Tell me, who doesn't want to have a family to extend himself/herself? Karan Johar More Quotes by Karan Johar More Quotes From Karan Johar I, of course, was born as if I was a movie star in my head. Even though I had nothing, in my head I was always royalty. My mother always said, 'I don't know where you came from'. I didn't have their value system. And I always lived beyond my means. Karan Johar valueyoubornmother Whether or not we communicate it, I definitely seek my mom's acceptance and approval for everything. She has a strong commercial sense of movies and is a quintessential audience. When she doesn't like something, I know there is reason to worry. When she loves something, there is reason to celebrate. Karan Johar celebratemomstrongacceptance I don't claim to have led a saintly life. There have been a lot of one-sided love stories in my life. Karan Johar claimmy-lifelovelife I remember breaking the news to both my parents that I wanted to be a director, and they both looked very doubtful.

Karan Johar condemnmeterrorismcountry I met Hugh Jackman, and I was like, 'I love your movies!' And, of course, he asked, 'Which one?' A reasonable question, but I blanked completely. In that moment, I couldn't remember a single film that Hugh Jackman had done. So I copped out. 'The recent one!' And that was one of his biggest disasters. Well done, me.

For fear of hurting them, breaking their heart, or worrying them. Karan Johar youfearhearttime Honesty is wonderful, but I suspect it's also overrated. Karan Johar honesty-isalsohonestywonderful Everyone thinks I land in a chopper on top of my building and I have the most cushy existence. Could you understand that I might have the most messed up life myself? Karan Johar understandmyselfyoulife I am always acting, be at a party, at work or in office. My attitude changes from meeting to meeting, from being serious to intense to funny, depending on who is in the room. Karan Johar i-amworkattitudefunny Sometimes new voices have the most spectacular vision. It is uncluttered and organic. Karan Johar organicnewvisionsometimes I love that first-time feeling that I can't build in myself anymore, where I can learn and emulate other filmmakers. Be it Ayan Mukherjee, Punit Mahotra, Karan Malhotra, Tarun Mansukhani or Shakun Batra, all of them have taught me something or the other. Karan Johar feelingmyselfmelove For good or bad, there is a certain level of generalisation when it comes to my work. I want to break that perception. My decision to direct 'Bombay Talkies' or to present 'The Lunchbox' is an attempt to do that. These are the films that gel well with my sensibility, and it's unfortunate, it's not the perception out there. Karan Johar badgooddecisionwork
