Will The OTT Revolution Create The Utopia Independent Filmmakers Have Fought For? Writes Vishal Menon: www.filmcompanion.in/features/malayalam-features/amazon-prime-netflix-hotstar-opened-up-space-for-independent-filmmakers-leena-manimekalai-don-palathara-nithin-lukose-jeo-baby/
He's like one of those kids in class who asks mny questions to teachers , behaves like a sincere boy , talks like a student who studies a lot ... Nd everyone is convinced that he's a sincere nd Studious boy ..... But never provides the promised output nd his marks in exam never reflects his behaviour on other days
Shuddhi, Rannbhoomi and now Takth ...Takth won't be made because he is more of a businessman than a creative person to make an EPIC ...he can only present a Baahubali, never make one
Well said, he is risk averse and caught in this “being relevant” race so ends up making or rather designing safe films…His movies date very badly like KKHH or K3G which is a shame because he has the biggest production house in the country and has access to all the money and stars but still makes forgettable films! He is better off as a presenter or producer!
@@Battlestar4 mmm idk I wouldn’t call his films like K3G and KKHH forgettable. You could dislike them and you could say they’ve dated badly BUT they’re definitely not forgettable. His body of work is one of the most recognized.
When you realized that the writers were not empowered in 2010, then why produce a movie called Kalank in 2019 ?!? He always acknowledges, says all the right things in interviews but output is something else!
Yep! He knows how to do an interview,saying all the right things. What he actually does is another matter. Glad that more & more people are seeing through.
Anupama, I cannot believe you are interviewing the same old people again n again with nothing new to say. Nothing against the likes of johar, alia n the likes, but I am soooo bored! They have just nothing new to say. I watched quint interviewing ratna pathak shah and paresh rawal, what a delight to watch them speak, inspired is what i felt.
@@animalsare2018 and that's how the world is, bhakts who blindly believe in all the froth coming out of the bigwigs' mouth and doesnt seem to care if such people follow it up with their actions! Such below average movie making and shallow personality who shamelessly sticks upto anyone who can make him some money, that's karan johar!
@@tsts4380 I DOUBT U EVEN READ MY REPLY BEFORE PASSING UR OPINION, I SAID HE'S JUST A GREAT ORATOR (oratory is about HOW one speaks irrespective of WHAT they speak) , THAT'S ALL Kjo himself shouts n says in interviews that he's a clumsy person n not to take any of his statements (including those in kwk) seriously.
Wow! Nice argument! So it doesnt matter to you what they speak as long as they speak well? If everything he says is BS, then y come on a serious talk show and fluff for 45 mins straight and eat onto someone else's slot just cos u have the money?
Karan was a perfect casting in the movie. His acting was awsome. He suited the role. I just feel that the Karan we know, like the way he is, people din't accept him in a serious role like Kambata of Bombay velvet. But i personally felt he was Kambata only!
@@pawanthakur-df2yk “lol” you have no idea what is it to be a queer man in our country. Being one ik what it is like. And im a nobody in this world and even if i come out nobody cares. But being where he is and having people like u comment all the time its better to stay in the closet. Your comment is a sheer example of cis het entitlement
He will be thanking you for the certificate you gave him. Pretentious, wannabe Indian. Can he speak pure Hindi or Urdu or any mother tongue? This bullshit Bollywood is ending soon, to be replaced by those who speak the language of the people. But let me thank you on behalf of him, for describing him articulated.
He talks about putting writers at the forefront of films. I hope that he can walk that talk because he failed in taking out the item song from his films. He spoke of how he’ll never do that in his films but okayed “Aira Gaira” to be in Kalank. No matter how much they tried to downplay it by saying it was shot aesthetically but bottomline it was an item song because Krithi was only there for the duration of that song. Hopefully he can do better
Aira gaira was a beautiful piece. There was nothing derogatory about it towards women. And there is something called a cameo performance. Don't demean something without actually understanding the issue at hand. Item songs objectify women. This song didn't do that.
Krithi had no role whatsoever outside of the song regardless of its lyrics, so what would you call that? Same goes for Madhuri's dance with Ranbir in the song Ghagra or Priyanka's dance in Ram Leela. The lyrics may not have been vulgar or objectifying women but it's still an item song by the fact that the actresses were not seen in the film after the song. That's how an Item Song works.
