"I felt that it was one of the most honest episodes and the most heartfelt episodes I did with Deepika and Ranveer," Karan Johar said
Filmmaker Karan Johar shut down his trolls for once and for all. On the latest episode of Koffee With Karan 8, Karan Johar addressed his trolls and also spoke about the first episode of the season, after the premiere of which Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh were trolled for their honest confessions about their initial years of dating (more on that later). Speaking of the episode, Karan Johar said, "I felt that it was one of the most honest episodes and the most heartfelt episodes I did with Deepika and Ranveer. I think all three of us kind of came clean on so much of our emotional heft, so many of our feelings. And then there was a ridiculous kind of aftereffect. I just want to put it out there that episode angered me, and the reaction angered me. I thought it was one of our best episodes."
The director added, "They (Deepika and Ranveer) were outstandingly honest. They were earnest. They spoke so much. They shared so much. They were so gracious. And then you're f****** talking about some nonsense. I am like, what do you know about somebody else's personal life and marriage? Tu apne ghar pe dekh na (Look at what's happening at your own home) is what I wanted to tell them. I wanted to show them my f****** middle finger. I am like, you know, just shut up."
Karan Johar also added how he is often trolled for his sexuality too. He added that the trolls don't even spare his kids and his mom. "They're talking to me about my sexuality, they talk to me about being a single parent, they bring up my kids, that one really f******. They talk about my mother having raised me not well enough to take that decision right. I'm like who the f*** are you," Karan Johar said.
