Karan Johar has reacted to Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani success
Speaking with Times Now, Karan said, “I am feeling numb. I can’t even say I’m excited. I am too stunned for that. Main itne saare tareef hazm nahin kar pahunga (I won’t be able to process all these compliments).”
Karan added, “Somebody asked me if there was a checklist of things I wanted to say in the film. Of course not! Whatever I wanted to say came out organically. It wasn’t as if I was trying to thrust the messages into the plot. Of course, the themes such as gender subversion are very much part of my personal politics, as well as my writers. Reading all the pieces which saw what I was doing, was overwhelming. To receive so many messages from my own fraternity makes my heart so happy.”

The filmmaker went on to add, “I can’t express what I’m going through. I feel for the first time I am validated as an artiste. I agree My Name Is Khan got great reviews. But I couldn’t enjoy because of the controversies. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani was meant to be a family entertainer. I’d be lying if I said I was expecting this kind of reaction. Am I grateful for it? Yes. Am I thrilled that it has happened? Of course! Was I expecting it? No!”
In RARKPK, Alia plays Rani Chatterjee and Ranveer plays the role of Rocky Randhawa. It also stars Dharmendra, Jaya Bachchan, Tota Roy Chowdhury, Churni Ganguly, Khsitee Jog, and Shabana Azmi among others.
