Karan Johar Is Scared For His Own Film In Ghost Stories, Here’s Why

Filmmaker Karan Johar, who has directed one of the four segments of the upcoming episodic Netflix film “Ghost Stories”, says the horror-thriller should make for a great community viewing experience.

Talking about “Ghost Stories”, Johar said: “I feel scared for my own film. I think other films in this anthology are really scary and my films for other reasons scare me. I think it will take a lot of time to talk about our individual films but we just want to say that we are feeling really excited for it. It’s a really unique concept of anthology.”

Johar added that his upcoming film will be a great community experience. He said: “‘Ghost Stories’ comes under horror genre which people like to watch together. It will be a great community viewing experience. People like to watch and enjoy these kind of films together and they like to feel scared together while watching the film. It’s our (Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and Dibakar banerjee) third film together and it’s our second film with (producers) Ronnie Screwvala and Ashi Dua. We all feel that our journey of anthologies may continue forever. Normally, people start their new year with a bang but we are going to start this year with scary feeling.”

Sharing her thoughts on being a part of “Ghost Stories”, Zoya said: and “I am really grateful that I got the opportunity to work in this (horror) genre I am very excited for it. It is releasing on 31st December in the mid-night. I am just waiting for the reactions now.”
