Every tear that you shed when you watch a film of mine is a dollar in my account said Karan Johar one of the top influential persons in the Hindi film industry. You weep and I laugh all the way to the bank,” Karan said on a lighter note.<\/p>\n
Among the other projects that Dharma Productions, which is currently gearing up for the Diwali release of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, is a Dhyan Chand biopic. “We will make that film when we get the casting and the time right,” he said.<\/p>\n
All through the conversation, Johar touched upon aspects of the Mumbai movie industry that make it such a unique beast. Talking about his love for film music, he quipped, “Why do you a need a therapist when you have Hindi film songs?”<\/p>\n
About his shot at acting in Anurag Kashyap’s Bombay Velvet, Johar said, “There were too many gap days and too much hanging around doing nothing. I was bored with the process.<\/p>\n
That is probably why nobody has offered me another role, not even a bad one that I can refuse,” he concluded.<\/p>\n
“The success of a film like Kapoor & Sons is proof that the audience is evolving faster than the filmmakers. Many of us in the industry, including me, are caught in a time warp.”<\/p>\n
Kapoor & Sons, bankrolled by Johar’s Dharma Productions, had a gay protagonist. “Six actors rejected the role because they were scared to play a homosexual character.<\/p>\n
Fawad Khan, who took the part and owned it, is not only a great actor but also a brave one,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