@@sudeshsingh4067 Bhai special appearance kehte hai ise. Ghagra there was no objectification or skin show. It was a song about a guy and a girl both flirting with a positive energy.
just realised that KJo’s background, is basically the same place where Deepika, Ranbir, Arjun, Malaika, Varun, Zoya Akhtar, Mira & Shahid, Vicky Kaushal & many more were chilling that one night, and he posted it on his Instagram. later on, it turned out to be the same video which was getting analysed by so many people last year, regarding the drugs NCB case lol, though it was all useless.
So true! He s always like that!! Also, he is the one in the industry most obsessed with the so called big actors (stars as he likes to call it), and talks as though that's something alien with him. This guy is an utter fake!!
@@deadshot3142 Actually, I’m a complete outsider myself. I used to be a staunch Kangana fan. Then I saw her bigoted, extreme, attention seeking, cheap and vengeful behavior.

There was a time I loved Bollywood, this guy, and his conversations and then I grew up. Bollywood is no longer attractive. Karma has come to bite the entire industry that pushed and awarded mediocrity for decades.
19:13 Launching talentless nepotism products like Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday , Ibrahim Ali Khan, Shanaya Kapoor and Agastya Nanda who struggle to even speak Hindi properly and giving gyaan that "Stars are wonderful when they are good actors".
Behen aap jab bade bann jaate ho tab aapke khaandaan aur relatives aur doston ko aapse kuch madad ki ummeed hoti hai. He is helping them at his cost. Its his personal circle, he can't be outcasted. Think from his perspective. He gave us many GOOD films also. And what nepotism nepotism. Ranbir's first film sucked inspite of being A SLB Directorial. Give them some chance. Look at Alia and Varun and Sid. Look at their films...Karan gave us K3G and KKHH and MNIK. So don't do this bullshit criticism ffs.
@@umangagarwal5259 So correct. Bollywood is the only staple entertainment for large part of the country. It is the audience who is so keen on seeing the star kids and evaluating them etc.. and at the same time we want to criticise the source.
“TAKHT" BOLLYWOOD'S OBSESSION WITH MUGHALS IS LIKE SON'S OBSESSION WITH MOTHER. It's like rubbing salt on Hindus wounds. In our history books mughals, our roads names based on mughals,5 times Allah hu akbar (azan)first epic movie mughle azam, jodha akbar (to spread love jihad), the empire (babar was feminist), Here I'm finding Shivaji maharajah, guru gobind Singh, rajputs, ahoms, chera, pandya, pallavas, cholas, guptas, rashtrakutas. No inhe sirf Urdu impose karni hai,
Why does anupama have to behave like a giggling teenage fangirl every step of the way! And what was that "you aren't so bad at interviewing" at the end?? Its a personal view, but this guy perhaps represents everything that's wrong with Hindi cinema- the gloss over substance, the content starvation, nepotism and all else that could possibly be wrong with it..
Ya after all the whole Bullywood ecosystem will support him in bullying more outsiders and a courageous woman like Kangana Ranaut will be pulled down by dimwits like u 🙄
@@aniketmishra5607 a Kangana fan who keeps on calling Taapsee Pannu a sasti copy or participates in continuous name calling is talking about bullying 🤣🤣🤣🤣 like seriously?
@@mr.goldenleaves Didn't Taapsee Pannu attack Kangana first by saying that she needs double filter and the fact that Taapsee didn't have to sleep on pavements?U r just a leftist who hates Kangana for her political ideology nothing else
So called liberals, critics like Barkha Dutt Anupama Chopra who interview him often have never had the audacity and temerity to ask him why there's so much mysogyny he hurled towards the women in his show Koffee with Karan? He umpteen number of times most irritatingly enquired Deepika Padukone about her love life, tattoo and marriage but he never pushed any of the male stars towards settling down and what next after wedlock.
It's not like KJo is a feminist or anything... All his movies right from KKHH are sexist movies. He himself has justified such commercializing techniques... No need to ask again and again.
