What Karan Johar Said In The Video

It was in 2016, Karan during a discussion with Rajeev Masand and Anupama Chopra revealed that he was not happy that Aditya Chopra signed Anushka as the lead actress for Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. He said that he wanted to “completely murder” Anushka’s career in the industry.

For the unversed, the video has gone viral after Priyanka Chopra’s big revelation about being ‘cornered’ in Bollywood and that’s the reason she moved to Hollywood. Though PeeCee didn’t take anyone’s name, it was Kangana Ranaut who claimed that it was Karan Johar who was behind it.
