The internet can be a wild place, full of armchair doctors and fashion police. Even a seasoned filmmaker like Karan Johar knows this. Recently, a picture of him looking quite a bit slimmer went viral. This led to a buzz online.
Folks on social media started worrying. They wondered if he was unwell. Some even asked outright if he was suffering from some illness. But Karan Johar, never one to shy away from a microphone, had something to say about all the talk.
Karan Sets the Record Straight
Karan stepped out at the ‘Dhadak 2’ trailer launch event. He used the moment to tackle the whispers about his weight. He didn’t beat around the bush. He explained his slimmer look is all about a new way of living. He’s been working hard on himself.
“My health is very good,” he stated. “I am happy that I have never felt weak.” He added that his weight loss has one simple reason: he’s made many changes. “I have changed my lifestyle a lot,” he shared.
So, for those keeping score, Karan Johar is very much alive and well. He wants everyone to know he plans to stay that way. “I am alive, and I will live,” he said. He had a direct message for the online chatterboxes: “I want to tell netizens that I want to live for many years, especially for my children.”
More Stories to Tell
Living a long life isn’t just for his kids. Karan also shared his professional desires. He wants to bring many more stories and films to his audience. He feels he has more gifts to share with the world.
He even addressed the chatter about his age and relationship status. “Thank you for saying I am 53 years old and single,” he quipped. “I hope others also pay attention to this compliment.” For the record, Karan Johar is a proud father to twins, Yash and Roohi. They were born in 2017 through surrogacy. So, while he might be single, his life is full.
