I have realised that being a celebrity is a huge task as they have to face a lot of criticism for their comments and actions. And if you know anything about Bollywood, then you should know that director and producer Karan Johar gets trolled for anything and everything. In Koffee With Karan’s finale episode, Karan Johar talked about how he deals with online trolling and hate. The host of the show mentioned that he has built a thick skin over the years and all the social media trolling doesn’t really bother him. That’s the spirit, KJo!

On Thursday, Tanmay Bhat, Kusha Kapila, Danish Sait, and Niharika NM graced the finale episode of Koffee With Karan Season 8 with their presence. In the episode, which is also called ‘Koffee Awards’, host Karan Johar mentioned that getting trolled has become a part of being famous and he tries to not get bothered by it. The Student of the Year director said that after getting trolled on social media, he has built a thick skin over the years and it doesn’t bother him anymore. However, Karan added that some comments that he receives are putrid and awful and that many such comments are directed at his children and family as well.
