Karan Johar plays down Kangana's nepotism remarks

Kangana took a dig at Karan when she appeared in one of the episodes of his chat show Koffee With Karan

Film-maker Karan Johar says actress Kangana Ranaut's remarks about him promoting nepotism in the film industry doesn't hold true for him, adding that she made "sweeping statements" to make an impact.

Kangana, known for her brazen honesty, took a dig at Karan when she appeared in one of the episodes of his chat show Koffee With Karan. She called him the "flag-bearer of nepotism" in Bollywood.
Karan expressed his views when a social media user, during a live chat session on Twitter, asked: "Was Kangana correct about nepotism?"



He posted: "Not entirely! She made an impact with her sweeping statements! That was fun... for her! And the show."

The year 2016 was a difficult one for Karan as his film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil got into trouble due to the presence of Fawad Khan.

Now, Karan hopes that he gets to spend a year without offending anyone.



Asked about his biggest achievement, the filmmaker said it is surviving Twitter.
