Farah Khan Offers Cyrus Broacha Dilip’s Spot After Fraud Jibe
Farah Khan's cheeky comeback after Cyrus Broacha called her cook Dilip a 'fraud' and 'overrated' has fans taking sides—and Dilip's fan base is not budging.

Farah Khan didn’t let Cyrus Broacha’s verdict on her cook Dilip go unanswered. After the comedian called Dilip a “fraud” and “overrated” in a conversation with actor Shantanu Anam, Farah posted a playful response: “Cyrus I can replace him with you.” Cyrus fired back with a question that suggested he might actually show up: “Kal se aaun?”
The jibe that started it
Cyrus made his feelings clear in the clip. He said Dilip irritates him, appears to be acting all the time now, and that he enjoyed only the first couple of appearances before deciding Dilip “looks like a fraud” to him. He also claimed Farah feeds Dilip lines and questioned whether Dilip’s heart is in it.
Shantanu Anam defended the cook, saying he was probably the only person in the world who doesn’t like Dilip and calling him “lovable and sweet.” Farah’s reaction, meanwhile, turned the criticism into a job offer.
Fans are split over the exchange
The back-and-forth quickly drew reactions. Some viewers liked the idea of a crossover episode and wanted Cyrus to join one of Farah’s vlogs. Others warned that if Cyrus joined, “everyone will stop watching for sure.” One fan made the stakes plain: “No Cyrus, you are not eligible. No one can replace Dilip.”
Not everyone was amused with Farah’s light touch. A critic in the comments asked if she was mad and said she should have taken a stand for Dilip instead of joking. The split shows how much ownership Farah’s audience feels over the people in her vlogs.
Why Dilip’s popularity matters
Dilip is not just a cook in the background. What began as cooking segments at celebrity homes has grown into a vlog format built on food, celebrity conversations and the comic timing between Farah and Dilip. His candid remarks and reactions to guests often become talking points of their own.
That visibility has translated into real-world results:
- Dilip landed an ad opportunity alongside Shah Rukh Khan.
- In November 2025, Farah said she used a year of YouTube earnings to help Dilip clear a substantial debt.
- The channel’s success also supported his son’s culinary education and helped Dilip build a house in his hometown.
That arc is the larger story here. A vlog sidekick—someone in a creator’s orbit who wins the audience through personality—can become a draw, a brand, and a livelihood. When someone like Cyrus dismisses Dilip, it doesn’t just read as a joke; it reads as a challenge to why fans tune in.
What happens next
There’s no confirmation that Cyrus will actually take Farah up on the offer, but the door is now open for a vlog cameo that many fans say they’d watch. If he does appear, the real test will be whether he can hold his own opposite Dilip—the internet favourite he just called overrated.
