Koffi with karan came back. But don’t bother watching, it’s bound to get boring.
Director and producer Karan Johar started his show with a well-rehearsed and well-delivered monologue. Two lines in it caught my attention: “I am your bio bubble of political wrongness in a world determined to be boring.”
Strong claim, one might say. and one that had no support when it came to the first episode of coffee with karan With Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. There was neither any political wrong, nor any fun- except the part where Ranveer Singh imitates Hrithik Roshan, Varun Dhawan, Kartik Aaryan, Ajay Devgn and Aamir Khan. And we won’t see any Khans on the couch.
coffee with karan Has chosen to be tone-deaf and has shown no courage to rediscover himself for new audiences in a changed Bollywood.

Karan Johar decided to have a serious chat with the stars on his couch for over two minutes.
The industry’s notoriety was brought up early in the episode, with Johar discussing how he and Bhatt never thought the show would ever return because of “whatever happened”.
Johar complains about ‘snake emoji’ coffee with karan Connected from now on. And the conversation was more or less about the snake emoji more than anything else. No content added, no insights shared from the long days that must have been horror for the fraternity – when the media, citizens and other actors pointed fingers. Only Ranveer Singh dared to drop the word ‘sibling bias’ twice. Which is astonishing.
It was very boring to watch this happen when three people who were directly affected by the stigma campaign against Bollywood in the wake of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death sat together. Karan Johar was called a ‘killer’, conspiracy theorists alleged, playing the role of Mahesh, Alia Bhatt’s father, and Deepika Padukone, who happens to be Ranveer Singh’s wife, in a WhatsApp chat exposé run by various news channels. There were subjects. ,
There was no discussion on this. Things we really wanted to talk about. Instead, some weird games like Ranveer Bingo and Alia Bingo took away almost 10 minutes of screen time.
absurd questions, absurd answers
Three out of four segments were games where the intimacy with the star was lost for some of the frivolous answers he had to give – who’s hotter, do you get on with your partner’s ex? And with that, we lost the relevance of coffee with karan Completely. A show that is supposed to be bold, is now trying to stay relevant without doing anything outlandish.
The rapid-fire round was also pretty forgettable as not a single gossip was coming out of it. God only knows why a staged audience was judging this particular period.
The little things that Alia shared about her relationship with Ranbir were sweet and few Raliya Fans should be thrilled. Ranveer, on the other hand, has been in a stable relationship and nothing was going for him other than talking openly about sex and sexuality. except the obstacle.
Thoughts are personal.
