Who would have thought that Farhan Akhtar's directorial debut's script was written after his mother threatened to throw him out of the house. Not only did Dil Chahta Hai kickstart Farhan's career in Bollywood, it also went on to attain a cult status and became one of the most loved movies of Bollywood. Farhan Akhtar, son of renowned lyricists and writer Javed Akhtar and his first wife Honey Irani, is an all-rounder - he is a director, writer, producer, actor, lyricist, singer, and a television host. Since then Farhan has directed and acted in several successful movies including Lakshya (2004), Rock On!! (2008), and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011).
