Mission Impossible featuring Sushubh
Well. Let me clarify something. I have nothing against Karan Johar or any other individual. Everything written here is personal opinion and nothing is aimed to defame anyone.
Amidst all the crap stuff, I am busy in… in my daily routine, I get to meet some nice people on the net. And one of these nice souls has decided that she would not let me have few hours of peace in the day. While my issues with her are quite a lot more complicated than what they seems, here is one little challenge she put up for me. Do a post on Karan Johar praising him. And the post has to be genuine!
Karan Johar… the dude who made my life miserable by:
1. Making real crappy movies about nothing but gloss.
2. Making it ever crappier by putting his face on the Television Set through Koffee with Karan.
3. Continues to annoy me with his egoistic comments in interviews and what not.
How the hell am I supposed to come up with a genuine post praising him! It seems quite impossible. I am tempted to give up but absolutely find myself helpless in doing that in front of the person who challenged me…
The guy hires some of the biggest names in the industry. Develops a script giving each of them a memorable role, which manages to fool almost every soul in this country and abroad. Spends a huge amount of money in making these movies but manages to recover quite a lot more from it. There is no word hovering around reality in his dictionary.
People live in palaces, travel in helicopters, businesses are run by robots so you stay in your homes 24×7. You have enough time to sing songs on the roadsides without worrying about the clients and you have gals wearing the weirdest of cloths in the parties happening at your place.
Colleges looks like campuses sponsored by DKNY and Versace. There is nothing like poverty or financial problems with the students. Your drive Porsche or Mercedes whichever matches the surroundings. You pretend to be the coolest people around with 10 guys believing you are the best thing to happen to their lives.
What good does it do to our film industry? Are these movies any better than Mithun Da movies? Not for me. I had rather watch a B-Grade movie showing Mithun killing three thugs with a single bullet with little help from a chakku lying in his pocket than a posh movie with gloss all around the movie set.
Damn, I am going to lose this challenge. I think I have already lost it. Do I feed bad? No, I am kinda proud that I told the truth here. There is nothing good in the guy named Karan Johar or the kind of movies he makes and tries to push them down our throat. The show named Koffee with Karan is a curse. Curse to Indian television, the worse thing to happen to Star World ever since they decided to go desi.
Sorry mate, the challenge was too tough for me to fulfill! I am not a debater, I just express what I feel like.

i love his movies, he is also known as the person who has never had a flop in his career till date. count that for the way he works. i watch english movies and they are great, so are they real, that there exists another world (constantine, matrix), no, but thats a movie you have to just beleive it for 3 hours, ya sometimes they drag, but what can the directors do they have to cater to all types of people.
coming to mithun da movies, what he does is also unreal but then the director for his movies cater to only one class of people, so we have sleaze, fights, tapori songs, etc.
For karan johar he has his own audience , so he creates the movie which he thinks would be liked by them. If a film flops he would know that the film was not liked, but he never got a flop.
and how can you not like koffee with karan, it is such a great show, celebrity interviews at its best, the rapid fire round is great. its a fun show. and its bad that starworld is going desi. really bad.
