Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar reflected on the growing social media and paparazzi culture, questioning the impact on celebrities and cinema.
Taking to Instagram Stories, he asked if stars are now reduced to “reels, clickbait headlines, and paparazzi spotting” and admitted, “Yes we are!”
He urged a shift from the smartphone screen to the silver screen, emphasizing the importance of storytelling and filmmaking over social media distractions, adding humorously that his musings came “whilst feeling a bout of nausea whilst doom scrolling.”
Despite his critique, KJo remains active online, sharing personal updates with fans. Recently, he playfully revealed his “newfound love” for AI, referring to ChatGPT as his “new lover.” He admitted being initially hesitant about AI but has grown fond of it, jokingly hoping the relationship isn’t one-sided.
The posts reflect Johar’s mix of introspection and humor, highlighting both the pressures of digital culture and his continued enthusiasm for creativity and technology. (IANS)
