Karan Johar Admits He Treated Sidharth, Varun & Alia Like Stars From Day One on Komal Nahta’s Game Changers Podcast

Karan

MUMBAI: Director Karan Johar shares a deep bond with Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt, and Varun Dhawan, whom he launched in Student of the Year. The three delivered a remarkable performance and journeyed their way up to becoming top stars of today. Recently, on Game Changers with Komal Nahta, Karan shared his experience working with them. When asked who he bet on before starting the film, he revealed how he met them. He revealed that he never treated them like newcomers and they performed like stars.

Karan revealed, saying, , “No, I'm telling the truth, I won't lie. For me, it was just that I told my team - Siddharth and Varun, these two were my assistants, and I met Alia for the first time when she came from school. And when I launched them, I told everyone on the set, the choreographer, the production, the designer, to treat these three like megastars.”

He further added how they are like friends to him, “They asked what it meant. I said, ‘If you give them that confidence, they will face the camera like stars. If you treat them like newcomers, they will give you the performance of newcomers.’ And they performed like stars. And all of them call me 'Karna'. They are like my friends. We did a 12-day workshop, and we four were together to get to know each other.

With Game Changers, Komal Nahta is set to redefine the landscape of Indian cinema conversations. Tune in to the YouTube channel for Game Changers!
