Humility was Karan's virtue even as a child though his father Yash Johar, is one of the biggest names in Hindi Cinema. He loved everything about films and grew up to learn the nitty-gritty's of filmmaking. Fortunes changed for him almost overnight when his first directorial venture proved to be one of the most successful films of all time.

This movie also attracted the family audience all over the world, as it was full of heartwarming emotions. Another such movie directed by Karan was Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna which was highly acclaimed because of the much talked about topic of infidelity which was the theme of the movie.
Karan is a brilliant director as he knows the expectations of his audience and also knows how the Indian audience can be attracted and impressed by the emotions. All of his movies are family movies and so the age group of the audience varies.
His talk show, Koffee with Karan, also became a huge success due to its endearing and easy nature that allowed fans to know their favorite stars closely. His latest venture, Student of the Year, is a very young and frothy film that portrays the new age campus life and the spirit of competition in the youth. It serves as the launch pad for three new actors - Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt.
Karan's films gave Indian films a new appeal in the international market. All of them have grossed record-breaking revenues and enhanced the image of Bollywood films. He is regarded as one of the best filmmakers in the industry today and has carved a niche for himself.
Karan Johar is an all-round entertainer. It is his carefree, easy and down to earth nature that won him many friends. But it has also given rise to groundless rumors. However, one look at his track record would clarify that he is a filmmaker of immense potential who is envied beyond measure. We wish Karan loads of luck in his career and hope he comes up with ever more entertaining movies.