The reason why Hindi film industry IS in such a slump is the one you are interviewing Anupama. 😄 One who promotes show-off pop culture, all fluff no substance. And just cz he doesn't want to grow up mentally or physically, he feels he needs to stroke egoes of the nepo kids to stay relevent himself in their lives. HE who had and has such a leverage to change things around cinema... DID not support real talent, and still brags about being fair and down to earth.
He makes such films because they work. Every film of his direction is a massive hit. People want to watch such films whether you like it or not. Nice armchair "critic" attempt though. You'll be successfully certified for your "coolness" with a few likes. Congrats.😂
@@krishnadhiman4486 first dont judge a film by box office numbers thats producers headache. Of the films u mentioned only my name is khan will withstand the test of time. Also, the audience here is dumb thats why films like Soty, Any Rohit Shetty film, most Karan Johar film work bcoz they know the formula.
@@krishnadhiman4486 Box Office Of course. That's the bloody reasons films suffer. MNIK was a MASTERPIECE IN INDIAN CINEMA HISTORY. So please don't speak about numbers.
Guess who today's guest is....the Nepo-father of the industry!!! U r shocked for not getting acting roles in past 7 years...I am shocked u got to last this long in the industry...LoL
If you remove your heads from the ground and check the facts . . You will know how many opportunities he has provided to outsiders . . As Directors, writers, actors . . But most of you are in a perception that media has created . . You blame him for nepotism for a handful of star kids he has launched, but ignore the opportunities he has given to numerous outsiders . .
He has single handedly tilted the entire ecosystem. When awards are given to star kids over people who worked so hard to make their debuts, imagine how soul crushing it is….
@Tuhin Pal (PGDM 13-15) why are u bringing Kangana here? Dont compare this shit nepotism Karan with a selfmade successful lady💅💅 Kangana bashed him like a punching bag in 2017 and gave a terrific reply to him when Karan asked him for doing surgeries in 2011. Thats called success queen things💅💅
I can't understand why a director like Karan Johar is making Takht.I know people want to change or want to experiment all the time.That's why our world is progressing but Karan Sir has a special genre which nobody does in the entire Bollywood.He makes beautiful,exotic,intense love stories.But I think he should not create Takht which is out of his genre.He should make an another film.I know it is extremely silly to comment on this and I know it very very well that nothing will get changed for me but I thought I should say what I feel.
Karan rightly said song and dance are our soul and that is what we r famus 4 too but it has taken a back seat in terms of content.need to gve it a rebirth.Also was highly excited for Takth n was sad whn it ws shlvd.It a story need to b told given the tims v r living in.Plz Karan re-visit ur pasion.
He will promote whomsoever he is launching...whether they are talented or not...both alia and Jhanvi are below average..however he will constantly say they are at top just to subconsciously put it in audience's brain and judgement...
who deluded him into thinking he can take criticism? as though people can't see through the pretense. someone saying how he practice nepotism got him upset when its a fact. what a joke
karan knows very well how to articulate his points in a very attractive manner...pls Karan do a good movie like yahi jawani hai diwani...we love them so much...we are so much waiting for a Deepika Padukone's movie..[ fun and light movie]
Ya… you can’t laugh but you can laugh at other people very well! Especially newcomers. And it’s high time that you think before you speak. You have created enough drama everywhere anyway:-)
Dude chill out . Stop bringing the same old thing everywhere If people worried about their government - emergence of dictatorship and censorship and all the BS going on right now in our country than complaining about nepotism, the country would be so much better off. Sooo many spoke up about BS bollywood drama than the crap our govt is pulling #onlyinindia🙄
Soon he is gonna launched in a good film again and people rave with positive reviews…he big time earned all the sympathy from anupama…i see that coming
Only if your dream project were of personalities who made bharat free rather than the ones who were invaders people would have appreciated and supported u more. I guess u still didn't get the lesson with success of Bahubali .
Self-censorship is a bullshit notion! It's simply a choice the creator makes for whatever reasons (it's an individual's liberty to do so). Using terms like "self-censorship" to describe such notions are restricting artists from fully expressing their experience of life and living as if it's a liability that one MUST fulfil or else severe consequences shall be unleashed by the other. The notion of self-censorship is nothing but the romanticization of restricted speech. It's okay to be offended. Art does not care to babysit the audience.
