Karan Johar is undoubtedly one of the most talked-about celebs in Bollywood. Love him or hate him, the filmmaker has come a long way in showbiz and is an inspiration for many. He has battled against all odds and created a name for himself as one of the most successful filmmakers of Indian cinema. However, time and again he has faced massive trolling, only to come out stronger.
Speaking about the same with Film Companion, Karan shared about being on the receiving end of hate and criticism. He also feels it’s ‘kind of cool’ to hate him. “I’m also like pouting at age 50 into a camera, I sometimes wear shiny clothes and walk the red carpet, I’m coming across catty on a chat show, I’m laughing like a hyena sometimes; can be annoying. I’m everywhere. You put on the TV I’m endorsing a product, I’m judging a reality show, I’m hosting a talk show.”
He added, “I can be annoying to people who don’t know me as a human being. So, it’s kind of cool to hate this person because you don’t know them and you find that what the hell is going on with this person’s life and I can understand why I get the hate.”
However, the Kuch Kuch Hota Hai filmmaker also shared a message for his haters. He added, “Just know that I’m as vulnerable as you are, I’m as emotionally fragile as you are, my heart has been broken in love many a time, I’m a single parent which is a tough job, I did lose my father at a young age and I work really hard still and really seek validation. So, I’m just like anybody else and I hope that those people who come into my life, the ones who have even hated me, give me a chance because I’m not that hateful. I feel that there’s a lot of love I have to give.”
Karan is currently basking in the success of his recently released film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. The film starred Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh in the lead roles. The film went on to be commercial success at the box office.
