The feud between Kangana Ranaut and Karan Johar is no secret to anyone. It all started back during the actor’s appearance in season 5 of ‘Koffee With Karan’ when she publically targeted the host and filmmaker calling him the ‘flagbearer of nepotism’.
The rivalry continued and the two went on to give statements against each other in interviews and on social media.
However, contrary to their equation, Johar recently said that he is excited to watch her upcoming film ‘Emergency’, which also marks her debut as a solo director of a feature.

When asked about a political event that he wishes to watch in a film, the ‘Rocky Aur Rani kii Prem Kahaani’ director replied, “The Emergency is being made and I am excited to watch it.”
Reacting to a headline of his statement on X(previously termed as Twitter), a movie distributor posted, “Really? Change of heart.” To which, the ‘Queen’ actor responded, “Ha ha last time when he said he was excited to see Manikarnika, the worse smear campaign of my life was unleashed upon me on its releasing weekend … almost all main actors working in the film were paid to sling mud on me and sabotage the film and suddenly the most successful weekend of my life was turned in to a living nightmare for me…”