This man just doesn't learn. He pushes aside views of the millions aside as trolling and continues casting star kids. I used to love his confidence but now i wish that his arrogance shatters - that he either listens to the audience or becomes irrelevant.
suds datta not by manipulating the entire ecosystem and tilting the weight towards the already uplifted. Realise he has created an entire show to demean others and rate HUMAN BEINGS. that is who he is.
This is Bollywood's most shameless man. He favoured star kids not only in movies but also in his talk show.. Once Zoya Akhtar Kabir Khan and Imtiaz Ali were present and they have to chose who's the next big stars.. Zoya Kabir chose Ranveer and then to put Ranveer Singh down he popped the name of Ranbir Kapoor and said blatantly that no one is close to his charisma and acting. He didn't even give Ranveer Singh hamper in most of his appearances which he rightly deserved.
I really appreciate Anupama’s content but please a little suggestion. Every time the interviewee finishes an answer, please replace your nervous laugh with a short reply or a simple reaction. It feels so forced and as if you just want to move to the next question. Even a simple reply like ok, noted, good point, would be better than a laugh.
I think the age of cinemas will fade unless something bizzare happens and OTT backs down or some global technical glitch wipes down web content. Who wants to watch the mediocre content bollywood churns. Look what Netflix/Amazon are offering. Already witnessed the craze about Squid game and so many more shows. Unless these makers realise web content is not sub par but the end game of content, nothing is going to change.
Ooh KJo! If only you were half as talented as the Hype. We all thought you would be the next big director of our generation but you ended up being just a fancy one. Just like your pal Adi chopra. You both are one hit wonders and just consider yourself Lucky that you were able to flaunt all of your Dad's bucks on your debut movie and now you guy's are just history. Kindly Better stick to the producer role and keep launching your friends kids into your family owned business of Bollywood and let the art of story telling and the magic of cinema run by some talented film makers. Thanks.
They own industry and they are saying we didn't empower writers.... Whereas their movie marketing revolbes around marketing superstar... Paisa kamar baith gaye aur batae bana rahe h
Aamir Khan as Dara Shiloh and Hritik Roshan as Alamgir would have been better choices. It seems you had budget issues and got two junior actors as the lead in a historical.
Has made nothing significant after his first movie, perhaps he should stay away from gossip shows and comedy routines and focus on what he knows best. He will take you to the moon and back with his conversations and you will realize that you did not hear anything new.
It requires guts to reach the level and age where he has reached and to still try out new things in life. In a country where we are taught to choose the safest profession by the age of 30 and stick to it for the rest of our lives,trying out things like standup where you poke fun at yourself requires guts. Kangana fans please chill with all the nepotism debate.It's funny to see this debate even after all the trash that Kangana has churned out after seeing a bit of success in her life and how she has left no stone unturned to humiliate fellow outsiders and married exes. Nobody is perfect,just because a person isn't born to a privileged family doesn't make the person perfect and being born to a privileged household doesn't make you a demon.
Agree 100% with what u said except the part about Kangana . Both are really articulate though they have separate view points and an interview with both would be great . People just need to chill.
And Kangana has tried new things once she became a star . She did Manikarnika, mental awareness film JHK , sports drama Panga Simran , biopic Thalaivii coming up with indias biggest budget woen centric spy action film , 3 big budget films RSVPs highest budheted film till now etc . Sometimes feel like only she and Ranbir is unafraid to try new things even though its affecting their financial prospects .
@@Akshay-tq6zk Yes I agree people need to chill, but you can see in the comment section how a lot of people are dragging him because of all the nepotism debate,I mean it's his choice at the end of the day,just like Kangana has a choice and an opinion. I agree I used to be a kangana fan too even before she was this huge personality,but now I have a different opinion and I also beg to differ about the mental health issue part,she has made fun of Deepika's mental health awareness campaign during the whole SSR incident. She made a whole joke of an actor's death and nothing really came out of it. She is extremely talented but just like most creative people,she is flawed too.
