Not everyone can crack a joke at his own expense. But then, not everyone has a self-deprecating sense of humour like Karan Johar either. The multi-faceted filmmaker, who has allowed guests on his chat show to crack jokes at his expense, has apparently taken a dig at his 2019 debacle, Kalank, in his upcoming production, Jug Jugg Jeeyo. Helmed by Raj Mehta, the family entertainer stars Varun Dhawan, Anil Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor and Kiara Advani. We hear a scene shows two central characters get into a theatre showing Kalank. Since they want to have a private discussion, they feel the theatre is the best place for the rendezvous as Kalank is playing to near-empty cinemas. While it’s not known who are the two actors in the scene, it would be interesting if one of them is Varun, who also featured in Kalank.
