Karan is so eloquent. He can never be boring, like ANYTHING BUT BORING. I can listen to his stories repeatedly and still not be bored. He would make a cool hang out.

42:45 SRK❤

"Unabashedly and unapologetically" is Karan's new "Conjecture"

I love Karan Johar interviews and him as a person. They are so sincere and cathartic. He is so authentic. Loved Rocky aur Rani. Better than all the cgi action films which give me a headache after a while.

More than cinema, I prefer Karan talking about himself and life. He is a child and sensitive at heart.

He is the best, he wants to sound frivolous but he is very intelligent and it’s an intelligent movie that he has made. I have lived in Delhi and can totally relate to the conversation and mannerisms of Rocky portrayed in the movie. Everyone did a wonderful job in this movie and kudos to KJ for making such a masterpiece. There are so many nuances and progressive messages in such a subtle way that people who are deep and sensitive would understand. It’s a beautiful work, thanks to him for entertaining us in such a soul satiating way❤

I started watching Bollywood movies after watching Ranbir Kapoor.I am really happy that I watched every movie of R.K and also discovered some talented actors from hindi film industry.

When he's talking about love and suffering when love is not returned, I understand why his films are so sincere and why I love them so much.... He feels the same way as I do.

This man speaks so positively and happily about everything. The way he is narrating the stories. He seems to understand emotions well. The way he laughs off even if he's made fun of. You need a big heart for that. One of the well known directors of India. Films like KKKG / KKHH actually made me feel like this is "BOLLYWOOD" at times. Big Family And Emotional drama haha. Bollywood is still somewhere known for such films. And it's good only.

We love see SRK and Karen should work together once again. ❤

Karan Johar so eloquent as always , listening to him is like a communication coaching class

Karan seems to understand emotions so well. I would love for him to direct/write a film about normal life. For example a modern day 'Raincoat'. A Production without Manish Malhotra designs and big houses, foreign locations. He is practical and intelligent yet his la la land movies portray him as someone frivolous.

It's lovely to hear Karan Johar talk ❤❤❤

Wow! What a brilliant combo, KJo at Sit with Hitlist. He has let it go all.. Fabulous!

Love him or hate him, u just cannnot ignore or imagine Bollywood without Karan. More power to you Karan❤keep rising higher

SRK IS EMOTION

52:50 SRK

Karan Johar is always a pleasure to listen 🎶 to..... pure bliss to ears

It's kind of sad that Karan can't publicly talk about his love for a man even in FREAKING 2023 because he's scared or conscious of the backlash!

You need a friend like SRK in your life!

From the whole Bollywood, i only loved to watching Priyanka Chopra,Zoya Akhtar, Sharukh Khan and Karan Johar's Interview. They are so so sooo good.

Karan always wears his heart on his sleeve. It's a delight to hear him invariably...he's transperent to the core...

Karan Johar is so intelligent, loving this interview. Feels like listening forever.

The world needs more Karan in these times. He is progressive in his thinking and ahead of his years. Long live your success Karan. 🙏🏽

Karan is always a joy to watch and listen to him talk

Fully agree with Karan about Saree. Saree is 101% better than any gowns for any Indian ladies for award shows or Red Carpet 👍

The best interview of Karan! Thanks for shooting this ❤

Thoroughly enjoyed this one & a half hour conversation.Thank you Mayank for making it real. There's just no doubt of Karan's level of intellect & sincerity. Everyone needs a friend like Karan in their life! BTW this podcast is like watching a film in its entirety. I know I'm sounding a bit selfish though, when time's up I just feel it went by too fast. ❤

Karan is well spoken and always fun to listen. He is a smart filmmaker also and knows the audience. Loved this interview.

An excellent interview - thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

Karan can never be boring . I truly love him for the honest person he shows us audience as we cannot know him on a personal level. Kudos ❤

Most people judge Karan with his trivial Koffee with Karan rapid fire persona that is often controversial in nature and also his nepo baby connection but his interviews are always absolute fun to watch. He has a good vibe and perspective about everything and speak so eloquently

Rocky Rani was actually Fantastic film.... This is how mass films should be made....

The way he thinks about movies and characters is brilliant. He is such a pure soul. I don’t know why people don’t like this guy ! He’s awesome in every possible way❤️

This interview was really well done. So many new things. Loved that snippet on karans first ever interaction with SRK.

@12:10 very true... Kya karu, dil beech me aa gaya... Love knows no pre designed tick boxes... It just is. ❤

Srk sir is one of the best hain ki hum to sochke hairan and pareshan hote hain ki srk sir ko Pakistan supporter and lots of hated speech about sarukh sir ko kaha jata Hain.. But but Haters also should to know that study and go teach and learn beyond your WhatsApp University.. Asal duniya mein dhoondo SRK sir hamare desh ke liye kya nhi kiye... Noeth South and East West Srk the one of the best ❤

One of the best interviews simply because i may have followed almost all interviews of Karan and still didn’t know half the things that were discussed here. Great interview Mayank

Brilliant interview ! Loved every moment of it !