@@vaishnavivenu6862 I like Deepika and she may have depression but that doesn't mean she can be a hypocrite . She used her Live Laugh Love foundation because she had problems with kangana to try and ban JHK arguably one of the best films on mental health and had problems with mental hai kya but not yeh ladki pagal hai song or pagalpanti etc . Karan is getting bashed because he had the audacity to ask Kangana who is where she is because of her talent to get out of the industry , repeatedly looked down and insulted her when she was struggling and to mock her at IIFA. She's flawed and her twitter is a mess but so is he . Honestly , these teases and insults from biggies have an impact on people who have no plan B or connections or rich parents to relaunch them, people like Kangana and SSR . Kangana is in one word raw . Kuch bi kaho but after she critisises a person for what she felt wrong she gives compliments where its due too .
@@aniketmishra5607 dekhne jaaye toh baat sahi kahi usne, both of them need some kinds therapy one or other way. Hating Karan doesnt mean ki Kangana ki tarafdari hi kre, wo bhi kam paagk nai h
Sir, you are saying that dramidies, romcoms will not work in theatres anymore, and again you are only making 'rocky and rani ki prem kahani' which is a rom-com and a dramady. It seems like you yourself are confused.

Bollywood is no longer attractive. Karma has come to bite the entire industry that pushed and awarded mediocrity for decades.
Did you like Karan Johar?sane here Bro but from when did you start hating him?
I mean yes me too , tbh Karan is really good with using language to turn n twist around his favour
Tollywood has crushed the egos of these nepotist bollywood
@@allarjun956 tollywood itself has major nepo prblms bigger than bollywood lol
19:13 Launching talentless nepotism products like Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday , Ibrahim Ali Khan, Shanaya Kapoor and Agastya Nanda who struggle to even speak Hindi properly and giving gyaan that "Stars are wonderful when they are good actors".
As if you have never taken help from anyone.. and every move forward was safedi ki zhankar.
Behen aap jab bade bann jaate ho tab aapke khaandaan aur relatives aur doston ko aapse kuch madad ki ummeed hoti hai. He is helping them at his cost. Its his personal circle, he can't be outcasted. Think from his perspective. He gave us many GOOD films also. And what nepotism nepotism. Ranbir's first film sucked inspite of being A SLB Directorial. Give them some chance. Look at Alia and Varun and Sid. Look at their films...Karan gave us K3G and KKHH and MNIK. So don't do this bullshit criticism ffs.
@@umangagarwal5259 So correct. Bollywood is the only staple entertainment for large part of the country. It is the audience who is so keen on seeing the star kids and evaluating them etc.. and at the same time we want to criticise the source.
I hope karan johar doesn't mess up with the amazing star cast of takht
Alia, Janhvi, Ranveer are amazing to u?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@aniketmishra5607 jahnavi is bad but alia bhatt and ranveer are good

Why does anupama have to behave like a giggling teenage fangirl every step of the way! And what was that "you aren't so bad at interviewing" at the end?? Its a personal view, but this guy perhaps represents everything that's wrong with Hindi cinema- the gloss over substance, the content starvation, nepotism and all else that could possibly be wrong with it..
Telling Anupama your not so bad.. Lol 🤣🤣
Love the fact that after what the fake queen tried to do him, he stands tall and he is back !!

So called liberals, critics like Barkha Dutt Anupama Chopra who interview him often have never had the audacity and temerity to ask him why there's so much mysogyny he hurled towards the women in his show Koffee with Karan? He umpteen number of times most irritatingly enquired Deepika Padukone about her love life, tattoo and marriage but he never pushed any of the male stars towards settling down and what next after wedlock.
What is the necessity of mentioning ‘liberals’ ????
@@abhiraajsingh5878 it is necessary as people like u object at even the mention of it.
Its a fun talk show and all the people are aware of questions beforehand so they are ok with it. So chill.
He asks his male guests all the same question too.
Try harder😂😂
It's not like KJo is a feminist or anything... All his movies right from KKHH are sexist movies. He himself has justified such commercializing techniques... No need to ask again and again.
I hope takht is nothing like Kalank. I wish I could get my time and money back for Kalank.
You are on a roll Karan!! I am raring to head to the cinema abs watch your movies 👍👍
Only if he actually do what he admit in interviews.

