After Priyanka Chopra gave that shocking interview to American actor Dax Randall Shepard, Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut came in support of her and said that Karan Johar is an “obnoxious, jealous, mean and toxic person” who should be held accountable for ruining the culture and environment of the film industry.
This is what @priyankachopra has to say about bollywood, people ganged up on her, bullied her and chased her out of film industry” a self made woman was made to leave India. Everyone knows Karan Johar had banned her (1/2) https://t.co/PwrIm0nni5

Now, an old video of Karan Johar talking about wanting to end Anushka Sharma’s career has gone viral online. It was during the 18th MAMI Mumbai Film Festival back in 2016 when Karan sat on the sofa with Anushka and Aishwarya Rai for an on-stage interaction with Rajeev Masand and Anupama Chopra.
During their conversation, Karan revealed that he wanted to ‘murder’ Anushka’s career initially because he reportedly wanted another actress (Sonam Kapoor) to work in the film ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’.
“I totally wanted to, completely murder Anushka Sharma’s career. Because when Aditya Chopra showed me her image, I was like, ‘no, no, mad or what, you signing her, you crazy! There is no need for you to sign this Anushka Sharma’. There was another lead actress at that time who I wanted Adi to sign and I was totally behind the scene sabotaging her completely. The movie also I was reluctantly watching ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’.” (sic)
However, he had a change of heart when he saw Anushka’s performance in ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’. This is when he thought of apologizing to her.
“But when I saw ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’, I called her and I felt like I owed her an apology and a compliment. Apology because I felt so embarrassed that I would have actually ruined the graph of an exceptional talent and secondly, a compliment because I thought she was amazing.”
This short clip made it to Reddit.
