Filmmaker Karan Johar recently said in an interview that Ranveer Singh would be perfect to play him in a biopic.
Apart from that, he also revealed that he wanted his childhood to be portrayed on screen because he has amazing memories of the time and his parents taught him a lot of good lessons.
During the live broadcast on Roposo, when the director was asked who could best portray his role in his biopic, he replied, “I’m thinking of Ranveer Singh. He’s like a chameleon and he’ll do his best. .”
Karan was born to film producers Yash Johar and Hiroo Johar and made his directorial debut with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Later he also directed Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, My Name Is Khan, Student Of The Year, and many more.
He shared that he wanted his childhood to be shown in his biopic. How it was not only amazing but, in a way, unusual too and because of that, he had to face some challenges.
“I had a wonderful childhood. My parents were so good to me and taught me the most amazing life lessons. However, it was also a bit bumpy because I was an unusual kid and there were some emotions that I harbored as a child. I was also different from others, so I had to pay the price. It was hard, but also a very energizing time because when I look back, I feel like I learned a lot in this phase.”
Karan also revealed that even though his name is KJo, he doesn’t like the nickname and would like people to call him Karan. He shared his wish to one day have international stars Ellen DeGeneres and Meryl Streep as guests on his talk show.
