In this episode, Karan Johar opens up about his journey, not just as a filmmaker and producer, but as someone constantly adapting to an ever-changing industry. He addresses the recent flops of his films, and also reflects on what the word “success” really means in an industry where public opinion changes overnight.
Karan opens up about his personal battles from the trauma of losing his father to how bullying and societal expectations shaped his early years. He talks about the pressure to appear a certain way and finding comfort in loneliness despite being seen as a social figure. There’s also discussion about mental health, public perception, and how fame comes with its own disadvantages. He even clears the air around speculation regarding his weight loss.
In the last segment, he speaks about the realities of launching star kids. From his creative process to his deepest insecurities and the stories behind iconic films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, this episode reveals the other side of the story of a man who has always been much more than just the controversies surrounding him.
