Karan Johar's Comment

In the early months of lockdown, Karan Johar was active on social media and constantly shared videos and pictures featuring his two kids, Yash and Roohi and his mother Hiroo Johar. His last post on the photo-sharing app was on June 14, which was a tribute to the late actor Sushant Sing Rajput. After receiving heavy backlash and threats for weeks, reports stated that the filmmaker is pursuing legal action against trolls.

A source close to the director told a publication, "Karan is actively pursuing legal action. A team of lawyers, as well as online tech experts, have come together to see this through. The tech people in the team are tracking the social media handles that are trying to intimidate him through violence. They want to unearth these accounts, fake and real and submit the evidence to the relevant authorities. The comments got out of hand when people started to threaten physical harm and abuse to his children and gave rape threats against his mother."
