The film producer Karan Johar, whose Dharmatic Entertainment has produced Nadaaniyan, spoke about the harsh criticism in a press conference on Tuesday. During the trailer launch of the Punjabi film Akaal, Karan Johar condemned the language used by people to criticise the film. Filmmaker Karan Johar launched Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim Ali Khan in Bollywood with his film Naadaniyan. However, the film faced criticism for its awkward dialogues and even the acting of the cast.
Karan johar's reaction on Naadaniyaan
During the event, when asked about Nadaaniyan and the trolling of Ibrahim and Khushi Kapoor, Karan said, "Main bas ye hi kahunga, ek purani film ka alfaaz hai ki kuch toh log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna... chhodo bekaar ki baatein, beet na jaaye raina" (I would just say this—there’s a famous line from an old film: People will always talk; it's their job to do so… let go of unnecessary chatter before the night slips away)."
He further added, “I genuinely respect all the critics. But when you read something, you will think they are someone's daughter and son, and their parents will also read those things. A critic wrote, 'I want to kick this film. I have a problem with those people who write this.'
Talking about his films in a humorous manner, Karan said, "I have no problem with any critic. You have your option, humari bhi Nadaaniyan hai, kuch Gustakhiyan hain toh kabhi Gehraiyaan hain (You have your opinions, and we accept them. We too have our moments of naivety, some missteps, and at times, even deep emotions)," leading to cheers from the crowd. He also said, “But when you say such things, it’s a reflection on you and not on the film.”
