Recently,
Karan
Johar
while
speaking
at
the
Times
Literature
Festival,
opened
up
about
why
we
get
to
see
very
few
friendships
existing
in
Bollywood.
The
film-maker
said
that
he
feels
people
from
the
movie
industry
are
lost
with
the
kind
of
expectations
they
carry.
He
added
that
since
there
is
so
much
else
actors
have
to
deal
with,
that
they
usually
end
up
having
temporary
friendships
instead
of
long
standing
ones.
He
was
quoted
saying,
"Movie
people
just
don't
have
friends.
They
have
so
much
else
to
deal
with.
I
find
that
about
film
actors
particularly,
that
they
don't
have
friends.
They
don't
have
a
lot
of
friendships
and
the
ones
they
have,
they
are
actually
seasonal.
They
go
from
film
to
film.
I've
been
a
friend
who
has
been
a
seasonal
friend,
I've
also
made
some
seasonal
friends.
I
do
know
what
that
feels
like."
He
further
added,
"Everyone's
lost
in
the
film
industry.
Every
day
you
are
combating
expectations,
success
is
always
expected
of
you,
there
is
so
much
baggage
that
you
carry.
There
is
daily
reportage
of
what
you
wear,
say,
or
don't
say."
KJo
said
that
many
industry
people
are
just
not
equipped
to
carry
a
relationship.
He
was
quoted
saying,
"I
think
many
of
us
are
unequipped
to
handle
our
relationships
because
of
who
we
are.
Sometimes
it
is
because
of
our
intense
megalomania,
sometimes
because
we
are
delusional..."
The
film-maker
hopes
one
change
within
the
industry
should
be
"the
ability
to
nurture
our
friendships.
We
just
do
not
know
how
to
make
friends," he
said.
He
concluded,
"It
is
not
impossible.
Every
relationship
is
difficult.
It
takes
working
on
(it)
and
I
feel
a
lot
of
people
from
within
the
industry
don't
do
that,
because
it's
all
about
themselves.
"You
cannot
make
life
about
yourself.
It
has
to
be
about
the
people
who
surround
you,
or
else
you're
going
to
be
irrelevant
very
soon."
