Self awareness and actually doing something to improve or better after being criticised repeatedly is two different things!

How? All the BS talk in the world and he'll keep churning trash that no one can give 2 shits about. Did any of us care for SOTY? Do average desis care what he keeps going on about in designer trash? Or NRIs for that matter with all his tacky films?

[@Kieslowski1989]

@@Iminoamino Being self-aware is very difficult too. Takes a toll on your mind to actually embrace the criticism. I love the fact that he knows and sees a big gap between two or three different varieties of cinema. And I personally feel that, if given the creative and artistic freedom, he can make an unapologetically realistic commercial movie. He knows he is not the best... He never wanted to. He just wants to redefine the concept of Hindi cinema. I also like what he says about a good movie. A good movie must be watched by all the avid film lovers. You must have a target audience. For commercial movies, the target audience are the folks that come to theatres. For arthouse and indie cinema, the target audience are deep cinema appreciators and the critics and jury members of big award festivals.

[@nezukochan86]

As much as people like to hate on Karan Johar (including me for some of the films he's directed in the past), we cannot negate the fact that he is a mastermind businessman. Not a fan of him as a director, but he carried on the legacy of Dharma, produced some exquisite movies, introduced some brilliant actors to the audience and is probably the most well-spoken celebrities out there.

It was a intense Karan Johar love story which was missing from a long time. And he has a excellent taste for music. The songs blended with Indian classical music and western music. What an album it was. Look even Pritam cannot recreate the same in other movies. He is an excellent filmmaker and great judge of a movie. He looks as the movie as it is. He looks like an elitist snob, but really isn't. He genuinely care about Indian cinema.

You are right Karan! Many of us enjoyed those videos you posted on your kids. Their innocence and being themselves brought a smile and joy during those Covid times. And BTW, many of us LOVED Kalank even though it didn’t do well at the Box Office. Even though some of the settings were unrealistic to the plot, we forgave those inconsistencies and enjoyed the story (and the superb acting of every actor) as it unfolded under the direction of your director, Abhishek Verman. I would also like to add- calling Alia Bhatt the ‘best’ actor in our country across all genders is only detrimental to her career. We all know that’s not true. Every actor has their good and bad movies. I watched the trailers of both Gangubhai and Sadak 2. She was amazing in the former and Razi but her shrill voice in Sadak 2, made me want to shut off the trailer right away. And we have so many amazing actors in our country. So calling her the ‘best’ is false praise which will not be helpful to her.

Whereas in south, it’s the audience who are treated royally with rich content.

[@lakshnemani7960]

With all due respect, your understanding of regional cinema was minimal. Regional cinema like Telugu Tamil and others too made some great films in 50s and 60s. Classics like maaya bazar and missamma and it’s just that audience for regional language is limited those days unlike Hindi cinema . Now regional cinema is surpassing those hurdles and that’s the only difference. Honestly its not Hindi that taught South about angry young man hero types. Telugu made some great commercials with Shri NTR way back and he is a pioneer in the mythological s and later Chiranjeevi Garu mesmerized audience. They just didn’t get a platform unlike the current generation.

[@maddyd1563]

Exactly our mythological movies, some NTR, ANR movies and especially K. Viswanath sir’s movie had universal stories. Also their making and story telling was on par with any Hollywood director. My belief was Bollywood has always underlooked south industry. For example P suseelamma, Chitramma, S Janakamma, SPB sir are equal when compared to Lata Mangeshkar Garu, or Kishore Kumar or Mohammed rafi. But we rarely see Bollywood appreciating south talents compared to what we do to north talent.

Very true. South had great mythological and fictional(Jaanapadhaalu) films which were unique and in one way brought epics into every home.

He is in real life or was as a young man a very genuine and honest man, who got caught up with the whole Bollywood thing, but if you look at his early career and the earlier seasons of Koffe with Karan, he is very respectful and professional. I disagree with some Koffe Episodes and rankings and some things he said on his show, but he also said that it‘a all fun. But if you listen to him talk and how he works shows his talent and understanding of indian cinema. He also made iconic movies like Kuch Kuch and K3G. Every actor of this Gen says that they grew up with both movies and even internationally all his movies did amazingly well. In Germany everyone knows who Karan is and everyone watched his movies.

He gets so much hate and trolling these days, but sometimes i do ask does he deserve it? As a 16 year old watching K2H2 was a phenomenon, i was in my 10th Grade about to move to 11th grade (junior college) that movie made my late teens special. A guy who went crazy abt Hrithik Roshan in KNPH got to know he will be joining none other than Mr. Bachchan & SRK in K3G which also had Jayaji, Kajol n Kareena you must be living under a rock to not love this cast, whats in the movie is a question not even asked. N you go into your single screen balcony and watch the visuals unfold was special. The houses, the sets, the dance routines, the locations. It was all so speacial! Tears still roll down when you see Aman dying in the penultimate scene of KHNH, Rohit was as cool as he was funny and Naina was Nai..Naaa..(hear Rohit saying "why are you saying Naina Naina?)! And as Mr. BR says he did change with time with movies like MNIK & ADHM, so he is doing fine. This guy is a big part of my life and people who were born around that time.

Awesome interview ❤❤

[@nikitamenghani6983]

from the industry, karan is one of the few people who i can listen to at any given point. he's self aware, speaks well and is just accurate at all times. his intellect when it comes to the industry amazes me to no bounds. keeping aside the aspect of nepotism or anything else he may have been responsible for, the keen listener in me will never be tired of hearing him speak. !

[@ifediran.]

[@akrutimalik2196]

All said and done, his business acumen is impeccable....

[@hibadnan]

K3G can easily be one of the best movies of Hindi cinema

[@yogeshrajguru9892]

Karan, it's nice to see both of you in one frame, it's like Amitji and Ranvir together. U r so restless, moving your leg so much, i felt like catching it and challenge i to talk and at the opposite end a cool guy Enjoyed

[@preeganshu]

I place great value in how your body language speaks before you open your mouth. I see self importance in the way Karan is seated. Mostly disrespect for person opposite. You may argue it’s casual, but does it come up that way. But like many comments point out, he speaks well. Kudos to BR for being well prepared and perhaps bringing the best of KR to this interview.

[@abhishekmahanti5320]

Most of the films Alia Bhatt has acted in has been produced Karan Johar barring few of them! Even 2 States & Dear Zindagi was produced by Karan Johar!

[@sumitkain]

He speaks very well. His movie substance is inversely proportional to his oratory. I'm glad, I was spared the temptation to watch a great piece of historical through KJo's eyes. He's best suited to make 'Rocky..... '
