JUST IN! MNS workers protesters station themselves outside Karan Johar's residence -view pic

Seems like this controversy is NOT going to end soon. After the unfortunate Uri attack, MNS have demanded all the Pakistani artists to leave India ASAP and have even threatened Karan Johar of boycotting Ae Dil Hai Mushkil as it has Pakistani actor Fawad Khan. Karan v/s MNS war has just got uglier. The breaking news is that few MNS workers are protesting outside KJo’s house in Bandra. It is also reported that police have beefed up security as they have assured the filmmaker that he won’t be harmed and should relax. Wonder what KJo must be going through now. Let us tell you that Karan is extremely affected with the negativity and had opened up about it with a news channel.


“I understand the anger and the anguish that surround us and I empathise, my heart bleeds for the lost lives. There is nothing that can justify this terrible feeling of terror. Then you are faced in a situation such as this (asking for ban on Pak artistes). If this was truly a solution, one would take it,” the director told a news channel. “But this is not a solution. I don’t believe it is. The larger forces have to come together and sort the situation and this cannot be banning talent or art,” explains the director.






The 44-year-old filmmaker said he feels “vulnerable” while speaking about it publicly. “I feel vulnerable and scared while even saying this. I completely feel the pain and anger. If my film is targeted because of this, it will make me exceptionally sad because my intent was to put out a product out of love and nothing else,” said Karan.


When asked how he will deal with these threats, Johar said, “I don’t know… I beseech everyone to look at it holistically and understand the situation, that there is a larger situation here and it has nothing to do with banning talent. Let’s look at it from a larger perspective and find the answer.”


Karan added, “Sometimes, you just want to fold your hands and say, ‘We are creative industry. Please leave us alone. We make movies, we spread love. There are millions in the world, in our country who are happy with the work we do, allow us that…’ I think we should not be those soft targets anymore. We don’t matter in the scheme of things but we can make things happier and better.”


This entire controversy reminds me of Shah Rukh Khan’s My Name is Khan where the BJP party had created the same havoc. Wonder how far this will go…BollywoodLifers how much do you agree with Karan Johar. Post in your comments in the box below.
