"My partner Hemu Sinha and I were in fact the first Indians to reach the WDC finals in 1986. It was held in London and it was really a big deal then. There were dancers from 32 countries participating and I think we were the worst. (Laughs) But we still won something over there. It was called the friendship award or something, because all the teams had voted for us as the friendliest team. I remember we were given a questionnaire to fill at that time and they had asked us what our dreams were and all. I had written that I wanted to become a filmmaker," Farah had said in an interview.

Earlier, Farah had posted a picture where she's perfectly nailing the Dirty Dancing lift with Hemu.
