After the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, a book of debates started in the Bollywood industry including the heated debate of ‘insiders vs outsiders’. Many fans and celebrities started targeting the nepotism group of the industry and blamed them for the actor’s demise. Filmmaker Karan Johar became the center of attention for all the trolls and memes after SSR’s death. People started bashing him for supporting only ‘star kids’. All these led the ‘Kalank’ filmmaker to take a break from social media.

On the occasion of India’s 74^th Independence Day, Karan Johar has finally made a comeback in the social media after a break of 2 months. Sharing a picture of India’s National Flag, the ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ dedicated this post to our great nation filled with a treasure trove of culture, heritage, and history. He wished everyone a Happy Independence Day.

Karan’s caption read, “To our great nation....a treasure trove of culture, heritage, and history.... #happyindependenceday ... JAI HIND”

After the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, the ‘My Name Is Khan’ director took to his Instagram and shared a picture with the late actor. He expressed how he blamed himself for not being in touch with the ‘Dil Bechara’ actor for the past year.

He wrote, “I blame myself for not being in touch with you for the past year..... I have felt at times like you may have needed people to share your life with...but somehow I never followed up on that feeling...will never make that mistake again...we live in very energetic and noisy but still very isolated times ...some of us succumb to these silences and go within...we need to not just make relationships but also constantly nurture them....Sushants unfortunate demise has been a huge wake-up call to me ...to my level of compassion and to my ability to foster and protect my equations.....I hope this resonates with all of you as well....will miss your infectious smile and your bear hug ....”

On the professional front, Karan Johar will be next directing his magnum opus ‘Takht’. This is a multi-starrer movie which has the ensemble cast of Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Anil Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Janhvi Kapoor, and Bhumi Pednekar. The shooting of this project has been currently put on hold amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
