While revealing the first celebrity he tried getting on Koffee With Karan but failed to be veteran actress Rekha, Karan Johar said, “Well, I did bring it up once with Rekha ma’am, even as recently as a couple of seasons ago. I was very keen to have her appear on the show, but she wasn’t convinced. But after that, I felt she has such an exotic, beautiful mystery about her… it has to be protected always. So I didn’t push it after that.”
Who’s the other he failed to convince to feature on Koffee With Karan? Well, it’s his friend and mentor, Aditya Chopra. Talking about how getting him on the show would also be a challenge, Karan Johar said, “Will I ever have Adi on KWK… I mean, I think I’m not brave enough to even ask him, right.”
Debuted on November 19, 2004, on Star World India, Karan Johar’s talk show – Koffee With Karan is now steaming its seventh season on Disney+ Hotstar. While Vicky Kaushal and Sidharth Malhotra were the guests on last week’s KWK episode, this week Kabir Singh stars Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani will be seen getting candid and spilling the beans.
