Karan Johar dons many hats. He is a successful filmmaker, screenwriter, and, also, talk show host. In addition to being all of that, he is also a doting father to his two twins Yash and Roohi whom he welcomed through surrogacy in 2017.
KJo never fails to share updates about his two adorable kids on social media. His Instagram feed is filled with pictures and videos of his kids, which have garnered thousands of likes. While many people love the way how he is fulfilling his parental duties singlehandedly, there are a few people who perhaps have yet not come to terms with the concept of single parenting and keep trolling the filmmaker every now and then for raising his kids as a single parent.
Recently, KJo himself opened up about being a single father and revealed that many people from within the industry and his close circle told him not to become a single parent amid his hectic work schedule.
“I think, they all thought that maybe it was too much for me to handle, given my schedule. I don’t think they were saying it for societal reasons. But I just knew I was ready to be a parent. I just knew I was ready to give a piece of my heart away. And which is what I have done with my two children. I think one big piece of my heart is them and one big piece of my heart is my mum. And I feel like that love quotient is satisfied,” the filmmaker said.
He went on to add that being a single parent is nothing to do with his relationship status. “You’ll know you want to be a parent when you’re emotionally ready. The two are not related at all. It’s not that because I don’t have love in my life, I should have kids,” he concluded.
Meanwhile, Karan Johar can be currently seen hosting the seventh season of his hugely popular talk show host Koffee With Karan on Disney+ Hotstar.
He is also working on his next directorial venture Rocky and Rani Ki Prem Kahan, starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in lead roles.

The Dhurandhar title track just hit the internet, and the noise around this spy thriller just went up a few notches. This is the track that pulls rapper Hanumankind into his first proper Bollywood playback moment. They have taken the old folk number 'Jogi' and built a power-packed version around it, a mix of earthy roots and straight-up aggressive energy that hits like a truck. It fits, honestly. It mirrors the film's whole gritty vibe and Ranveer Singh's battle-hardened look with that wild beard.

What is the Dhurandhar title track about?
You get a proper blast of the film’s atmosphere from this track. The music video cuts fast between shots of a heavily bearded and muscular Ranveer Singh, looking every bit the part of a hardened operative. The video cuts to the other big names in the cast as well. Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal are all there in what appears to be a tense, dark situation. The music includes traditional Punjabi folk with a stronger, cinematic rhythm.
How did Hanumankind get involved in the Dhurandhar song?
It turns out his involvement was a pretty organic, almost spontaneous thing. Music composer Shashwat Sachdev opened up about how the rap section came together. Apparently, it happened during a late-night studio session with director Aditya Dhar and Hanumankind himself. They captured an impromptu performance that just clicked, bringing what Sachdev called a "raw, instinctive fire" to the whole track. For an artist known for his independent work, this Dhurandhar feature is a major step into the mainstream film scene.
All this build-up is heading towards a definite date. The makers confirmed it right at the end of the title track video. Dhurandhar is locked in for a worldwide theatrical release on 5 December of this year. For those who need more than a song to tide them over, the official trailer is promised for 12 November.
