Karan Johar talks about film fraternity WhatsApp chats: ‘If those leak, I’d have to move to London because they’re…’ | Bollywood-OxBig News Network

Karan Johar reveals about Bollywood WhatsApp groups

During a conversation with Barkha Dutt for the Mojo Story, an excited audience member mentioned that Karan probably must be part of the most exciting WhatsApp groups in Bollywood. The audience member then asked whether he would ever think about making a movie or writing a book about those conversations.

Karan was surprised by the question, but he answered. “If anyone ever got access to those WhatsApp groups about me and many of my friends in the fraternity, I think we would have to move to London. We may not be able to continue living in our city,” Karan said. 

Karan, who is known to be a central figure in the Hindi film industry’s social circles, explained that the discussions within these groups are anything but filtered.

“Because let me tell you, they are very candid, honest, and sometimes very b**chy analysis of our immediate environment and what is going on. We are fashion critics, we are movie critics. We are critics of everything in that group. Everyone has an opinion, and none of us can ever put those opinions out there,” Karan said.
