An old video showing the globe-trotting super-director S S Rajamouli heckling Karan Johar at a public event after Karan expresses hurt for not being given the rights for the Hindi version of RRR ,has gone viral.
In the video Rajamouli is heard saying, “I asked you to be the presenter of Baahubali films. You made tens and hundreds of crores with that. So, when a producer makes so much money, usually as a director, I expect some gifts, sir. And what did you give me? You called for your talk show. You gave me a phone and a Bluetooth speaker and you wanted the rights of RRR Hindi.”
Turns out, the whole thing was a joke.
Says a close friend of Karan Johar, “It was all a planned joke. Karan and Rajamouli had decided to pull this stunt at an event. They are very close friends constantly in touch with one another.”
