Karan Johar Says Koffee With Karan Has Become Milder Due to Celebrity PR Concerns
Karan Johar has acknowledged that over the years, Koffee With Karan has become a milder and more cautious show due to increased concerns about potential PR backlash. He noted that early seasons featured simpler setups without publicists or managers, unlike today where celebrity guests often bring teams and request post-edit clearances to avoid controversies. This shift reflects a broader change in celebrity culture, with guests being more guarded to prevent statements from causing public relations issues.
