What: The word ‘nepotism’ was unknown to most people in the country. But after Kangana Ranaut dropped it on Season 5 of Koffee With Karan in February 2017, the term became widely known to one and all. Hence, it’ll be interesting to know that Karan Johar’s upcoming show on Disney+ Hotstar, Showtime, is based on nepotism in Bollywood.
Furthermore: This significant information was shared by Gaurav Banerjee, Head – Content, Disney+ Hotstar & HSM Entertainment Network, Disney Star, at the trailer launch of Kajol’s upcoming web series, The Trial. Gaurav Banerjee continued, “Kajol’s bestie Karan Johar is making another interesting show for us, Showtime, which is about nepotism in Bollywood. He knows something about it, I guess (laughs)!”
We say: Must doff our hats off to KJo. Trust him to pick a ‘burning’ subject like ‘nepotism’ for his series that will instantly grab the eyeballs for it’s controversial content. Wonder what Madam Kangana has to say about this?
