Noted director and producer Karan Johar has announced a new project! Though not much is known, we do know it features a debutant director and is an exciting, energizing new film from his production house, Dharma. Writing on social media, he gave away very little, but he did reveal, “What I can say with all my heart is that this film is one of Dharma’s proudest films!
Check out what Karan Johar had to say:
“When I began producing films (once I stepped into Dharma as an active part of the company) in 2003 with Kal Ho Naa Ho – the idea was to empower filmmakers and storytellers…to pay it forward. We got it right…we got it wrong – but the intent was always to put out stories and films we believed in.
The motive was only to entertain, seek acclaim, or simply have fun at the movies!
I am so proud to say that our next offering is the 24th debutant filmmaker we have introduced to Hindi cinema!
(Trivia for trollers: 90% of them are ‘outsiders)
I rarely write notes before the release of a film, but few films excite me, energize me, and inspire me the way the process of this film has…
Our collaborative producer and debutant director have been on the journey of this film for 4 years…the director did nothing else but put his head down and work relentlessly on his film – combating pandemic delays and other unforeseen circumstances. I am inspired by the team of actors and technicians who gave the film and the team so much consistent support and love. One can never predict commercial success, BUT what I can say with all my heart is that this film is one of Dharma’s proudest films!
I say this as a filmmaker and an audience…
I pray for the team that the audience is coloured in the colour of their passion.
See you at the movies!
Karan Johar”
The post on Instagram had an orange background, which many say is an easter egg for the film Kesari Chapter 2, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, which will feature Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday. Based on Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat’s book—The Case That Shook The Empire, the film tells the tale about the heroic life of C. Sankaran Nair. This film unravels the legendary courtroom battle that Sankaran Nair fought against the British Raj to uncover the truth about the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre. Sankaran Nair’s bravery ignited the freedom struggle across the country and is a testament to the power of fighting for the truth.
