Amid feud with Kangana Ranaut, Karan Johar made a startling remark about the former's slap incident at the Chandigarh airport.
Kangana Ranaut and Karan Johar’s infamous feud has been one of the most gossiped matters in Tinseltown. It all happened when the diva seemingly ignored the filmmaker, who was hosting the ceremony, while receiving an award for one of her films. Later on, the actress has revealed innumerable times how much she was mistreated and judged by Karan during the initial years of her career. Later on, in 2017, Kangana graced the show, Koffee With Karan and blatantly claimed how Karan Johar appeared to her as a ‘movie mafia’ and ‘flagbearer of nepotism’. Since then, there has been absolute no-communication between Karan Johar and Kangana Ranaut.
In a surprising turn of events, Karan Johar made a startling remark over his alleged nemesis, Kangana Ranaut. Well, the filmmaker recently graced the trailer launch event for the film, Kill Dil, which is under his production house. During the same, Karan was asked by one of the media personnel to react over the fiasco of Kangana Ranaut getting slapped by a CISF official at the Chandigarh airport. To this, Karan gave a subtle smile and answered with a strictly neutral reply. In his words:
“Dekhiye, I don't support or condone any form of violence, verbal or physical.”

This hasn’t been the first time that any member of the film fraternity has come up front and reacted to the incident of Kangana Ranaut getting slapped at the Chandigarh airport. Before this, it was her ex-boyfriend, Adhyayan Suman and his father, Shekhar Suman, who reacted to the incident. During an event, the latter shared his point of view, while Adhyayan wholeheartedly agreed to the same. Condemning the matter, Shekhar had said:
“Ye bahut hi durbhagyapurn hai aur aisa kisi ke sath nahi hona chahiye. Ye gair kanooni hai jo unhone kiya hai. Iski saza unko milni chahiye. Main samajh sakta hu ki unke mann mein koi virodh tha ya koi shikayat thi lekin usko izhaar karne ka tarika bahut galat tha. Ek sabhya tarike se bhi wo kaha jaa sakta tha. Aagey aa kar wo shayad gusse mein bhi baat kahi jaa sakti thi par iss tarha se aap kisi par hath nahi utha sakte.”
Ever since Kangana Ranaut openly called out the film fraternity for not showing support to her being attacked without any reason, despite being an elected MP, it seems several unlikely names from Bollywood has finally come up front to share their views. For instance, on June 8, 2024, independent journalist, Fayed D’Souza penned a lengthy note on his social media handle, where she expressed regret over Kangana Ranaut getting attacked. However, what caught everyone’s attention was the fact that the post was liked by none other than the actress’ alleged ex-beau, Hrithik Roshan.

Right after news spread about Kangana Ranaut getting attacked by a CISF security personnel at the Chandigarh airport, the diva and elected MP of Mandi took to her IG handle and shared a first-hand reaction to the whole matter. Citing how the woman slapped her for showing no support to the farmer’s protest earlier, Kangana said:
“Namaste doston, mujhe bohot zyada phone calls aa rahe hai, media ke bhi aur mere shubhchintakon ke bhi. Sabse pehle toh I am safe, I am perfectly fine. Aaj Chandigarh airport par jo haadsa hua wo security check ke saath mein hua. Wahan pe main security check kar ke jaise hi nikli toh dusre cabin mein jo mahila thi, jo suraksha karamchari thi, CISF ki, unhone unko cross karne ka intezaar kiya aur side se aa kar mujhe face pe hit kiya aur gaaliyan dene lagi. Aur jab maine unko pucha ki unhone aisa kyu kiya toh unhone kaha ki wo farmer's protest ko jo hai support karti hai aur I am safe but my concern is ke jo aantakwaad ugrawaad hai Punjab mein badh raha hai, how do we handle that?"
