She wrote: "Packed and ready to fly out to start filming my 6th movie tomorrow! When and how did all this happen?!?" The model turned actress seems to be enjoying Dubai hopitality and tweeted: Sureeal opulence #Dubai #Atlantis".

India designer Manish Malhotra has also joined the star-studded team, "In dubai for @TheFarahKhan HAPPY NEW YEAR."

Boman Irani who acted with Farah in 'Shirin Farhad Ki Nikal Padi' tweeted: "Off on a month's journey to Dubai for HNY. Will make new friends, bond with old."

His tweets reveal the close bon he shares with the director, "1st shot of HNY done. Super energy, super team. And yes, I've been told to say: super hot director!!! @TheFarahKhan or my lines will be cut."

The lights, cameras and locations are all set and some of the most talented actors from Bollywood will shoot here in Dubai.
