Filmmaker Karan Johar is currently judging the Colors dance reality show ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’ along with Madhuri Dixit and Nora Fatehi.
Karan opened up about why he is not giving blunt feedback to the contestants on the show.
In an interview with Indian Express, the filmmaker said, ‘I am much more judgmental than I am allowed to be. Sometimes they have to tell me to calm down on my judgments. Especially when it comes to Jhalak, everyone is a celebrity and thus quite sensitive and vulnerable. I have to sugar-coat myself extra to make my point at times.’
He also addressed the claims that contestants on the show often perform to impress Karan as he is one of the most renowned filmmakers in the country. Karan said, ‘I think everybody is so stressed about their performance, that impressing me is the least of their problem. Everyone is trying to get their steps and expressions right. Also, for me, Madhuri Dixit or even Nora Fatehi, we try to make them as comfortable for everybody. We are all part of one family.’
On the work front, Karan Johar is all set to make his comeback as a director with ‘Rocky and Rani ki Prem Kahani’, co-starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt.
