Karan Johar announces dating show Whole Lotta Love with Netflix on 47th birthday
Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar has turned 47th today. On the special occasion, KJo announced his next project, which is not going to be a film or a TV series. Instead, Karan will host a dating show titled What The Love on video-streaming platform Netflix. He has already played a love guru-cum-cupid in a radio show last year, where he even talked to many Bollywood celebrities and gave them advices related to relationships. Netflix India's Twitter handle announced the news on social media with a tweet wishing Karan Johar on his birthday.
It reads, "This is probably not how presents work but on the occasion of his birthday we've decided to gift ourselves a dating show hosted by Karan Johar. 'What The Love? With Karan Johar."
Karan, who already has a television talk show "Koffee with Karan", replied to the tweet saying: "Where there's chemistry, there's always a way! Can't wait to join the Netflix India family and spread a whole lotta love! @BBCStudiosIndia #BBCStudiosIndia #BBCProduction."
The son of Hiroo Johar and veteran filmmaker Yash Johar had made his directorial debut with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998. He later helmed movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, My Name Is Khan and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. He will be directing a period drama Takht which stars Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Vicky Kaushal in important roles.
Celebrities including Rishi Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor and Sunny Leone showered love on him on social media by describing him as the "love guru" and "the man who redefined romance in India".
