thank you very much brooo

[@akkumehra14]

Karan is so eloquent. He can never be boring, like ANYTHING BUT BORING. I can listen to his stories repeatedly and still not be bored. He would make a cool hang out.

[@nomadicolours]

I would say get out more LOL

[@vimigupta4393]

I love Karan Johar interviews and him as a person. They are so sincere and cathartic. He is so authentic. Loved Rocky aur Rani. Better than all the cgi action films which give me a headache after a while.

[@shwetaaaaaaaaaaaa]

'Cathartic', he used that word many times here

[@danglingconversation]

More than cinema, I prefer Karan talking about himself and life. He is a child and sensitive at heart.

[@Besties591]

With a criminal mind, don’t forget that ! 😅

[@danglingconversation]

@besties591 I was commenting on one aspect of his personality. He is politically shrewd as well - he has to because he is a producer. That doesn't make him a criminal. By the way, I have been a national level journalist and a documentary filmmaker. Perhaps, there's something else I may understand from the inside?

[@Daredevil009.1]

​@@Besties591what 😂 he has nothing to do with anyone he is spending his own money and has right to launch anyone I don't know when ssr was alive why no one supported him

[@umb819]

Karan Johar so eloquent as always , listening to him is like a communication coaching class

[@nounoursonix590]

When he's talking about love and suffering when love is not returned, I understand why his films are so sincere and why I love them so much.... He feels the same way as I do.

[@riyazg958]

I started watching Bollywood movies after watching Ranbir Kapoor.I am really happy that I watched every movie of R.K and also discovered some talented actors from hindi film industry.

[@RosyJ-b1z]

We love see SRK and Karen should work together once again. ❤

​@@cristianojosephbarebor9232abey chutiye dunki aaney deh

[@travelwithsonjaa2598]

He is the best, he wants to sound frivolous but he is very intelligent and it’s an intelligent movie that he has made. I have lived in Delhi and can totally relate to the conversation and mannerisms of Rocky portrayed in the movie. Everyone did a wonderful job in this movie and kudos to KJ for making such a masterpiece. There are so many nuances and progressive messages in such a subtle way that people who are deep and sensitive would understand. It’s a beautiful work, thanks to him for entertaining us in such a soul satiating way❤

[@theayeshasayed]

This man speaks so positively and happily about everything. The way he is narrating the stories. He seems to understand emotions well. The way he laughs off even if he's made fun of. You need a big heart for that. One of the well known directors of India. Films like KKKG / KKHH actually made me feel like this is "BOLLYWOOD" at times. Big Family And Emotional drama haha. Bollywood is still somewhere known for such films. And it's good only.

[@arfaa584]

It's lovely to hear Karan Johar talk ❤❤❤

[@nikitamohan3390]

It's kind of sad that Karan can't publicly talk about his love for a man even in FREAKING 2023 because he's scared or conscious of the backlash!

[@sudhakar7889]

Maybe he wants to be recognized for his work and not his sexuality. Makes sense in a backward country like India.

[@nikitamohan3390]

@@sudhakar7889 Umm when was he NOT recognized for his work in his entire professional career again either box office wise and-or critically??? Again it's freaking 2023! The pathetic excuse you told me is something people have been saying for the last 50, 30, and even 10 years. Practically forever in India! Are you going to say that for the REST of your life??? There's NOTHING more backward and pathetic than that! When you don't have anything valid or substantial to say...then don't even bother!

[@yashdeo6668]

It's his personal choice. Not every queer person needs to talk about their sexuality just because it's more accepted in society now.

[@rm3015]

Karan seems to understand emotions so well. I would love for him to direct/write a film about normal life. For example a modern day 'Raincoat'. A Production without Manish Malhotra designs and big houses, foreign locations. He is practical and intelligent yet his la la land movies portray him as someone frivolous.

[@trulyyoursish]

His intelligence goes for a walk when he directs his ott movies.

From the whole Bollywood, i only loved to watching Priyanka Chopra,Zoya Akhtar, Sharukh Khan and Karan Johar's Interview. They are so so sooo good.

[@sagaramin9869]

Karan always wears his heart on his sleeve. It's a delight to hear him invariably...he's transperent to the core...

[@TabzKitchen]

Just finished watching Jawan ..what a beautiful movie. SRK ❤

[@sonamdolkar5066]

Fully agree with Karan about Saree. Saree is 101% better than any gowns for any Indian ladies for award shows or Red Carpet 👍

[@Mayaxxxxxx]

The world needs more Karan in these times. He is progressive in his thinking and ahead of his years. Long live your success Karan. 🙏🏽

[@DillonPink]

Karan is well spoken and always fun to listen. He is a smart filmmaker also and knows the audience. Loved this interview.

[@dalenemichaels7297]

Thoroughly enjoyed this one & a half hour conversation.Thank you Mayank for making it real. There's just no doubt of Karan's level of intellect & sincerity. Everyone needs a friend like Karan in their life! BTW this podcast is like watching a film in its entirety. I know I'm sounding a bit selfish though, when time's up I just feel it went by too fast. ❤

Noeth South and East West Srk the one of the best ❤

[@shantagees9425]

Most people judge Karan with his trivial Koffee with Karan rapid fire persona that is often controversial in nature and also his nepo baby connection but his interviews are always absolute fun to watch. He has a good vibe and perspective about everything and speak so eloquently

[@shashwat0khurana]

[@abhisheknishad5443]

The way he thinks about movies and characters is brilliant. He is such a pure soul. I don’t know why people don’t like this guy ! He’s awesome in every possible way❤️

[@sudhakar7889]

People don't like who are different and act differently. They mock everything that's not them. Sometimes even he acts very weirdly. He can afford that.

[@b-6870]

I too like him as a film director. He is passionate about what he does. But I won't say that people dislike him for no reason.

[@AZAR7787]

😂😂😂 he's definitely not a pure soul. He's a wretched ugly nepotist/elitist who actively destroys outside talent along with his cronies...

[@Muswell]

An excellent interview - thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

[@barnalighosh4309]

Good to see KJ being more brave in his mental health space...his evolving is directly proportionate to his quality of movies, not that his earlier movies were any less, just that their purpose & bandwith were different.

[@anujoseph_10]

9:13 NOT AT ALL. I like Karan's directorials but i have to say, Alia and Ranveer has literally ZERO chemistry. Just like ranbir and her has zero chemistry. No matter how many times you try to shove this idea down our throats karan its not going to happen. Infact alia and ranveer has negative chemistry tbh. Deepika should have done Rani's role in RARKPK

I loved Karan since 2016 when I started to know Indian movie cinema n still love him. More kudos to him.

[@1718Tan]

this is the movie I can watch multiple times. Just loved the movie. I think KJ has done a wonderful job. After many years watched a movie without any complain. Fantabulous. Hated Jawan, Pathan, Ayan M movie forgot the name etc but loved this movie.

[@Muswell]

It's interesting that you didn't like Pathaan or Jawan. . I was really looking forward to them but, in the end, they were just very violent & full of murder, car explosions & CGI like those boring Hollywood action films. . I wish SRK would do a really interesting film to show off his acting skills. I like Indian films like "The Lunch Box" -- or Korean films like "Minari". Just well-made, well-written, interesting films.

So much to get inspiration from, Karan Johar, is an institution in itself and I dont think even he knows, how in his journey, he is constantly inspiring, encouraging and giving the most deep rooted advice put up in the most simple references....!
