Karan Johar in talks to host a dating show for Netflix

There is no denying the fact that Karan Johar is one of the coolest filmmakers in B-town. The multi-talented personality has never limited himself just to filmmaking, as he keeps exploring several other facets of entertainment whenever possible.

Apart from being a top-notch filmmaker, KJo is also known for his perfect hosting skills and the huge success of his chat show Koffee With Karan across seasons just proves that unquestionably. If reports are to be believed, KJo might turn host for yet another show, but not on television.


According to reports, Netflix is in talks with the ace filmmaker to host a dating show on their platform. Karan, who helmed a portion of the Netflix original Lust Stories last year, will be making his digital debut in front of the camera for a non-fiction show by the streamer.

“The show will be a collaboration between Netflix and BBC. Karan and the head honchos are currently at the negotiating stage. Conceived as a weekly affair, the makers intend to roll the project by mid-year. Johar, who is busy with the pre-production of Takht, can take it on floors only by November as the film’s leads Ranveer Singh and Vicky Kaushal are tied up with other commitments until then. So, he may shoot for the dating show in the interim,” a source reveals.

Meanwhile, Karan Johar is set to launch the trailer of his much-awaited production venture Kalank on 12th February.
