Kangana Ranaut, known for her bold and outspoken nature, has once again made headlines for calling out Karan Johar for his confession of wanting to kill Anushka Sharma's career. In a subtle yet scathing Instagram post, the actress indirectly refers to Johar as "jobless" and someone who loves to give opinions on everything. Ranaut's post comes after writer Apurva Asrani and filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri expressed their shock and disbelief over Johar's casual approach to making and breaking people's careers.
The controversy began when a video of Karan Johar's appearance on a talk show went viral. In the video, Johar can be seen admitting to wanting to sabotage Anushka Sharma's career after she rejected his film. Johar's statement sparked outrage in the industry, with many questioning his ethics as a filmmaker and his attitude towards outsiders in the industry.

Kangana Ranaut's Subtle Jibe At Karan Johar
In her Instagram post, Kangana Ranaut takes a subtle jibe at Karan Johar, indirectly referring to him as "jobless" and someone who loves to give opinions on everything. Ranaut's post reads, "Ye Chacha Choudhary ka kaam hai, nahi kar sakte toh opinion chhod do."
The reference to "Chacha Choudhary" is a well-known Indian comic book character who is known for his intelligence and problem-solving abilities. However, the use of the term in this context suggests that Johar is jobless and has nothing better to do than give opinions on everything.
Ranaut's post is a clear indication of her disapproval of Johar's actions and attitude towards outsiders in the industry. The actress has been a vocal critic of the industry's nepotism and has often spoken out against those who promote it. Her recent post is yet another example of her speaking out against what she believes to be unfair practices in the industry.
Industry Insiders Slam Karan Johar
Kangana Ranaut is not the only one to have spoken out against Karan Johar. Writer Apurva Asrani and filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri have also expressed their shock and disbelief over Johar's casual approach to making and breaking people's careers.
Asrani took to Twitter to express his views on the matter, saying, "It's disturbing to hear someone admit to destroying someone else's career, especially when they're already successful. What makes it worse is to see the audience laugh it off as a joke. It's not funny, it's cruel."
Agnihotri, in a series of tweets, also expressed his outrage over Johar's confession. He wrote, "It's high time that we call out these so-called industry insiders who have made it their hobby to make and break people's careers. It's time we stand up for outsiders who have talent and potential but are denied opportunities because of these people."
The industry's reaction to Johar's statement is a clear indication of how the filmmaker is losing his credibility as a filmmaker. His casual approach to making and breaking careers has not gone down well with many in the industry, and it remains to be seen how audiences will react to his upcoming project, "Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani," starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt.
