Cyrus Broacha Questions Dilip’s On-Screen Personality
During the conversation, Cyrus admitted that he did not enjoy watching Dilip in recent videos. He said Dilip seemed to act for the camera rather than behave naturally.
“I don’t like that guy. He irritates me,” Cyrus said. He added that Dilip seemed more natural in his early appearances but later began to look different on screen.
Cyrus also suggested that Farah might guide Dilip’s lines. He questioned whether Dilip genuinely enjoyed making the videos and described him as overrated.

How Farah Khan’s YouTube Channel Helped Dilip
Beyond his growing popularity, Dilip has also benefited financially from working with Farah. The filmmaker previously explained that her YouTube success helped him clear his debts and start building a house in his hometown in Bihar.
During a November 21, 2025, appearance on Soha Ali Khan’s YouTube channel, Farah said she had helped pay off Dilip’s outstanding loans. She also encouraged him to avoid taking further loans with interest.
Furthermore, Farah said she wanted to involve brands in the project so Dilip could build his house without paying for it himself.
She has also supported his family’s education. According to her earlier comments, she enrolled his children in an English-medium school and helped one of his sons pursue a culinary diploma.
Dilip’s Journey From Delhi to YouTube Fame
In one of Farah’s vlogs, Dilip recalled earning just ₹300 during his early days in Delhi. He later began working at Farah’s home, where he reportedly earned ₹20,000.
Since then, his earnings have grown, with additional payments from YouTube appearances contributing to his income. His regular presence in Farah’s videos has also helped him become a familiar face among viewers.
Farah Khan’s Recent Television Work
Farah Khan has continued to work across film and television. She recently co-hosted Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa alongside Riteish Deshmukh, according to the supplied report.
Meanwhile, the discussion around Cyrus’s remarks has brought fresh attention to Dilip’s popularity and his role in Farah’s YouTube content.
