"This doesnt even anger me it just makes me sad," wrote Karan Johar
A comedian's mimicry of Karan Johar on a TV show has left the Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani director visibly upset. It so happened that on Sunday night, Karan Johar shared a statement on his Instagram stories and talked about a comedian mimicking him "in poor taste." He recounted the experience while he was watching television with his mother. Without name-checking the show or the comedian, Karan Johar wrote, "I was sitting and watching television with my mom…and saw a promo of a reality comedy show on a supposedly respectable channel… a comic was mimicking me in exceptionally poor taste…I expect this from trolls and faceless and nameless people but when your own industry can disrespect someone who has been in the business for over 25 years it speaks volumes about the times we live in…this doesn't even anger me it just makes me sad!”
Take a look at Karan Johar's post below:
Film producer and a dear friend of Karan Johar, Ektaa Kapoor shared his statement on her Instagram Stories and extended her support. “Happened so many times! Ugly humour sometimes on shows. And even at award functions. And then they expect you to attend! Karan please ask them to imitate one movie or classic of yours,” Ekta wrote. Karan reposted the story and replied, “Love you Ektu.”
