Farah Khan Slams Paparazzi Page Over Fake Fire News About Her Mumbai Residence

Filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan was recently at the centre of an online scare after a paparazzi page shared a video of a fire in a Mumbai building, claiming it was her residence. The video, which surfaced on Sunday, November 8, coinciding with Diwali, left several fans concerned about her safety. Farah has now responded to the post, calling out the page for spreading misleading information without verifying the details.

Farah Khan Clarifies Viral Fire Video Was Not From Her Building

Taking to Instagram, Farah Khan reshared the paparazzi page's post on her Story and clarified that the building seen in the video was still under construction. Expressing her displeasure over the misleading claim, she wrote, “Online portals plss BE RESPONSIBLE!! This is an under- construction building!! Clickbait can’t be everything!"

Her clarification put an end to speculation about a possible fire at her Mumbai residence. Fans were relieved to learn that Farah and her family were safe. The filmmaker lives at Oberoi Sky Heights in Lokhandwala, Mumbai, but the visuals shared online were not from her building.

The incident has also brought attention to the responsibility of paparazzi pages and online portals when reporting potentially alarming developments. A video shared without proper verification can quickly create unnecessary panic, particularly when it involves a public figure's home and family.
