Karan Johar shared a note on his official Twitter account announcing his future project. He did not, however, reveal the cast. He penned, “I turned 50 today (a number that seemed like a distant nightmare), while I know it’s kind of a mid-point of my life but I can’t help my wannabe millennial self from existing. Some call it a mid-life crisis, I proudly call it just ‘living life without any apologies’. I have worked in the movie industry for over 27 years and I’m blessed to have had the best experience ever!!! Telling stories, creating content, nurturing talent and watching the finest artists perform in front of my privileged eye…These years are like being in a massive dream that made all the sleeplessness seem worthwhile! I’m grateful for the brickbats, bouquets, the praising souls, the public trolls…All of it!!! It’s all been a huge part of my learning curve and self growth. The one aspect that I believe I am most passionate about is being a filmmaker! In the past I have always taken long gaps between my films but today on this special day I would like to announce my next directorial feature…Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani will be released on 10 February 2023 and I will commence the shoot of my action film in April 2023.”
On Tuesday night, Karan Johar threw a birthday bash for himself. Farah Khan, Gauri Khan, Seema Khan, Maheep Kapoor, and Manish Malhotra were among the celebrities that attended the black-themed rooftop party.