@@rf653 you can do grammar check and let me know :)
Gadha jo hai
The reason why Hindi film industry IS in such a slump is the one you are interviewing Anupama. 😄
One who promotes show-off pop culture, all fluff no substance. And just cz he doesn't want to grow up mentally or physically, he feels he needs to stroke egoes of the nepo kids to stay relevent himself in their lives. HE who had and has such a leverage to change things around cinema... DID not support real talent, and still brags about being fair and down to earth.
He makes such films because they work.
Every film of his direction is a massive hit. People want to watch such films whether you like it or not.
Nice armchair "critic" attempt though. You'll be successfully certified for your "coolness" with a few likes. Congrats.😂

U r shocked for not getting acting roles in past 7 years...I am shocked u got to last this long in the industry...LoL
Bollywood only describes its epic upcoming projects as costume drama. It says everything about the quality spent in the scripts right there.
If you remove your heads from the ground and check the facts . . You will know how many opportunities he has provided to outsiders . . As Directors, writers, actors . . But most of you are in a perception that media has created . . You blame him for nepotism for a handful of star kids he has launched, but ignore the opportunities he has given to numerous outsiders . .
He has single handedly tilted the entire ecosystem. When awards are given to star kids over people who worked so hard to make their debuts, imagine how soul crushing it is….
Yes correct
@@kayjay3264 So Kjo is responsible for basically everything happening in Bollywood . . 🤔
Mohammed Minhaj Uddin Khan did I say that???? Read again
He does not have the calibre to make a movie on the scale of Takht, tum se na ho payegaa....stick to your "strengths"..
Can't agree more
Bara aaya calibre dikhane..check on you first..u must be a chaplose
Kalank 😂😂
@@bguha9482 Just my opinion...my apologies and sympathies for ur taste in movies, that u felt the need to defend johar...
I think he has enough caliber to decide what kind of movies he wants to make. Its his money and time after all.
This whole interview is a self PR gig
How can someone praise himself so much?!
@Tuhin Pal (PGDM 13-15) lol both Kangana and Karan have massive ego....in a way both are same
@Tuhin Pal (PGDM 13-15) both r disasters
@Tuhin Pal (PGDM 13-15) why are u bringing Kangana here? Dont compare this shit nepotism Karan with a selfmade successful lady💅💅 Kangana bashed him like a punching bag in 2017 and gave a terrific reply to him when Karan asked him for doing surgeries in 2011. Thats called success queen things💅💅
@@vaninsha Kangana is such a kind hearted lady go watch her interviews u will find the difference😡
@Tuhin Pal (PGDM 13-15)cant defend him so drag kangana?
Never been this fast to watch KJo video. Been missing his banter lotsssss
your one click can change my whole life 🙏😭😭🙏..........
Love Karan!
TAKT is back .. already on
Loving their sweatshirts! 🙈
karan is good business man and talks sense..looking at his couch behind..he is damm rich guy..living a luxurious life..lucky man
I can't understand why a director like Karan Johar is making Takht.I know people want to change or want to experiment all the time.That's why our world is progressing but Karan Sir has a special genre which nobody does in the entire Bollywood.He makes beautiful,exotic,intense love stories.But I think he should not create Takht which is out of his genre.He should make an another film.I know it is extremely silly to comment on this and I know it very very well that nothing will get changed for me but I thought I should say what I feel.
Karan rightly said song and dance are our soul and that is what we r famus 4 too but it has taken a back seat in terms of content.need to gve it a rebirth.Also was highly excited for Takth n was sad whn it ws shlvd.It a story need to b told given the tims v r living in.Plz Karan re-visit ur pasion.
He is good at interviews, wish him to be equally good in movies too. Never found his movies great.
All the best Karan. Waiting for your next season of koffee with Karan
Lol, that show is killed by Kangana. Will be hard to bring back
I don't understand why Karan Johar always prefers Alia Bhatt over every other actress including Kareena Kapoor 😑So many actresses are better than Alia
Ya true, I think due to huge fan following 🤨
Wait till alia reaches 30
He's moving to janhvi slowly and steadily
He will promote whomsoever he is launching...whether they are talented or not...both alia and Jhanvi are below average..however he will constantly say they are at top just to subconsciously put it in audience's brain and judgement...
