Farah Khan Reveals Massive YouTube Earnings Surpassing Her Film Career
Farah Khan reveals her YouTube channel now out-earns years of her film career.
Choreographer and Filmmaker Farah Khan has revealed that her YouTube Channel has become a major source of income, surpassing what she has earned in many years of her film career. In a candid conversation with Soha Ali Khan on her podcast, Farah shared that after persistent encouragement from her team, she decided to start her YouTube channel focused on food and quickly found success.
Farah started posting in April 2024, featuring cooking vlogs with her longtime cook Dilip, who has since become a social media sensation. Her unique content, including visits to celebrities’ homes and fun kitchen conversations, rapidly garnered millions of subscribers. She proudly mentioned that she received her Silver Play Button after just the second vlog.
Discussing the freed creative control on YouTube, Farah highlighted the absence of restrictions often imposed by OTT platforms or TV channels, which allowed her to produce genuine, unrestricted content. “No one tells me who I can bring on or what I can say. That freedom is priceless,” she said.
One practical motivating factor behind this venture was the impending university education expenses of her three 17-year-old children. Farah admitted that the money earned through vlogging has helped ease those financial pressures significantly. She remains passionate about filmmaking but is enthusiastic about continuing her content creation journey.
Farah Khan’s transition to YouTube exemplifies how established artists are leveraging digital platforms for both creative expression and lucrative business, inspiring many to explore new media avenues beyond traditional cinema.
