Koffee With Karan: Karan Johar Struggles To Name His Three BFFs In Industry

Karan Johar’s popular celebrity chat show — Koffee With Karan Season 8 has been treating viewers with some interesting revelations. Making celebrities spill the beans about their personal and professional lives is what the filmmaker does best in KWK. And the latest B-town stars who are ready to undertake the risk are Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra. Ahead of the episode later today, November 23, the promo video has been circulating online, leaving the masses excited for the interaction. In the promotional clip, the Student Of The Year co-stars turned the tables, urging KJo to name three of his best friends in the film industry. And Karan’s reaction to the question soon became a major highlight.

During the rapid-fire question-and-answer round, Sidharth Malhotra asked Karan Johar that it was his and Varun Dhawan’s turn to put themselves in Karan Johar’s position as the KWK host and ask the filmmaker some questions. When Sidharth wanted to know Karan’s “three best friends” in Bollywood, Karan looked taken aback by the question, nodding his head in confusion. Silenced by Varun and Sidharth by their random quiz, the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil director broke into an awkward laugh which was reciprocated by Sidharth and Varun.

Although Karan Johar might have avoided the question deliberately on KWK, the filmmaker has a strong opinion about tinsel town celebrities being lonely, and devoid of any friends. Back in 2016 while attending the Jio MAMI 18th Mumbai Film Festival, Karan revealed in an interview, “Movie people just don’t have friends. They have so much else to deal with… I’ve been a friend who has been a seasonal friend, and I’ve also made some seasonal friends. I do know what that feels like.” He added that everyone involved within the film circuit was “lost”, fighting to meet expectations, success, and “baggage”.

Coming back to Koffee With Karan 8, the upcoming fifth episode will also showcase Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan getting candid about their previous love affairs and their present love lives. Karan Johar will also jokingly talk about his three strategies which are “Beg, borrow, and steal” to make Salman Khan sign his movies.

Koffee With Karan 8 is aired every Thursday at midnight on Disney+Hotstar with a new episode. So far, Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday, Sunny Deol, and Bobby Deol have appeared on the Koffee Couch.
