Kangana Ranaut Discusses Her Relationship with Karan Johar and Diljit Dosanjh
Kangana Ranaut has openly shared her thoughts on her past conflicts with filmmaker Karan Johar and singer Diljit Dosanjh, expressing that while she has found peace with both, she does not feel the necessity to cultivate friendships with them.
In a recent interview with The New Indian, Kangana addressed whether she would be open to reconciling with Karan and Diljit, stating that she is at peace with them. However, she emphasized that this does not translate into a desire for friendship.
Kangana stated, “I feel at peace with them. I’m completely fine with them. If I see a remarkable project, such as Karan Johar’s Shershaah or a new release from Diljit, I appreciate their work. But do I need to be buddies or socialize with them? I don’t think that’s necessary. Do I hold anything against them? No, I genuinely don’t.”
The discord between Kangana and Diljit dates back to 2020 amid the farmers’ protests, during which Kangana accused him of provoking the demonstrations. He countered her claims, arguing for the legitimacy of the protests and engaging in a public feud with her on social media platforms.
Kangana’s contentious dynamic with Karan Johar has roots in past public disputes, notably during the 2017 season of Koffee with Karan, where she labeled him as “the flag-bearer of nepotism,” a comment that left him taken aback. Karan later clarified that his choice not to collaborate with Kangana was based on personal preference rather than her being an outsider in the industry.
Despite their differences, Kangana has expressed a potential interest in working with Karan. While participating in an episode of Indian Idol 15, she remarked, “Karan sir should consider making a movie with me. I could offer him a substantial role and create a film that steers clear of typical stereotypes and serves as more than just a PR stunt—it would be a genuine film with depth and substance.”