@@anusha9518 Ya the fake ig followers right?

@@nidhimoradiya6553 yaa😅💀
anupama has become the lawyer of nepo gang, first kareena,,,now karan...these ppl will never change......
Takht is a movie we need. Idk why you shelved with
People like you will definitely want movie like Takht which glorify Mughals and show wrong history
who deluded him into thinking he can take criticism? as though people can't see through the pretense. someone saying how he practice nepotism got him upset when its a fact. what a joke
And he kept bringing that up everywhere mocking Kangana!
Biggest loser ever!
eagerly waiting for takht. Ranveer Singh n Vicky Kaushal
karan knows very well how to articulate his points in a very attractive manner...pls Karan do a good movie like yahi jawani hai diwani...we love them so much...we are so much waiting for a Deepika Padukone's movie..[ fun and light movie]
Ya… you can’t laugh but you can laugh at other people very well! Especially newcomers.
And it’s high time that you think before you speak. You have created enough drama everywhere anyway:-)
Is it a crime to laugh at people who are not talented?
@@sulaganabiswas it is uncourteous, act of ill manner!
Dude chill out . Stop bringing the same old thing everywhere
If people worried about their government - emergence of dictatorship and censorship and all the BS going on right now in our country than complaining about nepotism, the country would be so much better off.
Sooo many spoke up about BS bollywood drama than the crap our govt is pulling #onlyinindia🙄
Nowadays karan johar is making good movie like shersha & sooryavanshi . didn't expect him to make this kinds of movie tho .
Soon he is gonna launched in a good film again and people rave with positive reviews…he big time earned all the sympathy from anupama…i see that coming
Only if your dream project were of personalities who made bharat free rather than the ones who were invaders people would have appreciated and supported u more. I guess u still didn't get the lesson with success of Bahubali .
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Gentle Reminder !!! Annupama you missed reviewing Thallavi
It's their agenda. They won't review kangana's movies.
@@Dr.SyedSaifAbbasNaqviBefore you bitch about someone...........she probably was not invited to the movie's screening
Self-censorship is a bullshit notion! It's simply a choice the creator makes for whatever reasons (it's an individual's liberty to do so). Using terms like "self-censorship" to describe such notions are restricting artists from fully expressing their experience of life and living as if it's a liability that one MUST fulfil or else severe consequences shall be unleashed by the other. The notion of self-censorship is nothing but the romanticization of restricted speech. It's okay to be offended. Art does not care to babysit the audience.
He’s wearing a jacket of Marilyn Monroe!? Seriously.!
I love him.. And I am a fan of him.. 💓
Nepotism rocks..
Yes 🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂😂
This man just doesn't learn. He pushes aside views of the millions aside as trolling and continues casting star kids. I used to love his confidence but now i wish that his arrogance shatters - that he either listens to the audience or becomes irrelevant.
He can cast whoever he wants to as it’s his money ...
As long as it's talented star kid like Aalia it's great
@@addiegloriam Blind chamchas like u empower this cruel Johar

Why is he giving interviews and smiling when his best friend Shahrukh is going through his worst crisis ever.
Enjoyed the interview! KJ has a positive vibe!
Karan johar is nice wise and creative. And smart. And very sympathetic.
Someone please tell me if Anupama has covered Thalivii or not? And if not then WHY NOT?!
Kangana is frickin Shero!
This is Bollywood's most shameless man. He favoured star kids not only in movies but also in his talk show.. Once Zoya Akhtar Kabir Khan and Imtiaz Ali were present and they have to chose who's the next big stars.. Zoya Kabir chose Ranveer and then to put Ranveer Singh down he popped the name of Ranbir Kapoor and said blatantly that no one is close to his charisma and acting. He didn't even give Ranveer Singh hamper in most of his appearances which he rightly deserved.
ranbir has more charisma so he said it usme kya hain

@@akanshakapoor3829 hey akansha/avinash kapoor
I really appreciate Anupama’s content but please a little suggestion. Every time the interviewee finishes an answer, please replace your nervous laugh with a short reply or a simple reaction. It feels so forced and as if you just want to move to the next question. Even a simple reply like ok, noted, good point, would be better than a laugh.
