with religion or with a community it has of course dollops of entertainment but also a huge dose of nobility attached to it i have always been associated with bubblegum movies but actually the only such movie i have ever made is kuch kuch hota hai i dont know i say why not your next movie is about a muslim abroad i am privileged to be in a position where i can use cinema as a platform to do interesting things i cast according to the role my endeavour is to make films that make a difference people say oh he makes family films but i have only made one family film but i will never make a film just for the sake of sending a message or one that is wellintended unlike the perception around it it is not a movie about terrorism it is not a movie about a religion i may even do a songanddance routine i miss having 100 dancers dancing in a row in my films films connect if they have to and dont if they dont have to bollywood director karan johar has never shied away from experimenting whether or not it is followed is not for me to worry about with a new television show and a film in the new year he is a busy man once again sometimes it worked at other times it didnt but that never deterred johar will we ever see sociallyrelevant films being made in bollywoodi am going to do my bit you have a point to make then why do you limit yourself to the rich and the uppermiddle class people tend to generalize for the wrong reasons excerpts from the interviewyour movies have dealt with a variety of themes from extramarital relationships to homosexuality to islam what will be nextmaybe after all those deviations i will go back to a happy family saga a multistar family story and if i dont take advantage of this platform then how dare i be a filmmakerif that is not what i am about i want to know how many companies do that he is one of the hugest stars in the country one of the best actors we have but having said that i am also completely capable of dabbling with different demographics and topography koffee was niche this one is more mainstream so far you have worked with a limited cast i would be really stupid not to constantly leverage that probably it was too heavy and topical to go down well with the mass market now let me go back to doing something conventional because that does seem to meet audience demands from themes like loving your parents to loving another mans wife he has tried it all
