Karan Johar No More Koffee?

If  sources in the know are to believed  Karan  Johar’s controversial  celebrity talk show Koffee With  Karan has come to an inglorious end.

The channel  Star World which  was  hosting the show  would no longer be  existent in  India.Koffee With Karan also goes.Somewhat like throwing the the bathwater with  the baby.

Says  a source close to  the development, “Plans to shut down Star World were afoot for  some time now.And Star  had decided  to move  Karan Johar’s chat show to another  channel owned by the  group. But now with all  the  unsavoury controversy surrounding the  chat show  after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Star has  decided to  close it down.”

This means, no more carping with Karan Johar? Thus ends the  bitching and backbiting  on Koffee With  Karan  which had  gotten several stars including Deepika Padukone,  Sonam Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor,  not to mention Hardik Pandya,  into deep trouble,  and about which  Ranbir Kapoor has famously commented, “I told him (Karan) I don’t want to come. Me and Anushka actually going to protest and get the entire film industry together to stop this because it’s not fair. He’s making money out of us. We come and we get screwed through the air. It’s not right.”

The  below-the-belt comments on Koffee With Karan  about actors  who were  not  the host’s personal friends  had  gone  beyond  all levels  with decency. In one episode Alia Bhatt was  heard asking,  ‘Sushant Singh Rajput, who?”

A superstar once told me he had been ‘forced’ to come  on  the show by his wife and  the  questions and answers were all  doctored  from beforehand to create controversies.
