Filmmaker Karan Johar has been trolling since Friday morning and a hashtag with his name has been trending. This follows the notification from the Bureau of Narcotics Control (NCB) to Johar the day before, regarding the alleged drug party at his residence in 2019. The NCB had received a complaint regarding the video of a party, attended by top Bollywood stars, including Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, and Varun Dhawan, last year.
As soon as news broke online that Johar had been summoned by the NCB, netizens began to harass the filmmaker, who is often the victim of online abuse.
“Koffee with NCB. This must be really interesting than your ridiculous koffe show with #KaranJohar,” one user tweeted. “Roses are red … Violets are blue … Let’s destroy their egos together You and me … Let’s clean up BOLLYWOOD You and me #KaranJohar,” wrote another user.
“They are wah … You may be powerful … but despite all that power, one day you will have to pay for all your sins .. #karanjohar”, expressed another user.
After the video went viral, Johar had issued a public statement in relation to that video, saying the reports of drug use at his party were defamatory and malicious.
Johar was subjected to immense trolling on social media after the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput earlier this year. The filmmaker was targeted by netizens for allegedly spreading nepotism within the film industry. Netizens once again brought up the topic on Friday, venting their anger at the filmmaker.
One user said: “Has #NCB given time for #KaranJohar to erase evidence from his home? Why not a sudden raid? It’s an eye wash. #JusticeForSushantSinghRajput #BollywoodMafia #BoycottBollywoodDruggies.” (sic)
The NCB, over the past few months, has questioned various film personalities regarding separate drug cases related to the death of Sushant Singh Rajput and other cases. Johar was asked to share the details before Friday.
