Karan Johar revealed in a recent conversation that he was advised by friends to move abroad to find love, but the suggestion never resonated with him because he feels deeply rooted in India with his mother and two children. He expressed a profound sense of loneliness despite being surrounded by family and friends, emphasizing that humans are "meant to be a unit of two." Reflecting on love and companionship, he said, "Rab ne mere liye jodi nahi banayi" (God hasn't made a match for me), adding a hopeful note that if true love comes his way, he would embrace it openly. Karan also shared that his experiences with love have been turbulent, involving heartbreak and one-sided love, and that his film "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" was a cathartic way to heal through storytelling. He highlighted that the partnership and sharing of life's simple moments in love differ significantly from relationships with parents or children, underscoring the unique emotional space a partner occupies[1][2][10]. Furthermore, Karan has publicly acknowledged feeling lonely even in social contexts and relationships, explaining that he keeps many thoughts inside, which adds to his solitude. Despite these feelings, he does not describe himself as unhappy and has a strong bond with his children and mother[8]. This candid revelation offers insight into the personal struggles behind the public persona of a filmmaker known for iconic romantic stories, showing the complexity between his art and personal life.
