Unknown Facts About Karan Johar:

The man who makes the mom’s of the whole of India cry by his emotional scenes in the films, himself is a mumma’s boy. It is often seen that Hiroo Johar is the person for whom the heart of KJo throbs the most. He has even stated that he might give up marrying a girl just for the sake of his mother. And as said, we also see him do so in the near past.
- The so called ‘Poster Boy Director’ is himself tossed up in finding the right partner.
The films under Dharma Productions mostly depict a love story of two or more people which all ends up in a happy situation, but this doesn’t seem to be sounding when the director’s own life comes into action. As stated by self, he is a living irony for the whole world as he is not able to find an idle partner for his life.

Yes! Like every other daddy, even Yash Johar wanted to his son to join the action phenomenon and was ready to introduce him into the box office under the home banners of Dharma Productions. Karan himself stated in the talk show ‘Koffee with Karan’, that his dad once said, “Paanch che kilo kam kar do, aur hero ban jaao.” I know some of you may burst out of your seats laughing hard but this is the fact.
- Karan was keen on the ‘K’ numerology.
Karan was very superstitious about the fact that he always wanted his movies to start with the alphabet ‘K’ as he thought that it was lucky for him. All the blockbuster under his tag have the ‘K’ tag intact. Movies like ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khusi Kabhie Gham, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and My Name is Khan.’ Though he gave up this belief post the release of Lage Raho Munna Bhai as he realized the actual truth.
- Karan commenced his career as an actor.
Even though ‘Bombay Velvet’ is touted as his full fledged acting debut namely ‘Kaizad Khambatta’, it is not the acting debut of the boy.
