A character modelled on the choreographer-director features in her former assistant Kanika Dhillon's first book, Bombay Duck Is A Fish

Farah Khan features as a fictional character in Bombay Duck Is A Fish, a book being penned by Kanika Dhillon. Dhillon is one of the screenplay/ dialogue writers of Ra.One, the upcoming Shah Rukh Khan flick.

The author's connection to FK isn't just via SRK, she also assisted Farah during Om Shanti Om.

Says a source, "During OSO, Kanika had an opportunity to observe the choreographer-director from close quarters. When she began writing the book, she couldn't help but sketch a character around her."

Though Farah knows about the book, she isn't particularly aware of the storyline. "Yes, I know Kanika has written a book.

She has told me about it. But I am not aware that there is a character based on me. The character better be flattering as I was an extremely good boss to her," she quips.

While Kanika says, "I don't want to give too much away right now. But many characters have been inspired by real life people in my book and of course Farah has always been a mentor and an inspiration."

FACT
Kanika also pens Shah Rukh Khan's favourite line in Ra.One. It goes: 'Some superheroes wear a mask, this one wears a heart'.
