Farah Khan Reunites With Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 Winner Manisha Rani For 'Dabba Andolan'

Farah Khan is back with yet another funny video, and this time, she’s joined by none other than Manisha Rani. In the recently shared footage, Farah receives much-needed support from Manisha for her “Dabba Wapasi Andolan” campaign. The video captures Manisha backing Farah, who’s visibly frustrated with individuals failing to return her lunchboxes. As Farah struggles to be heard on this issue, Manisha steps up as her spokesperson, adding humour to the situation.

The fun begins with Manisha’s playful inquiry, “You guys don’t return her lunchbox? What kind of people are you? Please return her lunchboxes, and don’t just return them empty,” Farah interrupts, insisting, “No, no, empty works.” Manisha, in agreement, adds, “Yes, sometimes after filling them, they still don’t return it, and the lunchbox doesn’t come back either.” The video concludes with both chanting, “Return our lunchboxes.” Sharing the video, Farah wrote in the caption, “Maybe ul will listen to her!! My spokeswoman for the Dabba Wapasi Andolan.”

Among the many reactions, musician Vishal Dadlani dropped a witty comment, “Pehle aap khaana toh bhejo!! The whole film industry gets food from you, but not your one vegetarian friend.”

Meanwhile, netizens flooded the comment section with love for their bonding. One user wrote, “What a collab!” while another user commented, “When can we have your dabba.”

Previously, Farah uploaded a video featuring Shiv Thakare, Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia and her brother Sajid Khan. In the video, Farah tells Shiv he was her favourite on the show instead of her brother Sajid. However, their cheerful banter takes a serious turn as Nimrit and Sajid arrive.

Manisha Rani made her debut on Indian television in Dance India Dance Season 5, where she was eliminated in the first round. Following this, she landed a small role in the &TV series Gudiya Hamari Sabhi Pe Bhari in 2020. However, she gained recognition by participating in Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 in 2023 and secured the position of second runner-up. In 2024, she made a comeback as a wild-card contestant on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 and clinched the winner’s title for the season.

Meanwhile, Farah Khan remains a formidable force in Bollywood. She has helmed several blockbuster films, including Main Hoon Na, Om Shanti Om and many more. She’s also been a judge on numerous reality shows, including Indian Idol (first and second seasons), Just Dance and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11, among others.
