Karan Johar Says They Tried Finding Replacement For The Rapid Fire Round On Koffee With Karan: 'Nobody Wants PR Nightmare'
Karan Johar recently shared that he and his Koffee With Karan team had tried to find the rapid-fire round of the show as it had been controversial many times.
New Delhi: The eighth season of the celebrity chat show ‘Koffee With Karan' is currently streaming with Karan Johar as the host. The show’s rapid-fire round is very popular among the viewers and any celebrities’ answer during this segment had become the talk of the town in the past. Karan Johar recently shared that he and his team had tried to find a replacement for the round as it had been controversial many times.
Talking to the media during an event, KJo said: "We are in a very sensitive climate currently mostly because of social media. Today, things can go out of proportion in a heartbeat. If someone says something, it draws reactions from the people on the Internet. People who come on my show, I have a responsibility towards them because I have invited them to my show. We tried finding a replacement for the Rapid Fire."
Karan further mentioned that he needs to ensure that whatever the guests on the show say, it doesn’t get misconstrued.
The director continued, "We kept coming back to finding a replacement to Rapid Fire and the sad thing is people are much more worried now than they were in the first few seasons. Nobody wants a PR nightmare. Everyone is so careful that you have to make sure that you change the language of Rapid Fire so that you will get something."
“There were times when people have answered with abandon, like most underrated and overrated, and answers were flowing. Today, I won’t answer those so how can I expect them? We all have built a sensitive climate. Social media has made us so much more sensitised. So, everyone is sensitive about what they are saying, what they are expected to say, fan clubs get angry, I don’t want any of that," he added.
‘Koffee with Karan’ season 8 streams on Disney+ Hotstar.
