Farah Khan uncovered, “Towards the end. Till Dabang you all were fine. Then I also saw the difference.” To which Malaika replied, “I also remember very few people actually said that to me. You, Karan (Johar), very few people actually said that to me. They actually turned around and said, ‘You know what? Irrespective. We love you. Whatever the situation may be, whatever it may be, we love you’. I will never forget that. I will always. I feel happy.” Malaika was in tears and Farah consoled her.
