Koffee with Karan, one show that triggered biggest controversies in this Bollywood industry, in which stars revealed shocking secrets, is about to get an inglorious end? Well, if media reports has to be believed then, Koffee With Karan is walking dead towards its end as Star World, which was the platform for the chat show, is no longer existent in India and now with Sushant Singh’s sudden demise, the Star has demanded it to be permanently shut.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, a source close to the production revealed, “Plans to shut down Star World were afoot for some time now. And Star had decided to move Karan Johar’s chat show to another channel owned by the group. But now with all the unsavoury controversy surrounding the chat show after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Star has decided to close it down.”
The decision to end the show is also driven because of Sushant Singh Rajput’s sudden demise. The infamous chat show was popular for backbiting and bitching and Karan also pushed the stars to create controversies by commenting and passing derogatory remarks. Several stars including Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor, not to mention Hardik Pandya, got into deep trouble, and made headlines because of the show. About the whole concept, Ranbir stood against Karan and commented once, “I told him (Karan) I don’t want to come. Me and Anushka actually are going to protest and get the entire film industry together to stop this because it’s not fair. He’s making money out of us. We come and we get screwed through the air. It’s not right.”
