Karan Johar is not just a brilliant filmmaker, but also a fantastic host. The filmmaker-producer often hosts several award shows and is lauded for his hosting skills by fans and celebrities. Karan even runs his own chat show, which is called Koffee With Karan. However, Karan received the worst criticism from veteran actress Jaya Bachchan. The senior actress criticised Karan for speaking too loudly on the stage.
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Karan Johar was asked about a memory of the criticism he received for hosting skills. To this, the filmmaker went down memory lane and said, "That I speak too loudly when I am on the stage even though there’s a mic. This Jaya (Jaya Bachchan) aunty told me once. She said ‘Karan you are on the mic, why are you shouting?’ I was like I am trying to be energetic. She said you have a mic and that’s what it is for, you don’t need to scream when you are out speaking."
Meanwhile, Karan Johar has returned with the new season of his celebrity chat show, Koffee With Karan. The 7th season of Koffee With Karan will premiere today (July 7) on Disney + Hotstar. Koffee With Karan 7 will premiere at sharp 7pm. Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt will be seen as the first pair of guests on Karan's celebrity chat show.
