"I said it's (casting Farah) a great idea. I went home and told Zenobia (Boman's wife) and she said 'What a fantastic idea! Boman, if this is the casting, you must do this film just because of the casting'," the 52-year-old said here.
Talking about their chemistry in the film, Farah said: "I think we are comfortable with each other and we look good together."
She took a quick dig at Boman, saying: "At least, I look good and you because of me. I helped you to look good also you helped me act better and our comic timings are also good."
Directed by Bela Sehgal, "Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi", a love story between two 40-plus individuals, hits theatres Friday.
