Glamorous stars, the opulent set, the rapid fire round, it’s all there. And yet, the eighth season of Koffee with Karan is turning out to be different from its preceding instalments. From Deepika Padukone talking about battling depression to Bobby Deol reflecting on the low phase in his career, we are hearing stories of vulnerability. In the upcoming episode featuring Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday, host Karan Johar bares his heart out, talking about his friendships and falling-out.



In the section of Ask Me Anything with Karan, he reveals how Kareena Kapoor Khan and he bounced back after a fight. The two had a falling-out in 2003 over Kal Ho Naa Ho. “We didn’t speak for a year-and-a-half. It was only when my father [the late Yash Johar] was diagnosed with cancer that she called me. She was silent, I was silent. She was like, ‘I don’t know what to say.’ I told her, ‘Don’t say anything, I know you are there.’ When he passed away, she was in Bangkok, and the [minute] she landed from her shoot, she came home. We spent all night chatting. We went back to where we were,” recalls the filmmaker-host.    


In the Disney+ Hotstar offering, he also recollects how Kajol and he hugged and made up two years after the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil-Shivaay clash. “We hadn’t spoken in two years. When Yash and Roohi were born, I just sent her their images. I said, ‘You don’t need to reply, but these are what my children look like.’ She messaged back, saying, ‘I am full of love right now.’ A month later, she said, ‘It’s my birthday, you don’t have to come.’ But I went. We hugged, we cried, and it was done.”
