"Ok... introducing one of my oldest friends... the very talented and the super entertaining @thefarahkhan (Farah's Twitter identity)," posted Johar.

After Farah's entry, Mallika wrote: "Twitter is now officially cool".

Singer Sunidhi Chauhan said: "Queen Khan finally on Twitter. Let's welcome her… It's @TheFarahKhan."

Music composer Vishal Dadlani described her as "one of the most viciously, witty, and also most real and wonderful human beings I know,". His partner Shekhar said: "Let's all welcome the coolest, the rocking and a very dear friend @thefarahkhan."

"I'm overwhelmed! I can hardly keep up with your response. How sweet you all are! (I have got) such a warm welcome. (I) Promise to be correct, but not politically," she posted in her trademark, nonchalant style."
