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.

[rakshitnair]

"Unabashedly and unapologetically" is Karan's new "Conjecture"

[danglingconversation]

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

[vimigupta]

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.

[umb]

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

[riyazg]

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.

[arfaa]

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

[RosyJ-bz]

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

[travelwithsonjaa]

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❤

[nounoursonix]

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.

[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.

[pramodpanicker]

Wow! What a brilliant combo, KJo at Sit with Hitlist. He has let it go all.. Fabulous!

[nikitamohan]

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!

[rm]

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.

[piyalimitra]

Karan Johar is always a pleasure to listen 🎶 pure bliss to ears

[Sa]

Love him or hate him, u just cannnot ignore or imagine Bollywood without Karan. More power to you Karan❤keep rising higher

[doveed]

Karan Johar is so intelligent, loving this interview. Feels like listening forever.

[Sheena-dw]

@12:10 very true... Kya karu, dil beech me aa gaya...
Love knows no pre designed tick boxes... It just is. ❤

[sreetamadutt]

You need a friend like SRK in your life!
