People said that use kya hogaya hai, konsi bimaari paal raha hai yeh Karan Johar. I want to tell everyone that my health is absolutely fine. I am very happy. In fact, I have never felt lighter on my feet.”
He added, “There’s only one reason behind the weight loss – I have adopted many healthy habits to change wellness in my life. Main zinda hu aur zinda rahunga. I want to address these netizens who have been claiming such things. Main bahut saal jeena chahta hu, specifically mere bachon ke liye. Yeh saare mere bachhe hi hain. I have many stories left in me, I want them to reach the audience.”
