Karan Johar reveals how he masters the art of staying relevant despite online trolling
Karan didn’t shy away from the fact that he often rubs people the wrong way, especially online. But rather than tone it down, he finds joy in the disruption.
Renowned filmmaker Karan Johar has announced a stoppage on pre-release screenings for films backed by Dharma Productions. The unanticipated move is in order to maintain a better movie-watching experience. Karan Johar and Apoorva Mehta made the announcement with a signed statement.
The letter reads, “For years, rather decades, you have firmly stood by us at Dharma Productions. Supporting our films, sharing our dreams, and celebrating our victories. Your faith in us has been a driving force throughout our journey. And we’d like to take this moment to extend our deepest and heartfelt gratitude to you all. Each coverage, review, and feedback has been invaluable to us. And they have undeniably helped us make our films reach audiences far and wide.”

We believe it will help in maintaining the excitement of the cinematic experience for all.”
