Karan Johar- One in a Million!

By Rohini Nadia


Karan Johar adorns many feathers in his hat. He is ace at all aspects of filmmaking be it acting, directing, producing or scriptwriting. He has given Bollywood some of the most cherished films. Karan is one of the most well renowned Bollywood personalities. Infact he is one of the first directors who became a household name when the audiences started recognizing him and got familiar with his work. This was a rare occurrence back then!!

Karan has created some of the blockbusters, most of which has starred the King Khan, like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai which bagged numerous awards. It was also Karan's most successful start up as a director. This movie became a huge hit as it was a beautiful blend of romance and family drama. Also the movie was highly acclaimed amongst the audience abroad and many youngsters followed it as a cult.

His other movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham , which was the romantic drama, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, whose theme was adultery and My name is Khan, which received both positive and negative reviews, became box office hits.

In addition to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Karan has directed Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and My Name is Khan. All these films have been commercially very successful. Currently Karan Johar is neck deep in work. He is busy juggling with the post production and marketing of his upcoming film Student of the Year starring Varun Dhawan, Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt.

It is for the first time that Karan Johar is launching a film with fresh faces. This very fact has increased the onus on the producer director making him more involved in the entire process. Karan has personally overlooked the detailing of the film.

Dharma Productions which is headed by Karan Johar has given a platform for many new directors to come up and showcase their talents. Karan Johar has accomplished the role as a director, producer, costume designer, screenwriter and a television host. In his own show, Coffee with Karan, that has fetched good ratings, it is all about the famous Bollywood celebrities coming to the show and sharing with the audience some of the secrets of their personal life as Karan questions them.

On the whole, Karan Johar has been very upbeat and enthusiastic about this project. Even the sets were brimming with energy due to so many young people present. It looks like an energy packed film with fun, laughter, competition and youthfulness!!
