Renowned filmmaker Karan Johar marks his 52nd birthday today, commemorating not only a milestone in age but also reflecting on his journey filled with cinematic triumphs, personal revelations, and familial bonds. While Johar has carved a niche for himself in Bollywood with his iconic romantic dramas, today's spotlight shines on more than just his cinematic prowess. Famous for crafting tales of love and longing, from the iconic "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai" to the recent "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani," Johar has often found himself under the scrutiny of media lenses, particularly regarding his personal life.
In a recent interview, the filmmaker candidly addressed the topic of marriage, expressing a firm stance on his decision to forego it. "At 46, I can't be in a relationship," Johar asserted, highlighting the complexities of balancing personal commitments with his career and familial responsibilities. With unwavering honesty, he revealed his prioritization of self-discovery, stating, "I'm in a relationship with myself.
And when you are in one of those, you don't have either the space or the time for anyone else." Johar's introspective approach to his craft is evident in his films, notably the deeply personal "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil," which delves into the intricacies of unrequited love. Beyond the silver screen, the filmmaker's personal life took a profound turn with the arrival of his twins, Yash and Roohi, through surrogacy in 2017, honoring his late father's memory by naming his son.
