Koffee With Karan 7: Karan Johar Denies Being Partial Towards Janhvi Kapoor And Grilling Sara Ali Khan!

Koffee With Karan Season 7 concluded with last week’s episode featuring Gauri Khan, Bhavana Pandey, and Maheep Kapoor. The guests were social media stars Tanmay Bhat, Kusha Kapila, Danish Sait, and Niharika NM. All four of them mentioned that he was indeed partial to Janhvi Kapoor in the second episode starring Sara Ali Khan.

Niharika NM mentioned how Karan Johar kept calling Janhvi Kapoor ‘hot’ in the episode but grilled Sara Ali Khan for staying in a broken house. As somebody who was raised by a single parent, I would’ve cried. That poor girl was so strong,” said Danish Sait. Kusha said, “And there were comments made about who’s hotter, who’s frugal with money, who’s going to get the next Dharma project.”

In the second episode of the season, Bollywood stars Sara Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor appeared. Karan went on to reveal why it might seem that he was partial. He said it was the first phase shot of the season and a technical error, causing Janhvi to win the hurdle for the rapid-fire round. But, when he was informed about the error, it was revealed that Sara had won it.

Karan said, “I love Sara, she’s also working with us—two feature films. We started our season shooting the Sara-Janhvi episode. He revealed there was a technical error after the rapid-fire round which showed Janhvi as the winner. Janhvi was so happy, and five minutes later we had to say it was a mistake. I felt so guilty that I started calling her hot, and that entire part was cut, and it came across that I was just being partial.”