Just finished watching Jawan ..what a beautiful movie. SRK ❤

Karan is a joy to listen!! Intelligent yet a gr8 listener/learner, multitalented n accomplished yet humble, approachable n warm yet so boundary respectful.....huh, Karan talk more!! Love you! ❤ This interviewer is so exhausting tho'....

I haven't managed to watch Rocky and Rani in theatre. Waiting for it to appear on Amazon or Netflix

I want SRK in Karan movie

I loved Karan since 2016 when I started to know Indian movie cinema n still love him. More kudos to him.

Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation! ❤

❤ What a lovely conversation He spoke his heart out Got to know “The Karan Johar” Thankyou Mayank 🙏

Karan johar interview without mentioning srk never possible 😂❤

Good to see KJ being more brave in his mental health space...his evolving is directly proportionate to his quality of movies, not that his earlier movies were any less, just that their purpose & bandwith were different.

this is the movie I can watch multiple times. Just loved the movie. I think KJ has done a wonderful job. After many years watched a movie without any complain. Fantabulous. Hated Jawan, Pathan, Ayan M movie forgot the name etc but loved this movie.

Such beautiful questions! Loved this interaction. Well done Midday

He should Make a movie Like My Name is Khan

TOP class interview...KJO is really fun to watch n hear.

We love you RK and so proud of you

What an awesome interview!!! ❤

Awesome stuff Mayank ! Keep em coming

Karan Johar is at his best when interviewed than when interviewing. Also, it’d be quite a feast and coup to cast Ranbeer and Ranveer together. Hope, when someone does that

This how an interview looks when interviewer and interviewee both are in love with one person. MidDay use to ask if not hard some tricky questions! Looks like those days are gone!

love your interviews, mayank!

thank you karan for saying schedule the we learnt in school and not how people say when we started working. shed-yule > skey-jyule

So much trivia is this fabulous interview!

1:00:52 - most interesting part starts around this time

i respect Mr. Karan....whenever he speaks ...it feels authentic....it takes alot of courage and bravery ...hats off❤..thank you for this ....

I love all Karan Johar interviews.. a brilliant producer and director..

21:43 "have a drink.. perhaps not" almost sounded like "have a drink, perhaps snort.." And I was like, here we go again..! 😂

Always so articulate:).

26:10 😂. He let the cat out of the bag.

"Abu Salem" was beeped @ 42:58 Abu Salem was the right hand man od Dawood Ibrahim. Thank me later👍🏻

21:43 - Did he just say "HAVE SNORT" 😂😂😂😂

Great interview ❤❤ Karan is so eloquent ❤❤

I think this was a great interview with Karan.I liked the way he was honest about everything he said.he has changed a lot after he had his kids.he was very sincere about his work and the love for his children ,I respect him for that.his passion for his work is genuine.I had a very different opinion about him earlier.he is a good person at heart and he really takes care of all the people who work with him.may he gain more wisdom as he grows older with age.and I hope he is more accessible to the actors who r not star kids ,and they can also deliver if given a chance to work with u.I admire the way u love your mother.god bless you

Wow. We learnt many things about Karan and some bits of history of his family and his first meeting with Shahrukh Khan. This interview was amazing. I love such long interviews! Mayank..you were amazing too.

Ranbir Kapoor Is Love❤

Even i started getting grey hair at young age karan. Touchè

Loved this conversation .. he is so articulate

Waiting for karan johar film with combo of Ranbir Kapoor Ranveer Singh Alia Bhatt n Deepika Padukone

Many congrats on the success of Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani where are we getting the Vasan Bala announcement.

Such a good interview Mayank sir it was such a pleasure

I think this is one of the finest interviews I have seen off late.

I just love this unapologetic person unapologetically❤

Loved the interview. Host is amazing.

May be Karan can make a silsila with Ranbir (poet Amitabh) & ranveer( sashi kapoor) together. what say peeps

Who do u think was the person he was talking abt that he loved 7 to 8 years and broke his heart ? I though Sid and then he said he’s not from the industry 🤔 who do u think guys ?

Hi Karan Sir please acknowledge Dev Saab more in ur movies like u gave used his iconic songs in ur last two directed movies please credit him also so that newer generation knows who Dev Anand was

KJ one of my favourite filmmakers. He is witty yet intelligent.

Thank you for bringing up Indradhanush!

So much to get inspiration from, Karan Johar, is an institution in itself and I dont think even he knows, how in his journey, he is constantly inspiring, encouraging and giving the most deep rooted advice put up in the most simple references....! If I am able to instill even a fraction of a percententile of Karan Johar's life lessons and aspirations, I'd feel evolved and would be filled be such sense of achievement ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I can listen to Karan all day long!

Rk is the best actor ❤

Oh God , Nanking was in CP Later in East Patel Nagar ! My Father use to get rasmalai from there And we ate at Nanking

Karan u have changed a lot as a person.u r a good human being and u genuinely love and respect your staff and take care of them.\u love your mother and your kids so much.I had a different opinion about u but time and age has made a a better human being.may u always b the same.god bless u.

Be Happy Karan..god bless u ❤
