The scripted side of KWK is Karan’s actions towards Janhvi and Jacqueline. Karan Johar, A well-known Bollywood filmmaker is widely known as the Nepo King. This big bull of Bollywood is the reason for many non-talented star kids to enter the Industry and many talented self-made actors to leave Bollywood. He recently grabbed the spotlight by flaunting his style with the tag he got as ‘NEPO KING’. He was spotted wearing a white t-shirt which had ‘Nepo King’ written on it.
There are also many speculations that the Koffee With Kara show is exclusively to promote Alia Bhatt. No one has ever confirmed it, But the comparison between Janhvi Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandez is proof of Karan being a Nepo King.
When Karan Johar asked Jacqueline the rapid-fire questions to give titles to actresses in the Industry. Jacqueline said An actress with a perfect body is Katrina Kaif. An actress with the right attitude is Deepika Padukone and the actress with the finest quotes is Priyanka Chopra. And as she did not mention Alia Bhatt but she mentioned the self-made actresses, Jacqueline was never seen on the Koffee With Karan couch after this episode.
The case with Janhvi Kapoor is different. Janhvi Kapoor was asked ‘Who is the most powerful couple brand in the Industry, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor or Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh?’. Janhvi’s answer looked so fake to the viewers and got brutally trolled. She said, ‘Alia and Ranbir. I just think Alia is the biggest star of the country, she is the hero. Anything with Alia wins’. Though her answer seemed scripted and fake, this impressed Karan Johar. After this season, Janhvi was offered four films and got a breakthrough in her career.
Coming to the Koffee With Karan, This talk show is one of the most watched and the most hated talk shows. The exposure that he gets either way on a positive note or a negative note. He takes it as a privilege. Many actors are now refusing to attend Koffee with Karan like Anushka Sharma, and Ranbir Kapoor etc. But these actors have also attended the talk show multiple times during their initial stage of careers. But when they got fame and no longer needed shows to get exposure, they are now refusing to encourage those talk shows.
