Karan Johar is right now busy with ample of projects in his hand, under his banner Dharma Productions. One of the most ambitious one is Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif starrer Sooryavanshi, directed by Rohit Shetty. Naturally, whenever the maker is spotted, he is hurled with questions regarding this starry collab for the cop universe franchise. However, these days KJo seems to be avoiding them, thanks to the controversy around it. This is what exactly happened at the recently held  1st edition of Grazia Millennial Awards ceremony. Was Akshay Kumar Unaware About Rohit Shetty and Salman Khan Preponing Sooryavanshi Release Date?.

As per our source, the filmmaker halfheartedly posed for the shutterbugs present at the red carpet of the event. While most of the celebs happily took to the stage to to interact with the media, the director kept his distance from it. When asked to comment, he avoided to interact and just posed for a few pics before going to attend the event inside.

Karan Johar Posed at the Event

The source also claims that he had done the same thing during the recently held 56th edition of the Femina Miss India event. Well, looks like the style icon does not want to get engulfed into any controversy especially after dealing with trolls for postponing Sooryavanshi's release date. We wonder if the filmmaker has to say anything on the ongoing Inshallah-Sooryavanshi issue. For the uninitiated, Sooryavanshi was supposed to release on Eid 2020 along with Salman Khan starrer Inshallah. However, the makers postponed it to 27 March 2020.