I think the age of cinemas will fade unless something bizzare happens and OTT backs down or some global technical glitch wipes down web content. Who wants to watch the mediocre content bollywood churns. Look what Netflix/Amazon are offering. Already witnessed the craze about Squid game and so many more shows. Unless these makers realise web content is not sub par but the end game of content, nothing is going to change.
Ooh KJo!
If only you were half as talented as the Hype.
We all thought you would be the next big director of our generation but you ended up being just a fancy one.
Just like your pal Adi chopra.
You both are one hit wonders and just consider yourself Lucky that you were able to flaunt all of your Dad's bucks on your debut movie and now you guy's are just history.
Kindly Better stick to the producer role and keep launching your friends kids into your family owned business of Bollywood and let the art of story telling and the magic of cinema run by some talented film makers.
Thanks.
They own industry and they are saying we didn't empower writers.... Whereas their movie marketing revolbes around marketing superstar... Paisa kamar baith gaye aur batae bana rahe h
I AM JUST SO EXCITED FOR TAKHT I JUST CAN’T WAITTTTT
Yes, please don't wait 🤣

Wat abt brahmastra ??
Aamir Khan as Dara Shiloh and Hritik Roshan as Alamgir would have been better choices. It seems you had budget issues and got two junior actors as the lead in a historical.
Has made nothing significant after his first movie, perhaps he should stay away from gossip shows and comedy routines and focus on what he knows best. He will take you to the moon and back with his conversations and you will realize that you did not hear anything new.
My name is Khan, KANK, ADHM were all good films mate
14:29 honest👍
Da man himself 😃😃😃🔥
It requires guts to reach the level and age where he has reached and to still try out new things in life. In a country where we are taught to choose the safest profession by the age of 30 and stick to it for the rest of our lives,trying out things like standup where you poke fun at yourself requires guts.
Kangana fans please chill with all the nepotism debate.It's funny to see this debate even after all the trash that Kangana has churned out after seeing a bit of success in her life and how she has left no stone unturned to humiliate fellow outsiders and married exes. Nobody is perfect,just because a person isn't born to a privileged family doesn't make the person perfect and being born to a privileged household doesn't make you a demon.
Who brought Kangana in between? Her haters brought her else there was no need of bringing her in between.
Agree 100% with what u said except the part about Kangana . Both are really articulate though they have separate view points and an interview with both would be great . People just need to chill.
And Kangana has tried new things once she became a star . She did Manikarnika, mental awareness film JHK , sports drama Panga Simran , biopic Thalaivii coming up with indias biggest budget woen centric spy action film , 3 big budget films RSVPs highest budheted film till now etc . Sometimes feel like only she and Ranbir is unafraid to try new things even though its affecting their financial prospects .
@@Akshay-tq6zk Yes I agree people need to chill, but you can see in the comment section how a lot of people are dragging him because of all the nepotism debate,I mean it's his choice at the end of the day,just like Kangana has a choice and an opinion. I agree I used to be a kangana fan too even before she was this huge personality,but now I have a different opinion and I also beg to differ about the mental health issue part,she has made fun of Deepika's mental health awareness campaign during the whole SSR incident. She made a whole joke of an actor's death and nothing really came out of it. She is extremely talented but just like most creative people,she is flawed too.
@@vaishnavivenu6862 I like Deepika and she may have depression but that doesn't mean she can be a hypocrite . She used her Live Laugh Love foundation because she had problems with kangana to try and ban JHK arguably one of the best films on mental health and had problems with mental hai kya but not yeh ladki pagal hai song or pagalpanti etc .
Karan is getting bashed because he had the audacity to ask Kangana who is where she is because of her talent to get out of the industry , repeatedly looked down and insulted her when she was struggling and to mock her at IIFA. She's flawed and her twitter is a mess but so is he . Honestly , these teases and insults from biggies have an impact on people who have no plan B or connections or rich parents to relaunch them, people like Kangana and SSR .
Kangana is in one word raw . Kuch bi kaho but after she critisises a person for what she felt wrong she gives compliments where its due too .
Karan Johar is super talented!
