Where to Watch (Legally)

The X-Factors: Farah Khan’s Magic

Farah Khan’s directorial debut is astonishingly confident. She pays homage to 70s masala films (complete with a hilarious cameo by Rajinikanth), spoofs her own industry (the “Bachchan vs. Khan” jokes), and still delivers genuine emotional payoff. The supporting cast is a dream: Sushmita Sen as the sassy, iconic Miss Chandni (the “Bollywood item number” turned empowered cameo), Boman Irani as the clueless principal, and Kirron Kher as the warm, loving stepmother.
