am someone who is totally unlike a heroine. Even in the parties, I may just put a lip gloss by mistake but that's about it. In fact, photo shoots make me die. But I knew that since Sanjay was the producer, he would make a quality movie. Also, I knew that his sister wanted to make this movie for years so she would put her life to make it happen."<br /><br />Boman Irani's presence as a co-star helped Farah feel comfortable about the film. Farah knew that she could trust him to pull her out of tricky situations if she ever got stuck.<br /><br />"Because of Boman being the hero, there was a definite comfort factor. We have been friends for so many years so I knew that as an on-screen 'jodi' we could not go wrong. Boman has this positive energy that makes things comfortable."<br /><br />Meanwhile Farah is currently busy promoting two of her films. While in 'Shirin Farhad...' she would be seen as an actress, she has also produced 'Joker' which releases exactly a week later on August 31.<br /><br />"I am looking after the promotion of 'Joker' though everything else from the scratch to the final copy is being taken care of by Shirish. All that I have done during the making is choreograph the songs and then work with artists for their dates. I was the human resources manager for the film," she said.</p>
