Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, who featured in the opening episode of Koffee With Karan 8, were heavily trolled. The 83 actor was caught red-handed for 'copy-pasting' an old story of how he met the Pathaan actress for the first time, while she was denounced for her 'casual dating' remark.
In the most recent eigth episode of the celebrity chat show, which had Aditya Roy Kapur and Arjun Kapoor as guests, Karan Johar shared that the reaction to the first episode had 'angered' him. "I felt that it was one of the most honest episodes and the most heartfelt episodes I did with Deepika and Ranveer. I think all three of kind of came clean on so much of our emotional heft, so many of our feelings. And then there was a ridiculous kind of aftereffect", he said.
The Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani director further added, "I just want to put it out there that episode angered me, and the reaction angered me. I thought it was one of our best episodes. They were outstandingly honest. They were earnest. They spoke so much. They shared so much. They were so gracious. And then you're f***ing talking about some nonsense. I am like, ‘What do you know about somebody else’s personal life and marraige? 'Tu apne ghar pe dekh na (Look at what's happening at your own home) is what I wanted to tell them. I wanted to show them my f***ing middle finger! I am like, you know, just shut up."
The new episodes of Koffee With Karan 8 start streaming on Disney+ Hotstar on every Thursday at 12 am. Other actors who have been a part of this season so far include Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Vicky Kaushal, Kiara Advani, Sara Ali Khan, Rani Mukerji, Kajol, Ananya Panday, Bobby Deol, Sunny Deol, Sidharth Malhotra, and Varun Dhawan.
