Farah Khan Ali, the well-known jewellery designer and sister of Sussanne Khan, has finally spoken about the long-standing rumours linking her to Bollywood actor Bobby Deol. In a recent interview, she opened up about their teenage connection, setting the record straight on what really happened between them decades ago. She also addressed speculation involving actress Neelam Kothari and shared how her bond with Bobby and his wife Tanya Deol remains strong today.
Farah Khan Ali Recalls Teenage Connection with Bobby Deol
Farah Khan Ali, daughter of veteran actor Sanjay Khan and the late Zarine Khan, sat down for an interview with Vickey Lalwani where she spoke honestly about her past with Bobby Deol. She described their relationship as an innocent teenage connection that happened around 40 years ago when life was very different from today.
“We were childhood sweethearts. I had a massive crush on him. He had a massive crush on me. And that’s it. I mean, nothing. We held hands. We wrote letters to each other. That’s it.”
Farah made it clear that what they shared was not dating in the way people understand it now. She was 16 years old at the time, and Bobby was 17. Their bond was simple and sweet, limited to holding hands and exchanging letters. She stressed that those days were different and that teenage relationships today are not the same as they were four decades ago.
No Breakup Drama, Says Farah Khan Ali
For years, rumours suggested that Neelam Kothari came between Farah and Bobby, causing their relationship to end. Farah strongly denied these claims. She said Neelam entered Bobby’s life after her own teenage bond with him had already ended.
“That’s not true at all. Neelam is my dearest friend. She came in Bobby’s life after Bobby and me. So, it wasn’t like she broke us up. So, I would not agree with that.”
Farah added that she and Neelam have always been close friends and that there was never any misunderstanding or conflict between them. She described herself as a blunt person who speaks honestly and has no regrets about anything in her life.
Bobby Deol and Neelam Kothari were in a relationship for nearly five years before Bobby made his Bollywood debut. They parted ways amicably in the early 1990s. Neelam had earlier shared that she was the one who ended the relationship because she was unsure about the lifestyle of a star wife.
Farah Khan Ali Says Bobby Deol and Tanya Deol Are Like Family
Despite their teenage romance ending long ago, Farah revealed that she and Bobby have remained extremely close over the years. She also shares a warm bond with his wife, Tanya Deol.
“Probably today he is one of my closest friends, and so is Tanya, his wife, whom I adore from the bottom of my heart.”
Farah recalled that Bobby and Tanya attended the launch of her jewellery store. She said their relationship has grown far beyond the past and that they are like family to her.
“They’re family to me, and there’s nothing I would not do for both of them. I’m so happy that they found each other because they’re perfect for each other.”
Farah added that her connection with Bobby and Tanya goes beyond her old teenage bond with the actor, and both of them continue to be an important part of her life.
