Like he said the Hindi audience would have rejected it and bashed him if he had made KGF, he must also know, no matter how much you market your Hindi movie in the south they would always reject it. It is the truth. Has always been happening with big movies aggressively marketed to the south.

Now i got a doubt why KJO made Alia work in 5 min role of RRR. He thought if Alia becomes hit in south then it will benefit them for brahmastra but we know what happened to Alia in RRR so that marketing strategy didnot work... I guess 😆


Kjo thinks he is smart , shrewd businessman but he is not 🤣 till now in denial , seems saw brahmastra trailer n got realised . Who dig for others will fall in it lol .victim mentality playing boring victim card . Takes time to accept the truth but time out . he can retire n needs help 🤣

Karan further opened up on how he himself looked for acceptance from others, when he decided to get into a different genre of filmmaking distinct from what he was making earlier. “When I saw movies like Lagaan getting nominated at the Oscars, I also tried to win awards with My Name is Khan

but eventually realised that I was neither here nor there with my films, so I went back to making the films I was passionate about."



lagta hai Karan swallowed a bottle of truth pills🤣

ab mujhe rona aa raha, karan has forever been that fat boy who was teased at school and now that he has got modern and hep he is trying to get to be center of all trendy things whether by hosting parties for all the beautiful people or by making films which have hit formula

his biography is a literal tearjerker 😂

But seriously, I think imluvbolly is spot on, he setting the stage for claiming brahmastra is conviction, conviction, orginality, game changer and conviction again

Nikhil Advani almost admitted Kal Ho Na Ho's blueprint was Dil Chahta Hai. He even wanted his It's the Time to Disco song to be better than Koi Kahe Kehta Rahe from DCH.

the song is a literal copy..

which is why I respect akhtar siblings especially Farhan more, dch was a huge breath of fresh air and original, which is why the archies type nepo productions are more disappointing coming from them

ye conviction ke aankhein abhi khul gaye. par Brahmastra toh uss zamaane mein shuru hua when KJO was still in the phase of “seeking validation”😆

yep seems plausible in kjo's brain but karan proposes, rajamouli disposes. 😂

rajamouli ne bhi koyi kachi goliyaan nahin kheli, used her smartly for hindi promotions with just enough role but kept focus on his heros which is what he has been doing since ages

Speaking to Film Companion, Karan said, “When I read the reviews of KGF, I’m like if we made this, we would be lynched. But here, everybody is like ‘Oh it was a celebration, a party’ and it was. I loved it. I loved it with all my heart. But I feel hum yeh banaate to? (If we had made this, then?)”


KGF dekhne ki try kiya maine, but mujhse nahi hua. so I don’t know how it is. is it really good, or bad?

Karan sach bol raha hain ya sour grapes reaction?😆



KJo wants to blame the audience for not accepting the films? Try making something good.


How about Sholay? Or even Gangs of Wasseypur? Or Satya? No one was lynched.


Truth is KJo's kinds of movies appeal to only a small section of the Indian audience. If he wants to produce KGF type movies, he should hire people who can do those movies and NOT interfere. Which means writers, directors, and actors who suit the roles. And deffo not try cheap tactics for promotion.

He can make a K3G and KKHH type drama also and it will be a hit. Indian audience is still corny. He needs to divert from pseudo intellectual stuff like ADHM
